At marriage reception
---------------------
She : (Introducing someone to me ) This is xyx ( name ) my aunt's nephew's cousin's ...
Me: Oh hi.. How you doing.. Nice to meet you..
(post 5 minutes )
She: Hey, u remember xyz
Me: Huh!! Which xyz ??
She: #$%^#%
- This happens both ways.. so, not much of a problem.. you tend to meet 100s of relatives.. you remember barely 10 of them..
At a shopping mall
-------------------
She:- Does this top look beautiful ?
Me:- Yes yes.. ( Have to say, there is no alternative answer to this)
- This doesn't end there.. this goes for multiple iterations.. And I've spent a disproportionately large proportion of my time waiting in-front of trial room to give this 'Yes yes' answer.. And needless to say, I've stopped looking at my credit card bill.. Finally coaxed her to take a credit card :) :)
-- post 2 - 3 hours
Me: Ah..I'm tired :(
She: #$^^%*$@ .. How can you get tired while shopping ?
At home
---------
She : (After cooking experiments) Is this tasty ??
Me:.Well...yes ( If you give this answer, the argument stops there :) )
Now, professional commitments have put us in two different countries till Jan :((.. So, the arguments have shifted to phone
Over Phone
-------------
Me: Hey..I forgot to tell you..I'm going to see a tennis match
She: Hmmm..you don't tell me anything :(
Key learning - The statement 'forgot to tell you' is a taboo :)
Having said all this, I've to say its beautiful :) .. & I miss you :(
