1. Please don’t judge me for my choices... Did you ever wonder why some people find the perfect husband and a few others end up with the wrong person? Being a modern girl, I have a certain set of expectations from my would-be husband that will eventually help us strengthen our relationship in long term. Because, everyone wants to find their ‘happily ever after’, right? So, dear future husband, before judging me for the choice I make in life, here is what you need to read… ​2. My past relationships I have had my own share of relationships but I don’t regret having them. Thanks to my past experiences, I now have a clear perspective of what I want in a relationship, and the qualities I seek in a partner. That experience will actually help me to make the right choice and choose you as my life partner. Plus, I am curious to know about yours! ​3.Virginity If a few drops of blood decide my character, you better stay away from me. ​4. My me-time I love my ‘me-time’. I seek to left alone for a few hours, it does not mean I don’t love you anymore or have bored of our relationship. I might use this time to write a journal, concentrate on my hobbies, meditate or simply sit idle. I am just trying to reconnect with myself, that’s it! 5.​My parents I understand that I have certain responsibilities towards your family after getting married, but please don’t forget I have, and will always have my own family as well. Don’t take me as an irresponsible wife if I want to spend some time with my parents, or help them whenever required. And if I am accepting your parents as my new family, you need to do the same as well. ​6.My independence Dear future husband, you are going to marry a modern independent woman. She is professionally successful, financially independent, loves to travel (sometimes solo), and can even fix a punctured tyre all by herself. Rather than feeling little ‘less manly’ about my independence, take pride in marrying a girl who will not bother you to help her for every little thing. In fact, she might help you when you need her to. ​7. My income I am willing to contribute towards our new home and ease your financial burden. But please don’t mind if I spend some part of my earnings on my family and friends (including make-up as well!). I am not a spendthrift but don’t assume my salary is meant just for you and your family. ​8. Let’s talk about household chores I really hope you won’t mind doing the dishes if I turn up late from office, or cook breakfast for us the day I am unwell. We both have been brought up the same way, and I hope you understand the concept of equal work and equal opportunities. So, do we have a deal?
