I started a series on Like Marriage Like Football and today I'll continue with 'scouting' a very important part of marriage and football. Enjoy the read on the striking similarities of marriage and football.

SCOUTING

In football, scouting is common as clubs send out representatives to watch players of interest to them and give updates with detailed reports on the players form and attitude.

If the club is satisfied with the player’s ability as presented by the scout the club then follow up their interest with a bid.
In relationship, it is similar but sometimes the interested person makes the whole observation by himself. Sometimes a guy will talk his friend into helping him observe a girl of his interest hoping he return with good reports, guess you’re laughing now because you do it too, well it’s not totally old school it’s just a way for you to have a clearer picture of your potential girl just like clubs do when they need a player.

But scouting through other people is not always the best way because in football, for instance, if a scout’s report describes Nigeria’s John Mikel Obi in the same class as Messi and Ronaldo it can be quickly authenticated by the media or a second check by the club’s chief scout.

The biggest problem of this stage is that during the scouting mission you are not the only one scouting just like in football a lot of clubs send scouts to watch a player so too a lot of guys will be watching your potential girl hoping to put in a bid to follow up their interest.
