You are right Sivaramakrishnan Sir, I totally agree with you. Understanding nature, compromising qualities also plays an important role in a happy married life

@vathsala30 I have been married for nearly forty years, and I can say each should be prepared to live with the other, forgiving for unreasonable behavior even at times. No pains, no gains! siva

I prefer that my hubby should be intelligent, knowledgeable and analyse the situations well and take a correct decision and prompt decision. Beauty and money are secondary to me.

Well said Buchi. Even i prefer such persons only as my spouse. Beauty and money are perishable any moment and not intelligence and knowledge. Hope your spouse is having all such qualities which you prefer and wish you a very great happy married life

Hi dear, Happy New Year to you. Long time not seen in mylot. Hope you are doing fine. Regarding the topic, I think it is better not to expect any special qualities. Love the spouse as the way he/she is. If we expect some special qualities and can’t find it after the marriage then it may be disappointing and the troubles may start from there. Try to understand the negatives as well as positives of the spouse. Adjusting and understanding is the key to get a successful marriage. Each and every person expects only good qualities in spouse but human beings have the negatives and positives.

Hi Sree What a surprise to see you after a long time. My happiness knows no bounds dear.Wishing you a great Happy New Year too. I am fine Coming to the point, I am not talking about expectations, this is a wish which every one will have in the heart prior to the marriage. that means, when we attain the adulthood, sometimes if we happen to see someone who is so affectionate to their spouse, we long to have such qualities in our spouse too. Is not it . such thinking does not exactly come under expectations but wish. That is what the response i am expecting. Hope now i am clear in my discussion

Why does the marriage have to be fixed for this question? I think in any marriage there are three things that are very important. Honesty, trust, and fun. I think you have to be able to believe your spouse and trust your spouse, with out those two things a marriage can not work. I think in order for a marriage to be successful you have to have fun together and truly enjoy one another's company.

Hi Thedaddym What you say is true and i totally agree with you. But it seems you have not understood my point. Once, if we attain adulthood and fit for marriage, each one will have their own dreams about their spouse to be. Some likes to marry a rich person, some wants to marry a beautiful person, Some aspires for a loving and adoring person. Tastes differs from person to person. So i asked about the fantacy and expectations about the future spouse.

In family life what you say is correct. But what i ask is, before our marriage, naturally we all wish ( not expect)or feel to have some qualities in our spouse to be. What qualities did u wish or feel in your heart that your would be spouse should have?

I would prefer an outspoken, loving, understanding and a mature person to be my spouse. When we get married we are totally new to its intricacies and only a straight forward and understanding person can help you to keep your marriage happy. Be it husband or wife, love and trust are the two main ingredients for a happy and successful marriage. Happy mylotting.

hello vathsala, This reminds me of my supposed to be wedding (an arranged one) To answer your question your question,when i was a kid i used to believed in fairy tales. I love reading fantasy books and i dreamed of marrying my prince in shining armor. A handsome priest from a far away kingdom. It did happened,my prince come to my rescue weeks before my arranged marriage takes place. My prince is handsome,but not a rich one. And the sad part of my fairy tale story is,it's not a "happily ever after" ending. Yes,i was able to marry someone who is handsome but not rich. Has the qualities that i admire,he has a great voice of a singer and knows how to play various music instrument. He is smart and intelligent (i found men sexy the way they speak with brains) He is a loving person (and he still loves other women hahaha my luck ugh!) Well,my fairy tale story ends ...not a happy ending but it's fine i have my "freedom" that's all i asks. But i never ever regretted turning my back from my supposedly arranged marriage,i am sure i will not be happy with it also,because i don't love the guy of my parents choice. Love matters most when it comes to marriage. (but love also is the reason why other marriages broke...it is when LOVE is gone) Have a great weekend dear

Hmm, I don't expect too much from my spouse if marriage counseling was necessary. Actually, I just want my souse to be sincere, and true to herself. Not that kind of girl that like a gold digger. I just don't want that.

Hi bhuwanji, As usual you are always right in your thoughts and thinking. What you said is right. God has given you the best gift of your life ( Kalyaniji). 16 years is so young and innocent age. May be that time you should be 25 or 27 years of age. young bride and groom. ha ha ha
