Two men, one American and an E. Indian, were sitting in a bar and discussing about their family problems.
Shot after shot.
The E. Indian said to the American,
"We have a major problem in India. We can’t marry the one we love. You know, my parents are forcing me to get married to this so called homely girl from a village. I haven't met her even once.
We call this 'arranged marriage.' I don't want to marry a woman that I don't love. I told them that! Now I have a ton of family problems."
The American said,
"Talking about love marriages... In America, we can marry the one we love. I'll tell you my story.
I married a widow I deeply loved and dated for 3 years.
After a couple of years, my father fell in love with my step-daughter and married her. So, my father became my son-in-law and I became my fathers' father-in-law.
Legally, now my daughter is my step-mother and my wife my grandmother.
More problems got complicated when I had a son. My son is my fathers' brother and, so, he is my uncle.
Situations turned worse when my father had a son. Now my fathers' son, my step-brother, is my grandson. Ultimately, I have become my own grandfather and I am my own grandson. And you complain you have family problems! Big deal!"
The E. Indian was stunned, speechless!
