Boy Meets Girl Indian Style
The article talks about Indian Matrimony sites like Bharatmatrimony or Shaadi and the boys and girls who are trying to find true love or marriage. What is you plan or final objective when you join these sites.
WHY
Why are you joining these sites in the first place?
1. I am looking for anyone I can spend the rest of my life with
2. I want my son, daughter, sibling or pal to be married
3. Not sure but it seems like a good idea. So I'll see where it takes me
If you answer is No: 3 then I think you should think again before joining. Always keep in mind that most people who join these sites are genuinely look for love and marriage. Joining just for fun is not the correct thing to do. A false hope will sometimes hurt a person so much that they may not want to do this again If you're un attached then it could possibly be okay. But it is especially bad if you as a married or committed person to join a site and test the water.
Did you prepare
So I will assume that you are really in the market for true love and marriage. I am being very specific as most Indians who join decent sites like Shaadi or Bharat are looking at matrimony as the final outcome.
1. Do you have nice photos of yourself? Not a photo shoot that doesn't look like you. But one that you took that you or your friend personally like. Natural and nice. A picture that radiates happines and joy.
2. Have you got a profile? All of us know the importance of having a good profile. Yet we have our priorities wrong by registering firat then trying to write a profile while online. That cannot work. Speak with someone, freind or family. If friends or family can't help you then speak witha professional who can put something together for you.
A good picture profile is the first positive step to finding the right person. Always keep in mind how it was done in the old days (and sometimes today). Brokers and astrologist. Today it's the internet. The same brokerage service is still available online. And Astrology. Its about how much you want to do this and are willing to go the full hog.
For the non Indian reading, you probably think that all this matchmaking and matrimony sites are from the stone ages. This tradition has been happening for centuries. And we have seen so many successful incidents. These days the only difference is that we have the opportunity to meet and get to know the person before we commit. No different to meeting someone in a restaurant, club or online. I'll have more about this over the next few weeks.

The idea of matrimony or matchmaking can sometimes be very scary. But the good thing about doing it online is that you don't have to see anyone till you're ready Phone conversations and emails sometimes enhance what may build up to a long lasting relationship. But knowing how to do this is what's important. Maybe Arvind is the person who can make that difference.
