I have a suggestion for the developers of facebook….
The relation ship status option should have “it’s complicated” as a complimentary….
Eg: single and it’s complicated..
Committed and it’s complicated…
Married and IT’S COMPLICATED..
Because whoever, however and wherever you are…it’s always complicated!
Talking more about relationships– they are of many kinds
Between u and your bf/gf
Relationship between friends
Between colleagues
Between u and ur boss..
And just like marriage…every relationship goes thru different stages…
FIRST is the honeymoon period
just imagine..your first job is like being on a honeymoon…you love everything about the new place. You actually find your boss good. You are on your best behaviour….
When honeymooning your friend..you are the most compassionate, loving, caring soul and so is the other person….you like everything..yes everything about him/her and you even laugh on his stupid jokes…(girls puhleeeeease!!)
SECOND stage is what i like to call the revelation stage
When you realize that your gf nags a little too much…
When you realize your bf is looking over your shoulder at another hot chick..
When you realize your friend has other, more important priorities in her life
When you realize your boss is a ———-taking credit for all your work..
And you wonder how do i sustain??????
The answer to this lies in the THIRD stage the acceptance stage
When you accept that a person is different from the image that you have formed in your mind and often in you heart…
But then not as bad as you thought in the 2nd stage…..
I believe that any person who can make a smooth transition from the 2nd stage to the 3rd is a winner…
You boss does not sanction your holidays but your name is on the appraisal roll…
Your friend could not be present on your birthday but she was there on the day you flunked..
Your bf glances at the hot chick and then gives you a kiss on your forehead…
Your gf is a strict vegetarian but is learning to cook ‘anda bhurji’ coz u like it…
And in the end some relationships bloom…
Some just survive……
Some die a natural death….
While some end in a bitter divorce…..
