The beginning

It started when I turned 26 in 2005, I resisted a lot - but they never listened - there I was - a new brand launched on the matrimony portal. Alliance-search process is a big example of project management and is a project by itself. Enroll yourself in these sites and get an opportunity to find a suitable alliance from 1000 other registered users. For the first week or 2, the response by the profiles of girls, is always overwhelming.

Two weeks later it came as a tip from another family member (aunt) who found her son's bride at one of these sites that making your profile interesting with company name - salary details, a digitally altered picture, scuba diving/racing as hobbies as favorites invites lot of "interests" whereas a boring/predictable one with watching TV for hobbies and eating sambhar/rasam for favorite cuisines evince hardly any interest.

This process ended up after few months, with no results and two years passed by, my mother was almost sure that I had already found somebody for myself and when I said there wasn't anybody, she felt thankful silently ('Thank you God for not putting me through ' The test ' ), and there began the second round !!
