"Call him Bhaiyya": Woman horrified after the aunt set her with cousin | Today news

“Sundar Ladkiyaan Rishtedari Mein Hi Rehni Chahiye” (Beautiful girls should stay within the family (for marriage), why they give away outside)-The statement of a distinguishable family left an 18-year-old arrangement after her Facebook post made lovingly by her mother, in an unpaved and impeccable marriage proposal. What started as a lovely online gesture quickly snowed in the drama when Aunt J-a family member, the post saw and decided that the teenager was “just perfect” for her 24-year-old son. The boy described as a ‘typical rich, snobby, single child’ was not only much older, but someone who called the teenager ‘Bhaiya’, according to her viral reddit post. The shocking turn in a beautiful turn, the teenager realized: “So this 24-year-old guy and I’m actually blood-related cousins.” The disturbing implication? If she accepted the proposal, the family would “try to set us up” for a genetically risky trade union. While the family pressure was on track, the teenager made her position clear, citing moral and medical reasons: “I don’t want Tedhe Medhe Bachhe.” (Genetically confused children.) Fortunately, her father supports her pursuit of independence and success, rather than getting married in wealth for status. Although deeply disturbing, the incident has become a viral anecdote for many people who went wrong and snapped in modern times – and went wrong. Scregrab of the viral post. Here’s how social media responds: A user wrote: “The same ridiculous thing that happened last year. So we went to see this potential groom for my older sister, right? Fairly normal. The man looked decent enough, and he also had a younger sister. My dad and uncle looked like he liked him, so the families just tried to find out when I met my sister and the man.” “But then, from the nowhere, the man’s mother suddenly turns to my mother and goes:” Why don’t we just engage your son – how – for my daughter too? “Like, what?! We were only 18 or 19! “I just sat there like,” Excuse me, on what timeline are you, lady? “Thank God that my father had none of it and rejected the idea immediately. Another user praised the woman’s storytelling skills: “Out of the subject, but I admire your storytelling skills. You have a way with words. Have you tried to write stories, poems, anything? I can see the potential,” they wrote. First published: 12 Apr 2025, 02:22 PM IST
