The rishta process remains a daunting and arduous procedure.
One Twitter user from Pakistan @oh_my_mascara took to the social media forum to share that she had been rejected for marriage on account of her bad front teeth.
She subsequently invited other Pakistani women to share their own rejection stories.
Ladies, quote this with whatever physical appearance you were rejected for by rishta people. I was rejected yesterday for bad front teeth.

I was actually accepted by an aunty for her 33 year old son, only because I was 20. YEAH THAT WAS THE ONLY REASON. :) https://t.co/ufqhctysMk

@Oh_My_Mascara a friend was rejected for being 'too talkative'. What even?!

rejected x times because i was 'moo phat,' rude & confrontational. BC, you've come here inspecting a human like a horse & i'm the rude one? https://t.co/7WFUV5SFar

Unfortunately it's always the Ghar walas that do the rejection not the guys themselves. Only one reason for me though. Overweight. https://t.co/G7BgdZ2t9r
