Abstract


                                                             Abstract

One of the critical stages in the life of the individual is when a young male or female has come of age and he or she needs a partner to live the rest of his or her life with. Choosing the right partner is not as easy as one thinks. There are a lot of fears of how the marriage will end if the wrong choice is made. So, intending couple are always careful when they come to this stage of life.   Analytical hierarchy process (AHP) has been a vital tool in decision making under uncertainty   in every field of life. Though uncertainty is inevitable as far as life is concern, but it can be reduced once the right judgment is made based on available information. In this research, a critical judgment and conclusion which will be of help for the lady to decide were made.  From table 5 above, the right choice for the lady according to the judgment of the panel is Lucky whose priority is 0.499.  Without any doubt, if the lady should go for John, she will definitely have unsettle home in future if peradventure she produces children with the sickle cell gene which is one of her fears. Thought she loves John more than Lucky, she can easily develop love for Lucky as time goes on. With the decision of the panel most fears and confusion of the lady have been drastically reduced.
