Better a broken engagement than a broken home, what do you think about it?

I definitely can say that this is the very right decision.There is no reason for one to get married if there is dissatisfaction over the character and behavior of the one involved.

Oh my gosh, that is so sad. but I agree with you a hundred and one percent that at least she was saved from a bad marriage. it would probably take her a while to get over this incident but sooner or later, she will realize how lucky she truly is to have been saved from a lifetime of agony.

I definitely agree, I think all of us should sit and think about our decisions before really getting into it. Most marriages these days are brought about a couple who got a child accidentally without having a good foundation on the relationship. Though I must say that there are those whose marriage did work out, but a lot would end up in divorce. I think it's good that the girl finally realized what she's doing isn't really right before it was too late. I think if we all give time to think about the matter, a lot of divorce might have been prevented. But still, there's no right formula for a good or successful marriage.

I agree it's better to call off the wedding than to marry, be miserable and divorce later. But from your post it's not very clear who took that decision, because you said "the girl has been saved". If the family has decided this instead of the girl, I think that was not a good step.
