Marriages – and people getting into it!!

Posted by dipanjan on November 25, 2008

These 3 weeks are going to be the most “marriage invitation” infested weeks that i ever had.

Now since i stay out of my home around India for most of the time, I really don’t get to attend marriages, I mean the bengali ones which though a matter of debate is one of the most delightful place to be in if you are a food connoisseur or rather a foodie!!

Anyways this time its not anybodies marriage that i can just whine and forget about but these are- so called special times for my really really close group of friends who for some reasons getting married at almost the same time, I mean who knew where peer pressure can land people in.

However in this case most of my friends had partners to get married with, some honestly were going around for quite sometime, some were friends, some acquaintances, I mean those who were really running in this “Get married this year competition” could stand in line with their better halves –> that they would find out anyways in due course of time, I sincere think unlike some of my friends is that that the pleasure of marriage for men is in push( well this is really a crude way of looking at it but we love it) but sometimes it can come round to you as getting pushed at or worse getting shoved up ours….if our better halves are better in everything else other than what you had expected of her.

Now that’s really mean of me, Marriages are something which is really special, a BIG decision in our life to take responsibility and share our life with the chosen one…. etc… etc …etc….

I guess they are really ready to do it with whom ever they could with whom ever they should…

The worst affected people in this whole thing are not the bride or the groom or the stereotypical bride’s father or his family, its the friends or well the unmarried ones AKA ME.

 Now i really wanted to shout out and say that ‘m not ready to get into it or i still am not bored to death with myself or my social life is fine thank you….Seriously world is not at its end even if we are trying our level best to do that and as far as i know women are still not listed in the endangered species category….but alas you get to field such silly questions or asked to meet or are shown people in the party who you had never seen before (come to think of it i don’t quite disapprove it since you get to have ready introduction to a chick) and then you get that “funny grin with the dancing eyebrow” look from the self styled marriage brokers. Honestly this did not happened to me or rather not yet…but this time ‘m not really sure.

Anyways I’m really looking forward to it…I mean the marriage and meeting friends part…and sincerely hope and wish they does a one up on each other in terms of food at the party ;-)

    lol, just what I had in mind and was about to be my next post. Infact, mine was going to be on anniversaries that I’m attending these days as only 4 out of my closest friend circle remain to be married. Out of those 4, 2 are getting married by the end of this month itself. Rest have been married for more than a year already, so I’m attending a lot of anniversaries these days instead…
