I have been going through the Telugu matrimonial section lately at the behest of my parents. I have hardly paid attention to this new net-matrimonial phenomenon in the past but it has been a very interesting experience. The number of posts online surprised me and even more surprising was the fact that most of them had pictures attached. The description columns (of the girl’s personality and the kind of guy she wants) were the best part of browsing through the post (Although I liked the pictures, maybe because I’m more of a picture guy- DUH! Me can’t read).
Some of the descriptions were so brilliantly simple that I instantly fell in love with them. Most likely than not these girls had excellent and sensible idea of what their guy should be. Well some of them were quite submissive (I know the bra-burners are up in arms) and hey show me a person who does not want to be served and I’ll say I’m sorry.
There were a number of posts that were outrageous too and here goes.
A girl says “I’m very liberal and open minded. Seeking a like minded person who gives me respect and loves me. I’m very fair/ beautiful.”
My take: First and foremost the guy will not marry you unless he loves (At least likes) you. Hence you don’t have to reiterate the fact, secondly since you claim that you are liberal what makes you think that fair is beautiful? I just don’t see the connection between the two.
Girl or Girl’s parents seeking a boy who “Must reside in U.S.A. AP.hd in Engineering or any other field or M,S. from best college from U.S.& working in a leading organization Or a doctor who is doing residency or complets & works in a best hospital. ”
I hate to do this but “reality check” sistah, you ain’t Beyonce. This is the only thing that was given in the description, so the girl does not care if the guy were to be dick head or a Ted Kaczynski (He had a degree from Harvard). What is with these people.
There were a number of other restrictions like the guy has to be between 5’9” and 5’11”, living in Hyderabad, working for a Major MNC making at least 6 Lakhs p.a. etc..
I started calculating the probabilities and gave up in between but it must be pretty low, anyways the whole point of this write up is………… well there is no point to it, I thought it was funny. There are number of people who think otherwise but fortunately for me, I need not stick to an arranged marriage not do I have worry that never being able to find a girl (I have all my bases covered)
Peace
