A couple of days ago, S gave me a huge heart attack...apparently (in a fit of exaggeration) she pronounced me 'Single no more'.....Eeeeeeks! When did this happen? And how do I not know about it? Did i sleepwalk my way through meeting someone and then dating him??
Luckily, S reassured me...informing me that i hadnt said 'yes' to anyone...but it was HER interpretation of my uhh 'friendship' with W. Oops.
That just made me horribly aware that im SO not ready for a relationship. Noooohhhwayyy pronounced my brain as it wiped off the sweat from its forehead (with a tiny grey hanky)
'You NEED to be single' yelled another huge part of self rubbing in the message.
Guess its been a gabillion years since ive actually been IN a relationship..and if we're talking about the real mature kind then count each finger on both hands twice...and thats how long ive been single. ahem. Okay. let me make it easier (dooh dah)...its been a heady 20 point something years. So just the thought of tripping into something resembling a 'relaaaahhtionnnship' is enough to make me wanna double back and scoot under a sofa or something. *inches towards unlatched window*
Thing is, exposure to influences like TV, Movies, Books, Music, Reality has had one pretty unfortunate result. It starts with an EXPECT and ends with ATIONS. add 'too many' just before that and it sums up life attitude towards romantic affiliations of any kind. i know, tragic case. But its too late now. And a head brimming with the likes of Rhett Butler, Chandler Bing, Darcy and Caulfield has no right to settle for mediocrity. None whatsoever. Hence bane (or blessing) of singledom embraces me like a long-lost sister. Oddly, till the time S articulated her perception...i never realized just how grateful i was for mii current situation.
Guess i had it right all along. Im just where i wanted to be. :)

haha... at the risk of sounding 'ohh-main-preity zinta- banana-chahti hun' singledom so rocks man... but then again the whole topic brought up again n again by us single people somewhere down the line defeats the motive.. why do we need to shout out from the top of the roof... but i guess one needs to promote ones views too..:)
ps: check out oct issue of outlook city limits that is when it come out.. hopefully i'll see a write up getting published...
