Before I start writing this post, I would like to thank Surya, Nagaraj, Basu, Husen, Akay(Akshata),Uma and Santosh (NJ and V), for sharing their precious Gyan and experience with me… :)Without making much of shit, let's start with real thing…
When you take a first few steps to find a relationship for yourself in the office at following areas:
·Bus stops
·In the Bus
·Cafeteria
·Office premises
·Newspaper lounge etc…
You should know that you have very less possibility for actually finding one. The pretty face that you might go flat on and might be thinking to kick start the conversation hoping to go the long distance might already be engaged or committed or worse case married off. If it's a girl, then well you can identify with many signs.
Few of them are:
·Ring in the right hand, 4th finger.
·A sindoor
·Mehendi on hand might suggest if she s fresh from an engagement or a wedding or attending somebody else s but still chances are she might be having a long term sweetheart (college time or school time)
·Most of the time hooked on phone talks over it with lotsa shut-ups, blushes, pink cheeks, laughter and whisperings and so on.
·A special ringtone indicating the phone from special somebody when in middle of work. You might feel what if you were in that guy's place and had given the hot chick the call and talked long time….
·Many times you would ask your friend to peep into the girl's id (name or surname would do and the rest of it would be query to LOTUS or FINDER in the company intranet. First invites to coffees and subsequent rejection/acceptance would further decide the course of relationship.
And if you stepped to next step then trust me you are one lucky guy and you have lot of guts, but then challenges don't end up here. Now you have the biggest one to make her fall for you. And that's where the cheesy lines, movies, blogs or in a nutshell the common interests come up. If you happen to be from same city then nothing better than it. Trust me, the travels to the hometown would be together and the guy would make every step to ensure that the girl travels alright and with max comfort. You would pick up luggage for her, would pick her up in the auto or whatever, would book tickets for her, would get tea/snacks at the halt bus makes and would also share the same seat and the ear phone plugs with you…
For weekend (if travel is for weekend) you might not get hold of your girl in initial stages, but then the return travel is already planned and the tickets are booked. Once the relationship goes stronger, the travelling to hometown reduces and visits to pubs and MULTIPLEXES. And that's where the love steps in and makes/break the life up ahead, sounds pretty good. That's what it is making me think to get into to the clutches of love. (Not a bad idea for me…)
And, I did forget to add up that, the couple would have breakfast, lunch, tea, snacks, and tea again, dinner together. If you happen to be in Belgaum and in a typical Belgaum restaurant (old timer and a Lingayat restaurant) trust me you'd be either thrown out or you'd be insulted by the owner for having one thali and making 2 people eat(So what you are trying to save food for needy and poor people in Uganda), it's a loss of revenue for the owner that you are two in number, but eat in one thali. Eradu deha onde hrudaya, onde thali illi kelasakke barilla… And don't ever hug up or kiss in such restaurants (in old Belgaum or not so plush restaurants) you'd be kicked out with lot of moral knowledge being passed on to you by the owner…..
