Matchmaking


As if my family was not enough, my friends have ventured into the territory! A few of them have suggested some guys,who,they feel who would be appropriate for me.There is no end to match-making business! Everyone is interesed, you see! :D

Sometimes, I laugh at whatever is happening around me.And sometimes, it makes me sad.Other times I feel a strange kind of numbness towards the whole thing.As if I don't care at all.But I know,I do.This 'not bothered' kind of behaviour is something I pretend, to make others lose interest in finding a match for me.And I hardly ever succeed :(

Suddenly,getting me married has shifted to the top of 'to-do lists' of everyone I know! They have even set deadlines for themselves.The fact that two of my cousins who are younger than me(and supposedly doing nothing after college) are getting married this year, and it increases the pressure you see! So there is a deadline that has been set, plus, there is an increasing pressure to meet that deadline because some-one else in the family is also getting married.Isn't it ridiculous?

Sometime soon, I would be getting a call from one of the guys who thinks I am perfect for him since one of our common friends made him believe this(and even shared our pics with each other) It statred as a teezer but I had never imagined that it would go to this extent.Anyways, strange as life is, it is making me do strange things these days.

'Strange Things' remind me of something that I feel is most ackward about the whole procedure of arranged marriages! Suddenly, you become a model and you have to pose for pics that would be clicked by pros who can change the way you look!A girl next door(desprate to get married) to a supermodel(but, in a traditional outfit) in 30 seconds flat! And not to metion, your skin tone would be lightened by two shades!I have managed to not to fall into this trap and this is one battle I have not lost yet! **Feels Proud and Smiles** :D 


Expecting a call from Mr K(Common friend guy)this week!So,that would give me some more things to blog about!Being the blogger that I am, I am thinking of doing a post on all of these stupid things happening in life!


Maybe, someday, my dream-man would be reading this blog,sitting beside me! **Smiles**

Mr Right, Are You Listening?


Okay, I am sick of this arranged marriage thing now.Six months since the last post here,and life is still no more than a dangling pointer.It seems there is not a guy in this world who fits in my definition of Mr Right.

Some are still Momma's boys, some want their wives to quit her job and serve as a housewife for the rest of her life, some are just 5 inches 5, some earn less than me, some feel that women are their puppets, some are trying hard to lose weight, some say they want to get married only coz their parents feel it is the right thing to do,some believe they are no less than the Prince of Wales,some have a moustache,some are 'kuup-manduks'(frogs who are afraid of taking up new ventures coz they are comfy in the calm waters of their own city or state),some are already 30, some think they are doing a favour to the girl they would marry,some are losers enough to the extent of never having done a thing on their own coz their dads are rich businessmen and there is not a need to create an indentity, some are committed but still meeting other girls coz their parents want them to.

So, all in all, that means, no one for me :( Or am I waiting for someone who doesn't exist at all.Mere khvabon me jo aaye types guy is non-existant or what?
