In an arranged marriage setting, women would most likely interact with a handful of men before finding the right one. Usually, they would share the details of the men they talked to with their friends and maybe ask for suggestions in deciding "the one." Strangely, here’s an anonymous woman who sought help on social media.
The Twitter post shares a screenshot of an anonymous woman asking netizens to find the right guy from a list of 14 men with whom she has been talking on matrimonial platforms. The woman confesses that she was a 29-year-old B.Com. graduate who was currently not working. She revealed she was talking to 14 guys and was confused about choosing the right one.

With this, she sought help from the netizens to help her choose the "right guy" among the 14 men. The post went viral, and Twitter users responded with hilarious comments.
The woman listed out the guys along with their age, the company they work for, the city they were currently living in, and their income. The list consisted of 14 men with an annual package of 14 lakhs to 45 lakhs per annum. She also specifically mentioned the height of one man and another man being bald.
Comments swept in as soon as the post started going viral. One user pointed out that arranged marriages can be the most humiliating experience anyone could go through, regardless of gender, citing the girl's mention of one man being bald and another being of a certain height.
Another user wrote that "despite passing her prime years," she had so many options to choose from. They noted how this revealed how the marriage market was heavily skewed towards women. A third user tweeted that it was alarming and saddening, as arranged marriages have become more like transactions these days.
A lot of users also pointed out how unrealistic the post was. They called it fake and stated that it could probably be someone's sick idea of how arranged marriage worked for women.
