As-salamu alaykum, I'm feeling uncertain about a potential arranged marriage

Salam everyone, I recently met a guy my family introduced me to, and I'm feeling really unsure. He seems like a nice guy, he's religious and from what I can tell, he would be a responsible husband inshallah. He's also quite handsome. My dad has known him for about 3 years and thinks very highly of him. I'm just not sure how I feel though. We've only met once, but I can meet him again a few more times. I'm praying for clarity. Has anyone else been through an arranged marriage? When did you realize he was right for you? How certain did you feel before marriage?

I felt the same! For me, the 'click' happened after our third meeting when we talked about our future goals. Keep making dua and, if you can, chat about daily life stuff it helps you see his character.

Was in the same boat last year. Met my husband 3 times before the nikkah. The certainty came after praying istikhara and talking more freely. Trust your gut, but also trust Allah's plan!
