With weird marriage proposals coming my way now, I was so happy yesterday when I heard about a girl and how she dealt with similar situations. I dont know who she is, i dont even know her name...but I've become her fan. if she reads this post somewhere, somehow, i want her to know that she is officially my role model now n i bow to her!!
so this is what happened:
the guy is a relative. they have been looking for a match for him. now they heard of this girl and approached the family. the guy was then told that the girl would initially communicate thru email and then take things forward. so he mailed her (or his father did, i'm not sure). the girl replied. her reply was just an orkut friend request. she mentioned that she was a bit busy and didnt have the time to write stuff abt herself, so they shud chk her profile, where everything they needed to know was there.
so the guy (and his parents!) log on to orkut to see the profile. the display pic was of a girl wearing a brown leather jacket, huge sunglasses, a bandana and she was kinda sitting on a bike. for his conservative parents, that was the 1st jhatka!!
then, the profile sed nothing much, but there was an album. so they opened the album and wat they fond?? they found tons of snaps of "her". there were snaps of her toe nail, her hairs' split ends, her acne, her elbow and a close up of her teeth!!!!!
at this point, the parents literally fell off their chairs!! LOL!! so the guy, gauging the situation, mailed her back n extremely politely said that he wasn't interested.
u thot that was the end of it?? well, the guy thot so too. but he opened his mail box a while later n saw that the girl had replied...n her reply was "AS IF I CARE"!! hahahaha
this was just such a great slap on the face of everyone who forcefully tried to get her married off or put any pressure on her watsoever. i just loved her guts n the manner in which she dealt with it. n this really makes me wanna try it out too. wish i get to do it. just once! :D
