Dr Rathee!Chhavi, gud topic to discuss.
Matrimonial sites, sections of Newspapers, magazines have both pro n cons... what I feel is more positive features than negatives.
Earlier social networking, person to person, used to be the only source for searching suitable match. Now in this todays world where social interaction n relations of individuals have almost become extinct,,,, Matrimonial sites, newspapers providing lots of information have become boon. It also widens the search prospect as one can always consider out of so many proposals. These means are bringing the information to your door without making much efforts.
But on the negative side, the question of authenticity prevails,,,, there is always scope of misleading information, false statements; so there's no point in believing them blindly on the face value.
The onus is that they provide you with variety of information, you can narrow down on few as per your requirements,,, but the most important is to verify all the given information, be it education, job, family background-which is very important, economis status(if its criteria for some) personally through reliable sources.
Seema is very right mentioning to confirm the job of the person by calling the office no. One can personally walk upto the office/co. also to confirm. But Seema, in marriage, there are many other very important aspects to be verified besides job n education, which no doubt are one of the most important ones.
So one should be careful enough to verify the facts before going ahead with the matter based on the given information on these various channels.
Nice to hear from you and I apperciate your valuable wise words! I agree that every aspect has pros and cons!
The various sources for matrimony gives us an opportunity to search the best and it is upto an individual to judge the reality!
A profile can be misleading but not the personality! We as an educated people can easily differentiate between the truth and a lie but still we do sometime get trapped into false information.
I believe yes it needs an extra grey cells to reconginze a person in this smart world!
Best regards! Keep pouring your valuable words!
