Aarushie & Ketan
14 June 2015
I sent him the request on Shaadi.com and he accepted it. I had already paid and so his contact details were visible.We thought of calling him up for his astrological details. And so I called up on his number and spoke to him and took his birth details. I am an astrologer so I checked the astrological guna's and the compatibility which was just perfect. Called him up again in about half an hour and asked if he was serious about marriage . He said yes and then I asked him to make his mom speak to my mom on the same number once he was home. After about an hour or so he called back and his mom spoke to my mom. A good discussion about the family and future plans happened and they decided they we all should meet up soon. His mom said she will speak to everyone in the family n call back for the meeting. My dog wasn't well as he was quiet old and he passed away after 2 days of this conversation which left me shattered. I was really depressed. His mom called the very next day of dogs death and told my mom that we can meet up on the Saturday which was the very next day of the call.. My mom agreed however because me, my brother and my dad were really sad, we asked mom to call his mom back and say that it isn't possible this weekend as our dog is no more and that we will call back in a few days to fix the appointment. Meanwhile I contacted Ketan from my number for the first time and apologized for canceling the plan because I am feeling too low. He spoke to me very politely and also supported me like a friend. Which of course had a very positive impact on me. After 4 days when we all were a little better my dad asked my mom to call his mom to plan the meeting for the weekend, which she did. Finally we met on the 20th of December 2014 which was a Saturday at Barista at Vasant vihar. He informed me about the location and we met at about 6 in the evening. When we ( me , mom, dad n my brother ) entered Barista they were already there , Ketan , his mom and his dad. We met and introduced ourselves , ordered coffee. Then me and Ketan were allowed to go and speak alone for a while. We went out of Barista for a walk and spoke to each other for almost an hour. We were so very comfortable. Spoke about our professions , likes and dislikes and a lot of things. It was like we clicked in the first go. He said one of his sisters resembled me and that her name was also Ginni ( Ginni is my nickname ) . I was like that's nice :). We went inside and then decided that we should take a leave . Family's were positive as well . My mom asked his mom to let us know what their decision was . Once we were back my parents asked if I liked him . I told them he is nice though I need time to decide. On 23rd that is 3 days later his mom called my mom and asked her that Ketan wants to meet me alone once. My mom was a little hesitant. She said she will speak to my dad and call back. His mom sensed that my mom wasn't comfortable and she then told my mom something that wasn't expected at all. She asked my mom that if she knew Anu Grover. For one moment my mom was confused. Then she replied - yes. Anu Grover is my Bhabhi ( my mom's brother's wife - first cousin ) . Then Ketan's mom said Anu Grover is her sister-in-law ( Ketan's fathers sister- first again ). And my mom was surprised completely. My mom asked his mom how did she find out that we know Anu Grover because we met on Shaadi.com and its nowhere me too about Her on there. They had already spoken to them and asked about us we met for the first time. My mom was smiling . She said that she will quickly have a word with her brother ( Sunir Grover - my mama ) and call back. My called Sunir mama and spoke to him about Ketan and his family. Mama was like yes they are really close and he takes full guarantee of them. He was like he wanted us to meet them first before he could speak about them. He said there is nothing to be worries about and if Ketan wants to meet Aarushie alone then my mom should send me . I spoke to mama as well he was like don't be afraid. They are really nice people and he takes full responsibility. Which was again a very positive sign. Mama said they his marriage took place from Ketan's house which is like 20 years back. Everyone in their family is very loving and independent and they will take care of me. Mom and dad were really at peace after this conversation. Mom then called his mom and said a yes for our meeting. His mom said that Ketan will get in touch with me for that. Same day in the evening Ketan asked me about the plans. I asked him where and when does he want to meet . He said that we can catch up the next day on the 24th at cp in the evening. I agreed. We met at about at 5:30 in the evening next day and sat at a terrace lounge. Spoke to each other for about 3 and half hours. Did not realise that. It was 8:45 already. We spoke about every aspect of our life's.. Past, health, education , expectations, and what not. Both of us kept a very clear picture of each other and were very honest about everything. We clicked and were very positive. He then walked with me to the parking. Asked me if he should follow me on his car till I reach home. I said no that's fine and that I will drive back . He asked him to let him know once I reach. I felt the cared concern already which did feel good :). I texted him once I reached and he said he will be reaching home shortly and has his plans to go out with family as its Christmas eve. I just replied enjoy with a smiley My parents were really curious to know about the meeting and how I felt. I said I did like him but still I need some time . My dad said he spoke to mama as well and that even he is convinced. No other verification required. And if its a yes from them then I should consider though they will never force me. There was only thing that was bothering me , and that was his job. He travels like every month for 10 to 15 days. And can't take me along always . But mom dad n even my mama told me that it's about quality time that you spend together not the quantity and that this job isn't permanent . He has done hotel management and has worked with the hotels previously as well and he might switch again in a few years line. I said fine give me some time . I will let you know. At 12:10 or so at night Ketan contacted me. Wishing merry Christmas . I wished him too . he then asked me what did my family ask me . I told him that they were asking about the meeting and how did it go. Asked him about his family and he said they Were also asking the same. He then asked me a question - so it is a yes ??? I replied - for ???! He said - what else would it be ??? I asked - is it a yes from you ??? He relied -( just with me a smiley ). He then said let me call you . I still needed some time so told him that will talk in the morning as I am too tired and that I am half asleep. He said alright. I told him I will call him up first thing in the morning . He was like he will be half alseep by then . I said no worries will call around the noon. And then we wished each other again and slept. I woke up at 8 in the morning and spoke about him to all my close friends and cousins and took their advice . I knew I was convinced but still wanted to speak to my friends n cousins to be sure as it was happening so fast and I was a little scared . Everyone said go for it and I did not have a reason to say a no. He was really sweet to me and we clicked . I further contacted him about at 11 - it is a Yes .. He replied - an hua yes I replied - you never said a yes either and that just replied with a smile, shall I take the smiley as a yes ??? He replied --- Ji huzoor And that's how things worked out.. On the 26th my parents and mama went to his house and gave a small Sagan in his hand to finalize.. On 31st his family came to our house and have me Sagan to finalize. And on the 4th of January 2015 we officially did a Roka with a gathering of about 60 people. It's been 2 months already since we said a yes and just about 2 months left for the wedding . Everything fit into place so well . I am glad I met him . All thanks to Shaadi.com
