The Single Sad Girl in the Mad City

Sitting on my computer in the middle of an important memorandum i am drafting or say in the midst of my life I wonder ' where do girls get boys' . Having hit the bars, coffee shops, book store, god homes, parks , I still don't get the answer. Okay this is not only my story, but the story of all singles in the Mad City, we just don't know where to look out for good (that we decide later) atleast tolerable people.

Recently someone told me she tried these matrimonial website, she just couldn't believe such genre of people exists. Those she liked rejected her request and the ones she would never would even think of even if they were single last man on earth, kept sending her requests, infact one of the mother of the boys called also, later she requested the girl to give her daughter an internship under her. Well another one said she recently came across a boy, who's so called matrimonial bio data was got to her by her parents and the guy wrote that he is looking for fair, affectionate girl. Now she looked at her bitch and wondered wether the proposal was for the bitch named Laila or herself.

The burden of your parents turning old without a son in law is not enough to kill you,  when your brothers and sisters give you a cut off date. After reading a zillion of love stories and watching atleast two romantic movies per week, no matter how much you encourage yourself  the next day you are sitting in the bus and crying to yourself looking around for a tissue, but nobody comes and you select a corner of your dupatta blow your nose and wipe your tears.

Then all those chocolates and wine bottles and jagjit songs is only what you get. You look up the sky because somebody has forgotten to look down on you. And if by mistake you do get some what tolerable people these new terms of commitment phobia and soul searching kills the romance even before it starts. Now the expiry date of relationships are as long as the bottle of milk in your fridge.

 And this weather makes it worse when you overly dress up but you know no one will be there to put a hat on your head or a muffler around your neck you have to pack and unpack yourself. You sit close to the fire and wish you die . but whats the point if you die nothing will come atleast right now options are open.

Your best writing so far, straight from the heart, honest and unedited....maybe your God has gone for a nap, and your angels are on Toblerone break so that the writer in your becomes confident and unselfconscious...by then the nap will be over and the Toblerones finished, wrappers scrunched and binned and they would be back in action...keeping my fingers crossed. Till then you write on....
