Love-Part I

Love...........I am sure this is going to catch the attention of a lot of people who visit my blog. Most probably a subject where everybody has something to say, contribute and share. So here is my share but this is not a biographical analysis of love but a cynics point of view on it. Sometimes I wonder why there is so much of hoopla on this emotion....I write this post in reaction to my being beaten senseless by "Happy v day" messages from friends, relatives and whomsoever I knew. I tried various tactics on this day...I started with "thanks same to you" thinking that this would be the safest way to get it off my back...but then worst was to come with this reaction being seen as an encouragement I was bombarded with calls from females...."What place should we (they and their finace, boyfriends etc...) get booked for dinner tonight, everything is booked" my rational answers to options where bookings might be available were " Hey! that is not romantic enough.Thats's is a place you and I go out to everyday (my poor bruised ego)". So I tried getting rid of it by suggesting some places which I knew would fit into their ideas as romantic but unavailable but to my disgust instead of calmed nerves it resulted in them raving and ranting about how those places were not available and they had tried everything. But the the words which seemed to do the trick with them was "Hey honey does it really matter where you go, it is the company that matters; how much fun you have with him.....and my dear friends as emotional as they were bought into it and the same places which were unacceptable to them till fifteen minutes became attractive because they would not be crowded and they would have some time for being together....or whatever I said as it came to my mind"
