D1 - Right on! Some guys try make it a big deal that someone asked for their bio on an online matrimonial site. Well if you were that sharp, you wouldnt even need to be on shadi.com

Shaadi.com is more like arranged marriage and not a date...everyone will ask for your bio..before they even see your face

I’ve had better experience than most then. It was recommended by a friend who met his wife on it.

Me and my fiancé started txting and then added each other on Snapchat. Talked for a few months before meeting, dated for more than a year...

At the same time I’ve seen messages which were kinda cringeworthy!

Anyhow it may or may not work really just a coincidence! No guarantees either way

like

And both of us had our pics on the site and we were from completely different areas of work, don’t think either has seen others ‘bio’ yet haha and our parents came into picture maybe 7-8 months after we started dating..

like

Op - no parents had 0 say in the whole process... they had agreed to my white S.O in the past too so all in all they just care about getting interest on the principal aka grand babies haha

Though as parents are getting older I definitely factored someone who respects them like I do...

So not a positive experience over dating apps? Sigh.

At times, the first message from the girl's parents is asking you to connect them with your parents so that they can "take things forward".

@k1 fair, appreciate the feedback. So not sharp losers are on the site according to you

Name itself says it is for Shadi. What else you think parents should ask for except your bio first ? You want girl parents to be your wingman’s !!

Doesn't the site have a full life resume to be filled out?

@p2 no but why you want to send someone their bio without seeing a picture?

@k1 so you were managing your account and initiated contact with your fiancé? Like a dating app, and parents weren’t managing your respective accounts ?

Avoid investing in coins looking at online post by random guys. If they are shilling constantly then most likely they bought it at very cheap price and ready to sell once innocent followers buy in.

STAY AWAY from SHILLERS and high circulating supply coins.

Hi Desi consultants, need a quick advice- I’ve saved around $50k in my bank account and going to liquidate another $50k that I have in fixed deposits in India (they’ll mature soon) to buy a condo here in US. However, I do not think I’ll be able to close the condo deal before Jan 2022 as such, need some suggestion as where to invest some term (6-8 months) to earn more…
