My parents were in an arranged marriage in China, they argue like every week. They are toxic af.

I wonder if people who freely choose their partners have less toxic families… 🤔

    People actually do arranged marriages. Wow.

    They were born around 1960 to 1980. This is in some village in Guangdong Province, PRC.

    People back in the days do arranged marriage, that’s just how the world was, societu has been like that for centuries 🤷‍♂️ “free love” is only a recent thing (as far as I know)

      That’s not “back in the day”. My parents are older than that and they didn’t have an arranged marriage. They are good people. My grandparents did have an arranged marriage and they were good people too.
