Every time I open my rediff account, pops up an ad for matrimony.  A beautiful girl with an attractive smile gaping at me. An aspiring model painstakingly dressed to look like the girl next door, smart, caring and shlyly seductive. I guess any bachelor planning to get married would be tempted to check out this site. Not anything against rediff, could be any site, it is invariably always a girl staring at me. I always wonder why does it have to be a girl to trigger the fantasies about a happy home for the guy.What about the girls out there trying to find a suitable groom? They have to be satisfied with the mehandi of the girl and think this could be me........or maybe think I look better than this girl in all ways, it could be me. ....and still keep wondering what it is that ticks the guys, gets the parents matching horroscopes, getting married? Does anyone know why does it always has to be girl ?

When I was searching these sites some day in the past. it was embarassing to admit to friends that I was searching the web for a groom, ( I wish we could google that out too), that was one of the thoughts running in my mind that what was about the girls that get married. their looks, the way they have their hair done, their speech mayve  not visible in the photos and I actually went and searched the bride section to have a look at the profiles of the brides  would be. Today I am married to a wonderful guy who was defintely worth all that wait and all that effort of sitting every night on the web with dad behind my back asking me to scroll slowly...........I still dont have a logical answer to the questions of my would-be-bride friends as to what it is that ticks.........I guess marriages are made in heaven after all.
