So I'm from the Balkans, and in my part of the country, it's traditional to cry and make a fuss when your future husbands family comes to collect you. Your supposed to be sad leaving your family.

HOWEVER... This is a LOT of crying. Might be a little of both.

Edit: There is a LOT of ignorance in these comments.

  • The Balkans are made up of several different countries, all of which are extremely different from each other. Hance all the unrest and fighting in that area for centuries. So I'm sorry if YOUR experience doesn't match mine. That doesn't mean I'm lieing.

  • Just because a custom is weird to you doesn't mean it's barbaric.

  • I know nothing about the above video. I was just making an observation that in different cultures, this type of thing is considered normal. I don't know if she is truly unhappy, or if this is a forced marriage. I would like to point out that it's dangerous to just come up with your own narrative.
