Why is this arranged marriage process so shitty?
I am just going to yap in this post. I am 26 F and I have around 7-8 lpa which is very very low I get that. I did pursue other courses for further promotions and I am looking for a job change.
My parents had made my shadi profile back in 2021 and they have been looking for guys. I didn't pay much attention back then but now it's 2025 and they are so desperate. I couldn't care less tbh. If I get married then good but if I don't that's fine too.
One thing about me I have got gorgeous like really beautiful hair till my waist and my height is 5'4 and on a good day it's 5'5. I am mentioning this cause I keep getting requests from bald men or men who have started balding. Yeah judge me all you want but no I am not going to marry a bald man even if I have to stay single for the rest of my life. If he starts losing hair after marriage I can suggest some treatments for him or accept my fate.
It's so fcking frustrating. These 5'1 or 5'4 guys send requests while I have clearly mentioned that I want guys above 5'8 height. I love to wear heels and it's not like I am asking for someone who's 6'4. I got frustrated today and I asked a guy why the fck did you even call me when I have mentioned that I am not looking for a guy who's shorter than me he was 4'9.
He said that he can tell his friends that HE CLIMBED ME! like what the hell? I told my parents to stop this crap as I am tired of looking but they won't listen. Why the fuck is marriage so important??
Guys who match hair and height criteria usually earn way less than me like 1 lpa or if they are earning around my salary or more than our kundalis don't match or they are not from my caste. I don't give a damn about castes but my parents are fixated on it. If someone everything checks and we talk then that guy is still stuck on his ex or is a misogynist or being forced into marriage. I liked a guy but his parents asked for dowry and I said no. My parents are really angry with me cause I keep rejecting guys.
Chat gpt TLDR(which i shortened): parents have been actively seeking marriage proposals since 2021, but I am indifferent to marriage and feel frustrated by the process. I have rejected several proposals, leading to tension with their parents, who are upset by their choices. A guy who's 4'9 told me that HE CAN TELL HIS FRIENDS THAT HE EFFING CLIMBED ME.
Judge all you want idc.
