Oww this hurts

I work with a physician (Brazillian) who met and got engaged to his wife (of 20+ years) within a week of meeting her. This is not typically part of his culture just saying that it can happen.

All I know is that my Nigerian co-worker is always pressuring me to marry SO and her daughter met and married within a year...

Everyone I know with arranged marriages (mostly Desis) court for a while before getting married. This guy was your first boyfriend OP? That makes it more difficult, but you will move on. Seeing how quickly he was able to find something else should be a sign that it wasn't worth it or meant to be between the two of you. I think you dodged a bullet too. Good luck. hugs!
