I have just one girl in my life, my niece(mother's brothers's daughter). She is doing her second B.Sc (Com. Sci.) in Madras.

We are great friends for now, but I have been engaged to her. :

Iniyan! She is ur cousin (mother's brother's daughter) not ur neice.. In some cultures u can marry in family.. i-e cousins etc..

B) yup right ,she is her cousin,but that doesnt change the fact that they r going to get married

: : : [/b]

: : : That is certainly amusing

B) what is so funny about it ,remember india is country with a lot of traditions and faith, mixed together.

 

[bharat]

[andrew_nixon]

The funny thing is the words "she is her cousin" when talking about iniyan.

B) now i am understand ,it was a stupid mistake ,thats all.

i thought these guys were making fun of iniyan.

anyway i am sorry guys

 

[nikhilverma]

Never mind :

Oh I see that she is my cousin!!

BTW, how do you relate nephew/neice to us?

It is common here to call how I did.

 

[andrew_nixon]

Your nephew is your brother/sisters son, your neice would be their daughter.

eg. My sister has a (nearly) 3 year old son. He is my nephew.

But my dad's sister's daughter is my cousin.

Got it.

But, here can people marry their neice. Like, I could marry my sister's daughter. That is the only possibility though.

 

[debjitr]

oh ok... I was freaked out lol.about that neice thingy

. I was arranged when i was like 4 lol.. but now im 20 and i refused to marry my cousin. I was really young when i came to usa, so my thinking have changed now. but the irony bout arrange merriages r that they do work out lol.. I hope u all had great valentine's day.

We've already established that......

 

[ricky123]

B) do they celebrate val.day in pakistan

 

[andrew_nixon]

Not offcially. The fact that it is Saint Valentine's day indicates it's Christian connections.
