I am from India and belong to a conservative Muslim family. My boyfriend lives in the same city but his family is less conservative. Other than that, however, our families are compatible and he and I have seriously discussed our future together a few times. When we are ready, our respective families will meet and decide whether we should get married or not. It sounds messed up, but that is how it is.
We decided that when the time comes, he needs to talk to his parents first since if I tell mine first, they will expect a formal proposal from his family and a meeting to be arranged soon after.
