A bride   searching    for a  groom  in modern times

(Lot of exaggeration    and unrealistic  , you may say  but  we are speedily  travelling  towards  this situation)

 After  lot of technical  education   , earning   great many degrees,

An employed  girl past twenty six  decided   to get married,

And   as a  nice , good and obedient   girl  , she said to her mother,

“Mummy   I have   decided    to get married and want a suitable groom”

Mummy said  ,”That news  is great , please tell  what we  should look for .”

The girl said, “ I have been thinking about   it and also searching in google.,

And   I have  made   up my mind   as to what type  of groom I want..

“I am not very particular   that  our   castes are same  or gothras are  different.

I want him very much to look like  a   present day  Bollywood  hero,

With  a  thin moustache    and a  well  groomed beard ,

I want him to be  maximum  one or two   years  older than me ,

With  one  year   better   than  two, as I think he will understand my needs better,

I definitely want him to be younger than   my elder sister’s husband,

I want him  to  be two to three  inches  taller   than  me.

I want him  to work in an MNC  and earn at least fifty thousand more than me ,

I also want    his salary  higher   than my elder  sister’s  husband.

I am very particular  that  he  should not be a businessman Or orthodox .

I want the  groom to live  in  my  own  home town,

With his   parents living as far as possible from that place.

I  want him  to have at least one brother , preferably elder,

I want him to  agree for me  to spend money , I earn  on my parents,

And the rest     to be in my name  to be spent as  per my  wishes,

I want him to  convert all   his  bank accounts ,

To  be  joint ones, the other   being me,

Though I   am slightly   short tempered,

I want him not to have any anger at all,

I  want him never   to object  me,

From going to a party  along with my friends,

And always take me to a party when he goes.

That is all  dear Mummy  for  the present .

And whenever I   go for shopping  .

He should give his card  and wait patiently”
