When's your's? :DI hate that question….I hate that look! Okie, I’ll explain... Of late it’s been quite some marriage season…at least among my friends. And you turn up to any wedding, even reply that scanned invitation mail (I still prefer the 'hard copy', makes you realise they took the pains of hunting down your address!), the one question you have to answer is ‘So when’s yours?’ With that supposedly naughty smirk on the face, emm...smiley of course in a mail. Nothing gets on my nerve more than that. I have a strong urge to retort…’What bloody business is it of yours?’ But I am forced to answer with the same smirk… And then the conversation just goes from being bad to worse and usually ends up with me throwing yet another one of those unbelievable excuses and sprinting out of the room. It's never a nice feeling you know, when people get away with crimes like that... And this is the case in most social occasions and for most people in my age group ....sigh... We have something common now to brood over! It's almost replaced the usual Hi Hello greeting line... Friends, relatives, very distant relatives , papa's friends, momma's friends, friends’ friends… And some people whom I haven’t spoken to in the past god-knows-how-many years! You meet someone after a longtime at this point of time in life, and all that they have to do is question about your marital status; and if u're sinlge they have an abnormal interest in knowing when you'll get married!... I am reminded of an old joke in which an old woman pesters a young man at every wedding by nudging him and whispering ‘You’re next’... The young man fed up with this habit put up with her out of respect. But even his patience had it’s own limits… So at a funeral of a mutual friend, he walked up behind her, nudged her, ‘You’re next!’ Now that would make me feel so good...
