I think a 20-year-old girl is ready to get married.” “It depends on what you want a man to give you. If you want to have money, then money becomes the most important thing. But for me the most important thing is personality. It’s too hard to answer the second question; a girl is ready to marry when she marries.” “First of all, a man’s looks. Then comes his social situation—I mean a good job, good family and his friends as well. He must not have traditional Georgian complexes, although he should respect some of our traditions. According to Georgia’s way, after 17 girls are ready to get married but I don’t agree with this. I think one should start a family after he or she is 26.” “I have been with my husband for 20 years now. We loved each other and I was 17 when I married him. I think it was too early though. To be a wife of a Georgian man is not an easy job. You need to be patient and to get along with your in-laws. I advise girls to think everything out very well, to look closely at their future husband’s character, his family, his social position, and know whether that person satisfies what you’re looking for.” “I think it’s a bit early for me to get married, since I ‘m 20 and have a lot of future plans—and marriage will be an obstacle for my future career. But when I decide to choose a husband, I will pay attention to his education and character first. Then other features.” “First of all, my husband must be handsome, then educated, and the kind of person you can rely on. Georgian husbands are very demanding and Georgian wives have to be patient. I think girls are supposed to get married after 20.” “Georgian husbands are a bit difficult to bear as most of them are ‘Asian.’ They demand too much from their wives. I will pay attention to whether or not my future husband takes my wants into consideration. I recognize sex equality and I want my husband to do so. Georgian men are handsome. They have something in their eyes that conquers you. I will marry only Georgians and none other.” “It’s love! When you love somebody you will be happy even if you are poor. But these days most people pay attention to their future husband’s family, and what kind of car and house he has. It’s horrible! Me, I like sportsmen and I want a footballer husband.” “When I got married things were different. Our men were honest, but now you can’t trust men at all. There’s no true love anymore. My husband is quite handsome and I fell for him quickly. I think character and appearance is most important.” “My husband must be a good businessman with a good life. I’m not going to live in poverty with an unemployed man.” |
