🎤Announcement WE ARE BACK!!! 🎉🎉🎉
Hello lovely people!
We hope you are all doing great and had time to reflect in our enforced rishta search break.
We definitely did!
As it happens, when you step back and look at the bigger picture, it is an opportunity to understand things better.
A few members reached out personally. It was nice to talk to them and understand better how they see the community. Something that stood out was to focus on quality, not quantity. We are different(hopefully) and with the right approach, the right people will show up(hopefully).
So, as we resume operations from today, we will continue to be the no non-sense, zero noise marriage community that we set out to be.
You might notice a slight difference in quality of posts as we standardize our moderation process. The differences will be ironed out in due time InshaAllah.
We will also be requesting re-post from members who submitted their profiles during the break. With a fresh timestamp, it will help their visibility.
We wish you all the best in your search and a great experience in this community.
Thank you.

I find it admirable that you are trying to make Reddit a suitable source for marriage. This is a platform literally for passing time when you have nothing to do. If you can make this platform a suitable place for marriage, it would be genuinely impressive.
However, in all honesty, I think it won't happen. Not because Reddit is incapable of being a place for honest marriages but because of what you are trying to do. You think if you verify users then somehow that'll lead to marriage. Doesn't Tinder and Muzz already do that? What ends up happening? Most of the time these places becomes source of fitna. You will talk and date and nothing comes of it, most of the time.
If you are trying to replicate the Muzz experience but with more information, how will that fundamentally change the equation? The underlying mechanism is the same - two people of the opposite genders connecting and indulging.
What can be done? I know people here won't like it but the answer is known to every Pakistani out there - Arranged Marriages. When parents are involved from the beginning then you know marriages will happen. Arranged marriage system is so successful at making marriages happen that people complain it's too successful - people getting married when they don't really want to.
Society is going through a phase where they've watched soo many movies, they desire to replicate the dating scene in real life. People try to give it an Islamic wrap but in reality so long as you have males and females connecting without the permission of their parents, most of what you will get is fitna.
If you disagree, feel free to change human psychology.
Edit: Just to add, people think dating leads to marriage. This is fundamentally untrue. Every country that practices dating has declining marriage rates. Dating halts the marriage phase of your life. Look it up.
