Re: when potential rishtas come to visit
started gettin the rishta's at 16, got engaged at 19 and now hoping to get married soon.. dunno why but i always thot i'll get married by 18 or 19 but now im 21... i think its better if u get a good rishta u shud def go for it.. rest Allah knows wht's better for us.
Good Luck!! alvena..
I wish there was a shot of self esteem available ... i'd STAT mail it to ya .... Your first rishta ... which you havnt met yet ... n you've already put yerself down in at least two posts ..... chin up my friend ... theres lots more to life and relationships then looks alone .... i'm sure you are a lovely person inside and out .... n remember if the family didn't like somthing about you ... they wouldnt be coming!
thanks very much! im usually really confident...dont know what has happened to me!
also i have 4 cousins of the same generation....and as one has already been accepted and nikkah in the pipeline my mum for some reason seems to have come under some kind of stress and is a bit pressurising....
just please don’t spill the chai on the guy or his mom…
Mujhey GS say fursat miley to mein jaa kay larkey ko dekhoon!
C’mon now lady, if you want to get married anytime soon, don’t listen to me!
but I swear it wasn’t not done on purpose 
Doll up, is sheyn really saying that to moi 
or is that a roundabout way of telling me to switch my Bimbo Mode on? 
Re: when potential rishtas come to visit
two negatives

Bimbo mode is only for “special ppl”

Re: when potential rishtas come to visit
To Alvena:
Just as you're being observed by them...they're also there to be observed by you. So, dont feel the need to do anything differently. Just relax and watch what is going on around you. Meaning, note the mother, father, the guy and how they are with your family.
Other then that:
Dont talk too much, leave most of that to your family.
Dont sit there in front of them for too long...make an appearance, stay for a bit and then make an exit.
Say salaam, smile a bit, dont look at anyone directly in the eyes, etc.
Re: when potential rishtas come to visit
my tips since u r very concerned abt appearance i'll tell u a simple but nice dress in a color that suits u most ,light make up (pick a sheer foundation tht reflects light or mineral makeup thats hardly visible but gives u that glow)n lots of confidence in urself will increase ur appeal.Natural look with healthy glow will b gud enuf.
Talk little bit ,answer their queries plus ask few general questions urself but don't ask a lot.smile but never laugh.do a little bit of serving(prepare one or two things urself as they might ask)concentrate more towards the ladies n less towards the guy.u can giv him one or two passing glance but don't stare or look right into the eyes.and as Bonbonneire said keep ur appearance short n sweet.If there r young girls like sisters or cousins u can always invite them to show ur room n there u can creat a friendly atmosphere plus u can impress them by showing some of ur accomplishments at school or work but don't overdo anything so they don't take it as arrogance
Now if those ppl giv more damn to color or weight n less to good qualties then Allah will soon bring ur soul mate to u.
