4 years back: Hey, how many girl-friends do you have ?
3 years back: Hey, do u have a girl-friend ?
2 years back: Hey.. time to find a girl for you.. Any good looking Nair girls in your office ?
( yes, there were..but they were married :( )
1 year back : Hey, all of us thought you'll find a girl on your own..u have disappointed us..Shall we find one girl for you ? There is this girl, who is my second cousin's grand mothers's uncle's daughters' son's neice... ( damn..why are relations so complicated )
Now : Hey.. heard ur Amma has started looking for suitable matches for you ?
-- I see that over the years, the girl-friend factor in queries has come down and 'arranged marriage' factor has been going up.. Can't help it..
GWBE has tagged me over a similar subject..Can't refuse the tag from college & IIMK senior :P Now lets go to the tag..
1. If your lover betrayed you what would your reaction be?
I think I'll move on.. I've come past the age of brooding over spilled milk.
2. If you have a dream come true, what would it be?
That I'm free from all constraints and get to do what I like at my own pace.
3. If you could, whose butt would you like to kick?
I hate this..Thats why I removed b'day alert from orkut :P
4. What would you do with a billion dollars?
Travel around the world ..Acquire landmark / crosswords :-)
5. Will you fall in love with your best friend?
Ah..well, possible.. Long back a friend of mine remarked to me "There is a thin line between friendship & love "
6. Which is more blessed: loving someone or being loved by someone?
Being loved by someone.
7. How long do you intend to wait for someone you love?
I dont know..It depends.
8. If the person you secretly like is attached, what will you do?
Look for another girl :-)
9. If you could root for one social cause, what would it be?
I've not come to an appropriate answer to that.. There was an NGO, Asha which I was associated with sometime back..Liked their motive..But still, I dont think its a final answer to our ills.
10. Do you lie?
Very rarely..Usually its done either accidentally or to follow some rules / decorums.
11. Where do you see yourself 10 years from now?
I firmly believe that you can't plan your life more than a span of 2 years realistically..So, not sure :-)..Would take it as it comes.
12. What’s your fear?
I dont know..Can't imagine anything right now.
13. What kind of person do you think the person who tagged you is?
She travels a lot..I think after I graduate I'll ask her to give a job in her company..Where all she travels..Scotland, Swiss, ...I forgot the list.
14. Would you rather be single and rich or married and poor?
Married & poor..And buy a sub-prime mortgage based house..There are enough ways to live in this world if you know finance :-) ..
PS:- Check that subprime link..Awesome slides..Link given by emperor prometheus
15. If you fall in love with two people simultaneously who will you pick?
I've had simultaneous crushes towards Vidya Balan & Katrina Kaif..But unfortunately, got chance to pick none :-(
16. Would you give all in a relationship?
Yes.
17. Would you forgive and forget someone no matter how horrible a thing he has done?
Yes for most..but not for all.. Shawshank Redemption influence :)
18. Do you prefer being single or in a relationship?
Both have its own advantages/disadvantages..Having said that, I think my bachelor days are numbered with increasing pressure from all sides... So,lets wait and see :-)
19. Your all time favourite song. Only ONE. And why?
Sooryakireedam veenudanju.... From my favorite malayalam movie Devasuram..
Very few songs picturise the transformation that happens in a person this much beautifully..There is one song in Kireedom too..But I like this better.And over the movie, check the link..and lot of videos in youtube too :-)

The google ads here are Bharat Matrimony, Kerala Matrimony Nair Weddings, and Shaadi.com Nair weddings.
