It's first day of the year and unlike people who are high on the New Year spirit (all puns intended), I'm not quite thrilled. 31st was a great evening , but as I saw some not-so-cute couples getting cosy, in stead of feeling quite amused as I usually do, I felt quite bad... not for them, for my self.
Officially, I can't claim I haven't been in a relationship. For whatever little time I was in one, I must confess dear readers, I FELT STRANGULATED. Not that the guy in question was an epitome of villainy. He was just a regular, snooty, incorrigible man. I had known him for a long and thought that he could be a guy any girl could fall back on for support. Much later did I realise that it was the other way around. I have always felt that women are born with maternal qualities, and these emotions come out best when they are dating/going around/are married to a man. And men , even when they are in a relationship, look for these qualities in their existing or prospective better halves.
Cut to present, there is somebody I know who promises to be an exception. My fondness for this gentleman has increased manifolds ever since I came to know him better. Not that we talk frequently. An SMS is exchanged in a month or so. And so, now you know, where the realtionship stands. As I asked a friend on the New Year's eve if asking him out would be the right thing to do, I felt I had opened Pandora's box. She stated the following reasons not to ask him out
1. It'd mean compromising on my dignity because the chances are that this dude may not have similar feelings.
2. Even if I get into a relationship by asking this man out, he'd have an upper hand, because I was the one to ask him out.
3. What if he doesn't pay the bill for the dinner.
Good. So that's a reason enough to stay single. CRUSH YOUR CRUSH BEFORE HE CRUSHES YOU...
I am actually wondering if it could be true...
