Lately I’ve been thinking about how other cultures handle marriage, and I can’t help but wonder if they’ve figured something out that we haven’t.
Take the Indians I work with for example. Most of them already have a wife lined up back home. Their families handle it, they marry young, and the women are usually decent-looking, traditional, and focused on building a family. No dating apps, no body count, no delusions of being a boss babe.
Compare that to what we deal with in the West. You waste years dating women with more red flags than a Chinese military parade, only for them to hit the wall and still expect a guy to settle down and worship them.
Mail order brides seem like a logical alternative. You skip the nonsense, pick from a pool of women who actually want to be wives, and start a family without fighting an uphill battle. It’s basically like buying a car. You look for reliability and low mileage. Why pretend it’s anything else?
Of course, there are risks. You don’t want to end up bringing in some chick who’s just looking for a visa or already has a boyfriend waiting in the background.
Still, is this really desperation, or is it just a rational response to a broken system? Curious what others think. Is this a legitimate path forward, or just another cope?
