✧･ﾟ: *✧･ﾟ* ARRANGED MARRIAGE SENTENCE STARTERS
A small collection of starters connected to arranged marriages. Feel free to adapt them as needed!
“You are… very different of what I had expected.”
“I will run away before I ever marry the likes of you.”
“I know you hold no love for me, that we don’t even know each other in truth, and perhaps we will never come to love each other, but we can at least be friends.”
“Love can be built, too. And if you’re willing, I would like to try and learn to love you.”
“You are lovely. Even more beautiful than I was told.”
“What I heard of you before makes you no justice.”
“I must say I never expected to be wed to someone as stunning as you.”
“It is an odd thing, to be wed to someone you never met, to have a complete stranger suddenly become such a great part of your life.”
“I can’t marry him/her/them. I’m in love with another.”
“Please do not make me wed him/her/them!”
“I do not care what you want, we did not marry for love.”
“You’re mine now, and you will act suitably.”
“Who you loved before does not matter any longer. You are mine now, only mine.”
“Perhaps we should try to know each other better? We can start simple… do you like music?”
“We are only marrying because I need an heir.”
“You love someone else, so do I. Why don’t we make an agreement?”
“Am I not what you expected?”
“I may not be as good looking as you hoped, but I shall never treat you unkindly.”
“You are to be my wife/husband, I want to help you feel more at home here. It shall be your home soon, after all.”
“There are talks of betrothal, even if they haven’t yet told me. I know they plan to wed me off to someone soon.”
“They want to marry me to him/her/them, but I don’t want that. I want you.”
“No need for this pretense. I know all your interest is my claim, not I.”
“I am to leave home and everything I have ever known to wed someone I have never met. It isn’t fair.”
“I marry you because I must. It is my duty to seal this alliance.”
“I will fulfill my duty, but I hold no love for you or your family.”
“We were wed as strangers, it’s true, but we needn’t continue being so.”
“Our marriage doesn’t have to be loveless just because it began as duty.”
“Do you believe in love at first sight? I feel like I have known and loved you for thousands of lives, even if we only met.”
“You will do as you are told and marry who we have picked for you.”
“You’ve been raised your entire life knowing this day would come. Do not begin to entertain illusions of marrying for love now.”
“I will never let them ship you off to a stranger as I was.”
“You are my child, and you will not be sold off to anyone like that. I won’t let them trade you for their alliance.”
“I wish I could undo it, child, but I cannot. This arrangement was made years ago.”
“We have been promised to each other for years, yet I could never meet him/her/them.”
“How odd that we were promised to each other for so long and only met on our wedding day.”
“What of it? It isn’t like I haven’t known for years that my fate would be to wed some stranger my family deemed suitable.”
“How can you be so calm about this? They are deciding who you spend your life with, and you won’t have any say on it!”
“Through them, we will finally join our bloodlines.”
“He/She is marrying my claim, not me.”
“Only princes/princesses and kings/queens are worthy of you. You will not be wed to someone lesser.”
