Matchmaking

If your loved ones (friends/family) were to pick a suitor for you, would they choose the same type as you choose yourself, or a totally different type?



Remember, these are the people who love you, and know you, best.
And have your best interests at heart.

My parents would choose the one with the child-bearing hips.
My mates would choose the one with the nice rack.
My youngest sister would choose the one with the shiniest hair.

Between them I think they've just about cracked it.

If you had a toddler in the family, and they chose someone with lots of makeup like a Barbie, with all of the above, you could have been paired up with a traveller laugh

Welcome Lav! hug

I understand it is still commonplace in different cultures. It used to be here too.

But this is just a fun thread. To see if their choices would differ a lot from your own.

It works for some people but sometimes there
Could be added pressure to make a good impression
On both sides as you both have mutual friends
And you cant relax on that dreaded first date dunno

My daughter once said she thought I should find myself a good woman because it would be so cool to have a gay mum.

Ye-ah, that thing about having my best interests at heart... laugh

My father would have chosen one who can provide him with cheap liquor and cigs laugh My mother would have made a good choice, I think. My friends did introduce me to a nice guy, but had the worst dog breath on the planet. I couldn't even talk to him.. laugh I think I'd trust my son though to pick someone. He knows me best.
