When Boy Meets Girl...

February 14, 2012

(Valentine's Day)

I can't write much about love stories as my experience is nil in the field. But I do love to hear love stories with happy endings, and my heart loses a beat and says, 'how romantic'. But when I hear stories with sad endings it says 'really pathetic'.

Most of the love stories never have happy endings because of many reasons... like girl's dad in 'bad guy's role', 'religion', 'imported guy', 'Love triangle or pentagon'...and so on.


Step 1: Both girl and boy madly in love

Due to some malfunctioning of both girl's and guy's hearts they will fall in love with each other. They count all the trees in the park, walk the roads holding each other’s hands, eat in restaurants and talk only about love, love and, yeah, love. Even if the guy has no money he will borrow from his friends and take his girl for an ice cream or a movie. He won't mind flicking a 500-rupee note from his dad’s wallet to gift a teddy with 'I love you' message for his girlfriend.


Step 2: Girl's parents not ready to accept her lover boy

Girl says, 'Sweetie, we can’t be together. I don’t wanna go against my parents. For my two years' love I can't betray my 22 years' love'.

Boy says, 'Don't say that. I can do anything for you... Give me some time to get a job and settle down'.

Girl says, 'Try to understand baby. Time is the thing which I don’t have. But remember this - I will always love you'.

Guy starts crying. Tup tup, the tears fall. He hugs her and says, 'Don’t leave me. Please sugar, I need you'.

Girl wipes his tears and says, 'Don’t cry baby' and then kisses...Humm..on his forehead.

Girl starts walking and guy stands there watching her disappearing figure.


Step 3: Girl gets married

Girl is all excited to marry a guy in the US. She sends invitation to her so-called ex-boyfriend. He sees the invitation, memorises the venue and date and tears it and dumps it into the dustbin. Girl shops happily for her wedding while guy starts boozing. Guy forces his friends to listen to his 'love story with the sad ending' at least 10 times a day. Guy’s friends curse the girl and booze with the guy and console him with their own failed love affairs.


Step 4: Girl updates honeymoon pics in FB

Girl uploads her happily-smiling wedding pics in Facebook. She doesn't forget to upload her honeymoon pics too with title 'Me with my better half'. Guy sees the pics and says '&*%$#', his friends see the pics and say, 'looks like a big shot, lucky &*%$#'. Guy gets angry and says, 'dude mind your tongue'. Guy’s friends stare at each other.


Step 5: Girl and guy run into each other

Guy stares at her and girl tries to escape his piercing glance.

Guy says, 'How are you?'

Girl says, 'Good, and you?'

'Good. Do you love him?'

'Yes. He is a good man.'

'Are you happy?'

'Very much.'

Guy says to himself, '$#%^& played with my feelings and emotions and now enjoying with the imported guy'. He controls his anger and says, 'I am happy for you. Gotta go. See ya.'

Girl stands there watching the guy's disappearing, musculur back.

Guy thinks, 'She looks like aunty, poor US guy.'


Step 6 (Last step): Guy gets married

Guy gets married and uploads wedding pics in FB. Girl feels jealous but still comments 'Congrats'. Guy’s wife sees the comment and says, 'Who is this woman?' Guy chuckles and says, 'One of my classmates, she is a big time loser.' Guy thinks, 'Good that I didn’t marry that selfish #$%&'.


If your love story has a happy ending then be happy. If you love story is similar to this, then it's time you move on.

Nevertheless, Happy Valentine's Day!

    Nice article on Valentine's day. Interesting to read about love. Of course it is natural to fall in love at young age by attraction or other features of both Boy and girl. If one fall in love be firm and take a bold step in that direction whatever difficulties face or take the consent of both the parents then fall in love other wise love is temproary and dangerous also sometimes go beyond the limit what is called romantic or mad in love.

    If two ppl are in love then they should end it in marriage. they will know all the problems in the beginning itself, so i feel that Break up is not an option.They should support each other and should stay together at any worst condition.

    Brilliantly drafted Sylvia.... and I could say, this do happen with todays generation. Guess, this would be an eye opening article for the young generation, who mostly want to get into a love relationship, without even knowing what is their aim or ambition in life. Keep going with such good articles and wish you a Happy valentine's day.
