I should have bitten my tongue!

So, I am at the water cooler in my office and I bump into one of my colleagues, who is Nepalese.

We chat for a minute and it pops up he recently got married.

So I go, congratulations, blah blah blah, then ask him "did you marry a Japanese lady"? He goes, "no, a Nepalese lady", to which I am a bit surprised since I know he's been here a few years and it is rare to find other Nepalese people.

The obvious question I had to ask was then: "how did you guys meet?" and he answers … "oh, we didn't meet, it's an arranged marriage. My parents took care of it".

So, rather than shutting my mouth and say "congratulations again", I pat him on the shoulder and say …































































































































































I hope you like her ….

Well done Biggie!

foot in mouth

Couldn't have done it better myself !!!

I said it so spontaneously, I was amazed




In fairness, he took it in stride

but do they live together or he just got married and she lives in Nepal?

She is now in the US, finishing her degree or something like that. Seems he bagged a rather young lady. He's not old but probably in his mid/late thirties.

nice one BF - at least he took it well

Nice one BF. Both feet planted in mouth !!!

Big feet in mouth

Sounds like a nice young (pliable) girl, and if she can cook and clean too... bingo!

I know a couple who went through an arranged marriage, they're made for each other, and you wouldn't think for one moment that they didn't fall in love traditionally.
