Ramanujan has been described as a person with a somewhat shy and quiet disposition, a dignified bearing and pleasant manner. He was also known to be extremely sensitive. On one occasion, he had prepared a buffet for a number of guests, and when one guest politely refused to taste a dish he had prepared, he left immediately and took a taxi to Oxford. He also lived a rather spartan life while at Cambridge. He frequently cooked vegetables alone in his room.

By the age of 17, he had independently developed and investigated the Bernoulli numbers and had calculated Euler's constant up to 15 decimal places. His peers of the time commented later, "We, including teachers, rarely understood him" and "stood in respectful awe" of him. |
After some initial skepticism, Hardy replied with comments, requesting proofs for some of the discoveries, and began to make plans to bring Ramanujan to Cambridge. Ramanujan was at first apprehensive to travel overseas due to religious reasons, but eventually his well wishers prevailed upon him and he agreed to come to England.
On 14 July 1909, Ramanujan was married to a nine-year old bride, Janaki Ammal, as per the customs of India at that time and began searching for a job. Ramanujan did not live with his wife, however, until she was twelve years old. With his collection of mathematical results, he travelled around the city of Madras looking for a clerical position. In 1911 Ramanujan approached the founder of the Indian Mathematical Society for advice on a job.
