Thank you ...A well-thought out and timely blogpost. Thank you for sharing what you went through. I am sure many people go through so much turmoil in finding a suitable mate. I am glad you still had hope and I am glad you said 'Yes' by your own volition. Not too many people get to do that.Harish Suryanarayanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03221393558775152535noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11306577.post-90046018822094535782009-09-10T13:56:34.896-04:002009-09-10T13:56:34.896-04:00Smi,

I'm glad that I got spared, although I had gone through an anticipitory anxiety stage.<br /><br />Even though I had heard most of it from you, it was nice reading this post. You have put it so beautifully. I am really happy for you that after everything, you did find your diamond, and all was not in vain.Soumyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09541605857265991139noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11306577.post-2416969480143205572009-09-03T01:14:22.874-04:002009-09-03T01:14:22.874-04:00Well expressed.

I'm sure you'll agree :)<br />Will look forward to the next part of this story.Smihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17903399804846203265noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11306577.post-64594508732794151162009-09-01T14:45:05.262-04:002009-09-01T14:45:05.262-04:00Rohini,

I'd have been scared as hell to marry a guy who I hadn't even met. hats off to you and glad it all worked out :).<br /><br /><b><i>Rajaram</i></b>,<br /><br />Glad the post struck a chord. I'm sorry you had a tough time too, but I believe its a little bit more difficult for girls what with the "age" thing coming into picture much more earlier for us. Maybe you can write your story in your blog sometime ;-).Deepshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15773068733721886525noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11306577.post-26852786267448211882009-08-31T16:55:31.398-04:002009-08-31T16:55:31.398-04:00all i can say abt this post: Wow.... :)

U have described it so vividly.. every emotion a girl goes through before saying that historic Yes or No. <br /><br />I've been following your blog for quite sometime now. Glad to see a Kannadiga family(Bangalorean roots) who is so super-talented living in the US.Rohinihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11747593623513040659noreply@blogger.com
