Just curious--- why do people delay rukhsatis? What's the point? I've got my sociological theories but I still wonder what reasons people give.

That's a rather broad generalization and frankly, a little offensive. I married the love of my life, and if I had found him in the Fiji Islands I'd have married and brought him here just like I am doing now.
Sadly in Pakistani culture most people have a Rukhsati before marriage can begin. Marriage is cohabitation. The government wants to make sure it's a genuine marriage and not one of convenience therefore they require Rukhsati. You don't have to have one so long as the married couple can show they lived together for a bit after nikkah which technically is the legal form of marriage in Pakistani law as well.
oh sorry I'm really not trying to be offensive. I have just generally seen that Pakistani parents of these first gen Pak-Canadians tend to want their kids marrying their brother or sister's kids back home. I am not saying that in a negative way at all, I'm sorry my actual tone isn't getting through lol I am really just curious. I am in that boat, so I can't be against it haha.

I believe people should marry for love, not because their parents are forcing them to marry their siblings' kids. I met my husband 9 years ago during a summer visit to the city I was born in. He is an amazing human being and we fell in love. Due to our circumstances in life, we couldn't be together for too long and then a few years back we got back together and decided to make our relationship a priority in our life. All I know is that love comes in all shapes, sizes, colours, genders and nationalities. We often cannot help it and that is why I am sure people are stuck in highly stressful long distance relationships. Hope all lovers are reunited soon
I love your view about love lol! Hoping the process moves along quickly for you iA! I know everyone here is really anxious to be united with their loved ones, can't image what you guys are going through right now but I may in the near future lol just skimming this forum to get a feel for whats possibly in store.I believe people should marry for love, not because their parents are forcing them to marry their siblings' kids.

This too sounds offensive, to all those who married their cousins. It seems to imply that parents only ever force their children to marry their siblings' kids, and everyone who marries their cousin is forced.I believe people should marry for love, not because their parents are forcing them to marry their siblings' kids.

Stupid VO writes the reasons " Relationship is not genuine" and " This marriage is a marriage of convenience"
PA got refused.
