Single, Yet again :)

" Men can never be friends with the women they find attractive. "

And I was no exception . I too, fell for this beautiful girl, a junior at my college.
The 1st step for modern love is friendship. Though it may not last long, we all wish that in the so called " friendship " period, it turns into a relationship ( may or may not be love ).
And it so did for me. I was good enough to woo her and soon my status " Single " upgraded to " Committed ".

Everything seemed to be very interesting and new for the first few months. But once I start seeing her, I saw my world turn upside down. I did everything to make her happy. But I soon realised that making a woman happy is not just hard but nearly impossible.

Looking back at the six months I had spent with her, it is kinda weird. There was a clear influence of a woman . I missed my freedom, which the girls would rather prefer to call senseless, disordered, etc. .
In my effort to make her happy, I had lost all my happiness. Small small things which make a guy's world weren't mine any more.

A 7 rupee coffee at the Nescafe now cost me over 40 at the CCD. ( Not to forget that I was the one supposed to be paying for her !! )
Seeing the mobile, show " Balance 0.04 Rs " is indeed a pleasure I was so deprived of. Believe me ! for the first time in my life, I recharged for 500 bucks and it stayed that way all the six months.

I no longer played in my college football matches just because I had to meet her " EVERY EVENING ". I literally was dropped from the team which I hated the most.
There is one thing about being in a relationship, you sacrifice things saying to yourself " C'mon !! its only for her " but they just don't seem to give a damn about it.

I attended stupid b'day parties of her friends with just TV and popcorn as my sole companions. After all, it was a girls' night out :(

I missed all the ManU matches which I used to watch with my friends at the pub just because she'd want me to chat with her on gtalk all night. And due to this I was getting away and away from my friends, who left me out on all their Discos and Parties. I had been labelled " the phone guy ".

I was forced to watch stupid Hrithik Roshan and Madavan movies. 3 movies per month in PVR cinemas almost burnt a hole in my purse. I was so much outta my mind !!

I ate more chocolates and ice creams in these six months than in my whole life put together. They had been my last options, if not starve.
I bought her a " Teddy " for her b'day. The shop-keeper asked me " Girlfriend ? " . I must have said " yes, I'm so stupid ". And not only that my room was getting cleaner and neater. The clothes and books weren't messed up anymore. I even arranged flowers in my vase. Such a" woman " thing !! My deospray had turned into a cologne and I was shaving regularly.

Once you get into a relationship, in order to impress her you do a lot of things which you would not do otherwise. You try to be more decent and selective with the words you use. Being sarcastic was my way of being fun but now that was the one thing I could never do. Like I said " Please stay honey !! Please " when I actually thought " Please get out. You've bored me enough "
" You've a pleasant taste. My room now looks just beautiful !! ", which should have been " C'mon you lady !! can't you add more pink to my room. This sucks !! ".
" Dear, can you get me another brownie please ... " and I said " sure ! anything for you honey ! " ( of course ! my mistress, you're yet to pay me my 5 months' salary )
" Is there anything I can do about this ? " ... " No its fine baby ! It wasn't your fault " ( Fuck off you lady, you've ruined my life already. What more can you do to me ? )

All these were okay to some extent, but more importantly I hadn't hit on a girl for so long now !! :( :( which was the worst.

" Oh God ! what has this girl done to me ? ? ", I asked myself.
I had said YES to her the whole time and the 1st time I said a NO, we had a fight. I blew it up on purpose and had my cherished SINGLE status back. It was such a struggle !!
( I still miss the hugs and kisses though :( )
" Of course ! you gotta lose something to win something " and in this case it was my freedom and
a " Man's world " that I had won.
I hadn't checked out on anyone in these days and so now ladies here I am,
" HOW YOU DOING ;) ?? "
