If you're still single at the age of 25, your parents throw their >hands up in the air and proclaim: "it's too late!" > >3. If you don't live at home, when your parents call, one of the first >things they ask you is if you've eaten..even if it's midnight! > >4. When family friends come over, you have ten conversations going on in >the room at the same time..very loudly. And when they leave, your >parents make comments such as "did you see what she was wearing?" > >5. When an invitation states the time as 8.00 pm, you arrive 1-2 hours >late, in true Sindhi-time fashion. > >6. You avoid public places when you're with a date, especially if >there's a chance of you being spotted by another Sindhi person. > >7. The whole Bhaiband, Amil, Shikarpuri thing is mind-boggling to you! > >8. You fight over who pays the dinner bill. > >9. If you're a guy, you probably study Business/Economics at University. > >10. If you're a girl, your main aim is to find a Sindhi guy with Vitamin >"M" (Money, Mansion and a Mercedes). > >11. You most likely own a Mercedes, BMW or Lexus....in silver or gold. > >12.

No worries, you'll probably meet them at the >next lavish Sindhi wedding. > >13. Speaking of weddings, it is an embarrassment if there are less than >600 people at your wedding... which most likely will be held at some >exotic place like Phuket, Bali, Cambodia, or the ever-popular >Sindhi-central: Hong Kong. > >14. You probably eat more Italian/Chinese/Thai food than traditional >Sindhi cooking (bet ya don't even know what's considered "typical Sindhi >food!"). > >15. You secretly wonder/hope if you will ever find a Sindhi girl/guy >that's right for you. > >16.
