This is one of the most common conversations I have these
days, written in a very generic form
Friend: Hi
Me: Hi long time how are you
Friend: Fantastic. I just got engaged.
Me: Great, Congrats!! So when’s the big day
Friend: I’ll tell you all about it. You tell me. How are
you? Found someone special?
Me: Nope. I am happily single
Friend: Oh, don’t worry you’ll find someone.
!!!!! Hello!!!!! What just happened here? “Don’t worry you’ll
find someone? Don’t worry? “. I check my
face; I am smiling, so I don’t look sad. And dint I just say 'happily' single? I
wonder what gave her the idea that I am worried and sad and desperately looking
for this someone special. If you are a single gal and haven’t had to go through
this conversation, I’d say you are lying. Poor thing you are in denial.
But girls, the problem is not us. It’s just that our engaged or newly
married friends are so blissfully happy with their life that they think that
any other state of living is SAD.
You could say that it’s not the newly married creatures whose giggles
and the hanger in the mouth grin makes you feel like hitting them with the same
hanger and saying get out of it. You could say even friends who have been
married for years try to have the why you aren’t married conversation with you.
Those females are just plain jealous that why should they be the only ones
who have to suffer the “bliss”.
There was a time, not to long back, when my sister would go
on about how I should not worry and I would find someone just as amazing as her
husband who according to her is He-man, Superman and Batman all rolled in one
with a drizzle of James Bond on top. It got to the point where I had to
threaten my parents with grave consequences if they dint keep their daughter in
check. Yes she was newly married but the only reason I did not kill her is
because I don’t like jail.
So all you sweet people who care for a single friends
status, put this into your mushy brains, the day jails start serving chocolate
and French fires and playing 2 broke girls, you are the first person she is
coming after. Have fun!
Love
MM
