As my quest for simplicity (to be read as marriage blues), continues... i can't stop but pause along the profiles of prospective brides and try to imagine how would the guy look like if he were to truly match the preferences set. As I'm still not able to visualize such a guy i leave it up to the reader of this blog to help me out. To ease out the imagination process i list some of the partner preferences i found in a matrimony site:
"Should be settled in Bangalore (Proper). Should not be very orthodox or Conservative. Should be broad minded. Should be an independent decision maker."
> Has anyone seen a Bangalore (Proper)?
"A life partner and a best friend for life... a partner in crime and rhyme :) "
> whoa.. partner in crime!!! was i looking at a bride's profile?
"I would like him to be intelligent, well educated, smart, open minded and independent, patient and extremely compassionate towards animals :) cheerful, cultured and has great faith in GOD and respects family values."
> Extremely compassionate towards animals, i thought i was thinking of a human bride :D
"I am looking out for a guy to whom i can look up to at any times to come, he should be smart, friendly, respect others and be able to take his own decisions independently. He should give that free space to me and should not dominate. we should have that comfort level while speaking to eachother. He should be Vegitarin,Non-Smoker, Non-Drinker and donot have Dating habbits."
> Ayiooo if i don't date this bride to be, how can i marry? truly amazing... i would love to see the guy who marries this bride ;)
"We are looking for a groom who is well educated and well settled and has hailed from a respectable family with broad minded thinking, decent looks, traditional and friendly nature. The guy's parents are also expected to be friendly and broad minded with basic etiquettes with regards to the respecting of the girl's parents and thier family. The information provided by the groom's family should be true in all respects."
> Looks like there would be an 'agreement paper' to be signed by the bride-groom and his family, which will thereafter be verified by an independent body :D
"Basically we are looking for a Boy who preferably in the same profession and understands the marriage relationship very well."
> I guess i need to read a book "Marriage relationship for dummies" ;)
