* Dear itelmoonkiks:

It reads to me that you feel very strongly for this young man. Having read about arranged marriages on this Forum from a dozen of people, or more, I learned that the young person in such families is often very obedient. No matter how unhappy about the arranged marriage, no matter if the person loves another, obedience is so strong, that the person proceeds with the arranged marriage.

Of all the stories I read here, none of the young people rebelled and left their family in favor of someone they loved. Instead, they went along with the arranged marriage.

Keep this in mind and try to get more information about his state of mind before you travel to Canada. If you travel to Canada. I would like you to be realistic and not lost in what may be unrealistic wishful thinking and hoping and dreaming.
