Are men living in a joint family a red flag?

I’ve been receiving marriage proposals from men who live in joint families. I’ve also observed my relatives who have been part of such families. I’ve noticed that these men tend to be less open-minded and flexible, and they adhere to traditional values.

My friends who have been part of nuclear families have shared similar experiences, stating that it can be challenging to adapt to the lifestyle and expectations of these men. I’d love to hear your thoughts on this matter.

Absolutely they are, I'm telling u from my personal experience
Pls pls save yourself

I have been a victim of such a man
I got his profile from an arranged marriage set-up the guy was a Data scientist in the big four
His mother insisted that my mother let them talk and decide afterall they have to live life together
After one week of these I got text from him
He always kept on showing me that he is a very spiritual and nice type of man
He proposed to me on the 2nd January 2026 Within one month of talking before our conversation he had feelings for another girl who rejected him after meeting him for his looks . I compromised for looks after all I am getting love so I thought looks personality are secondary
Then he was romantically close to me it was my first experience in love
Before this i never been into any relationship

His parents decided to meet me and my parents we spent lots of my money on their welcoming host etc

I'm 5ft tall but beautiful
And the guy was not good looking initially my family and my brother were against That he doesn't deserve u but I told them looks don't matter to me . After three months of proper relationship he betrayed me and his mother scolded me to be open minded we are such a modern family that u have no father u r weak this that
I can't explain how she treated me with fake promises about marriage that we r okay dowry etc we are living in Mumbai so we have such an open life my son has a lot of female friends and u r binding him. His sister also treated me so falsely. The whole family was so so fake full of lies and looters.

The guy even told me that I love u i won't leave u ever yesterday itself then he stopped taking my calls and msgs after his mother's influence.

naah man, you are generalising this. But true that finding a partner nowadays seems to be very daunting task.

Please try to marry someone who is handsome, wealthy, knowledgeable, gives time to you anytime of the day. Occasional gifts like necklace, free to move or travel whenever and wherever you needed. Ensure there is no nuclear family.

Sincerely advise, After 15 yrs , please don't make your family a nuclear ☢️. Ensure that you don't touch kitchen after marriage. Wish you a Happy life.

It’s a long list, since those men are not open minded..they might not be happy with my career choices, my lifestyle, the people I meet and interactions I have with my colleagues…
