Never love a Database girl since she always wants her husband to be a Unique key.

Never love a C girl because she always has a tendency to break things and exit from
house.

Never love a C++ girl since u may encounter some problems in inheritance.

Never love a Java girl since she always throws Exceptions.

Never love a VB girl since she may have a Divorce form with her always.

Never love a ASP girl since ###################

Never love a UNIX/C girl since she may always dump u with a core.

Never love a Pascal girl as she always scolds u as Rascal.

Never love a COBOL girl since she may be very good in the division of the family.

Never love a Network girl since she may be very good at shooting troubles on you.
