Mr 32
Written August 30. 2007 in
groom huntingThis is one guy i am corressponding with from the matrimonial site.
Vital stats are
age - 32.. (thats why this blog is titled Mr 32)
Edu - i think 12th.. and then probably some diploma regarding to the cookery course
Profession - chef
money matters: must have earned quite well.. was wokring with a cruise ship earlier.
looks - okay.. not bad...
height -- 6 '2 " swoon :p
Caste/region -- same as me
so he is good. on most accounts, makes decent conversation, exchaning mails with him for a week now.. so he is quite okay is talking..
but my concerns are
1) he says he wants to build up his own business.. since he is not yet open to sharing his plans with me.. although he says he has definite plans...
and since he is a chef.. i assume.. his plans would be setting up a restaurant or something...
thats good.. i can be happy living as the wife of a restauranter...
but but but.. where ... like we are both from a small lil coastal town.. where.. having a restaurant business is actually like minting money.....
but i dont want to settle down in that small town.. i am a IT engineer... i will have nothing to do there... no opportunities... to work
i will probably be reduced to sitting at the cash register at his restaurant.. :(... yawn...
I also dont want to settle down there cause.. its a coastal town.. with nothing much else.. my kids will grow up loafing on the beach and end up serving in their dad's restaurnat..
i want them to become doctors/engineer or alteast complete their graduation.. but staying there.not a chance that they will.. the education facilities are bad.. they will never go beyond theirs 12.. :-(
2) he is 32.. thats a good 8 years older than me... not sure my parents will be happy about that...but then this is a minor thing... if all is fine on the other fronts.. they might not be unhappy.
3) he is 32.... which means he will rush into marriage and then getting the kids into this world...
i am only 24.. i dont want kid.. until i am alteast 28....(i would say even more later.. but then i read somewhere that is better if women have their first kid before they are 30)
so will he agree to wait for another 4 years before having kids ??
probably not..
4) his education qualifications are less than mine.. now now... it should'nt matter as long as he is able to make enough money to support us both and our family.. which as i said.. in the restaurant business he would..
but but
i think education develops one's thinking and makes me more liberal and accomodating of others.
e.g. Illiterate ppl will fight.. argue on a point if they dont agree...
literate ppl will reason it out.. hope you get the picture..
5) he is 32.... he is elder to even my last bf.. who was 6 years elder to me... my my.. makes me feel i am marrying an old man...
i know i should'nt care.. but when i think of the smug look on everyone's face who knew about me and my ex-bf saying.. gosh.. she didnt find anyone younger.. she is marrying him.....
6) actually on all the counts... i may have to face this.. that i didnt find anyone else and so compromising on him..
age-- 8 years may be a lil too much diff
edu-- its will not go down well with my relatives n all that he is less educated than me.
so inspite of all the above doubts.. why am i going forward with this...
I maybe compromising....but he is good.. and if i honestly talk to myself.. i have no issues..
other than point 1 and point 3.
everthing is all superficial... all this will be discusses and talked about at the time of the wedding but will be quickly forgotten in a year or sooner....
so all is good right....
i need to clarify points 1 and 3 with him.. and see how it goes further..
After all i maybe jumping the gun.. i still even haven;t spoken to him...
we are still on the email phase.
