Writing on....

There have been quite a turn of events since the last post here. "Boy" isn't in the picture anymore. He never came to find me. Surprisingly I moved on quickly. Met this wonderful during my recent trip, and hopefully the plan to write a book on "Trials and Tribulations of Urban Indian Woman to find the perfect TamBram Husband" will happen. She seems quite enthusiastic about being my co-author :) and it was really nice to meet someone who had been through similar life experiences, who finally settled for something nice.

Meeting her got me thinking about the choices we make regarding the person we want to be with for the rest of our life. I have no qualms in admitting that I am looking to get married and hopefully soon. I don't want to sound cool by claiming that my single life rocks. Its certainly going well with job, friends and family but still. So coming back to choices. How do you decide that X is the person you want to be with the rest of your life. How sure can we be about that decision?What do you look for? For example, if you take any of the proposals that come my way, my family has a filtration process and after that even the ones i speak with only seem to talk about where they studied and what they are doing life, somehow this is supposed to tell me who that person is. I am unable to understand.

If i tell someone i am a lawyer and working in Y organisation how does give any idea of who i really am. How important is it? Just because I went to good univ. should my decision /choice be the same?????? I disagree...

Isn't it important that the "person" should be compatible at least at the first level and if he isn't an equal in education or career will that deeply affect the relationship. I am talking filmy stuff of heroine marrying the chauffeur and living happily ever after. I am realistic too.

My dilemma should I pass a sensible, mature , nice person on the face at least just because the person is qualified enough in comparison with the degrees i have accumulated???????

How much of this decision comes from comparing the present with the past???

There only questions in my head.... wondering where the answers or are they no answers?????
