Matchmaker unsuspectingly chooses 2nd wife for her husband

The woman, known as Om Mohammad, has been in the matchmaking business for nine years. She often attends wedding ceremonies to spot young women, divorcees or widows looking for husbands.

Her communications with men and families looking for brides are often limited to the WhatsApp application.

“They mention the details they want in the women of their dreams, and I try to help them make their dreams come true,” she said.

“One day, I received a message on my WhatsApp account from a man who did not identify himself. I did not know the number, but the man spelled out the features he looked for in a wife. I promised to help, as I regularly did with clients, and when I was attending a wedding ceremony, I spotted a woman who fit his requirements,” she said, quoted by Saudi daily Al Riyadh on Thursday.

Om Mohammad added that she contacted the number and gave them the name of the young woman’s family and shared their communication details.

“I thought that my role was over, but a few days later, my husband praised me for my ‘high taste’ and thanked me for my role. I was puzzled by his attitude until he explained to me that he was the man who had contacted me looking for a wife and that he was going to marry the woman I had selected,” she said.

Reminds me of the time, I relayed my preferences to Rizks’ beloved Chin Tu Fat and the next day I got a text from her friend Luv Lee Lay ..

Anyway, the question arises – Would you use or have you used a dating agency or marriage bureau ?
