Relationships/Marriages have changed since 1650. They had Arrange Marriage's in 1650 A.D., I would not want to be in an arrange marriage. Maybe that is why divorce rate was so high. Women were also seen as property. They had supervised visits on date. There was also NO living together before getting married. How did people get use to the other person's little annoying habits?
Relationships/Marriages today people
live together and are engaged longer before getting married. They can go anywhere
on a date to a movie, dinner, shopping, or just hang out. One tradition that
has been passed down and is still around today is weddings. People still get
married in a church, bride wearing white, grooms wear a black tux, and have a
wedding party of close family and friends. They also invited everyone under the
sun to the wedding because families were very close back then.
I
don’t know how I would have felt if my marriage was an arrange marriage. I do
not think I would have liked it. My husband’s and my first date was in a public
place, I had my older sister and her husband come with when I met my husband
for the first time. We met on Facebook and I didn’t want to meet him by myself.
That is what they did back in the 1650’s and up.
I
would go to his house and he would come to my mom’s (I was still living at
home.) We wouldn’t be left alone unless we were at his house. My mom had us
sitting in the living room or den when he would come over. I guess it was how
she was raised and wanted to give us the same love her parents gave her.
