Tingling with excitement the big day had arrived Goosebumps on her arms anticipating his charms But he’d changed his mind another he’d find Flowed her jilted tears ~ she'd never shift gears

So sad ..... ! In our country, it will be a surprise for you to know that most of the marriages are arranged with or without knowing each other directly!

My 2nd marriage was arranged, but I met my bride-to-be a few times before the wedding. So far, so good. 27 years this summer...

She was a fool. I had to say it.

I guess this one could be retitled: 'The Ecstasy and the Agony,' eh?! Thanks, Kim. :)

Sad one for the bride to be, but someday she might find someone who would be proud to have her as his wife. I enjoyed reading this one today. Sara

I sincerely hope that the jilted bride finds happiness too, Sara. 'It ain't easy,' as they say in my neck of the woods...
