marriage and its learning :)

the last time i wrote a post was when the mumbai terror attacks took place........ it has been 3 months and for some reason i have not been able to push myself to write another one.... a number of things happend after that ....

1. It has been 1 year since i have been married..... dont know what has changed and what hasnt.... but i certainly know i much more aware of brands now :)

2. i know to cook and help out a little......

3. i know most of the differnt types of clothes women wear........ i still think i know the names of only half of them ...... but i am getting there

4. i now know how much moody women can be and how much little they show of it...

5. i know that you have to drive slower when a woman sits next to you and faster when a guy sits next to you in the car....

6. a small stuble - means that you are unshaved, even tough it would been just yesterday since you last shaved...

7. i no longer have a say in what clothes i wear....

8. orkut and facebook are meant not only for communication...

9. you have to be chivalrous even to girl friends whom you have know for a long time...

10. you need to take some sweets or gifts when you go to your friends places .... i mean when i go to a guys friends place...

11. women are "more happy" when you buy them stuff that they dont ask for(even if they wouldnt need it)...and they are just "happy" when you buy them stuff that they ask for(things that they actually would need)....

12. its okay for a handbag to be worth 50k... its not that okay for a music system to be 50k

13. footwear will have a minimum of 5 different types of categories.... bags i think is 10... but i am still learning...


those are the ones i can think of as of now... been a great experience over the last year... i dont mind doing all the things above :) .... i am still learning... and will update this post again next year...

for all the married men out there.... i am sure you will be able to appreciate the things above :)

believe me you are learning very important thins in life
and you have made a good amount progress in one year...
but as we way knowledge is infinite..
there are a lot of things you would realize every year ;)
but its really nice to see someone putting so much effort :)

Point 12)
I also was in the "50k in insane for handbag" impression till someone gifted me a Louis Vuitton wallet! :D
Now, I understand..

@Rituja
I think you hit the nail on the head!!

@jeet
I realise you are slowly coming to grips with a parallel universe of clothes/shoes/bags that too having different categories!

Speed is also relative wrt to co-passenger..really dunno whr guys get this idea that a fast car will get u girls :P

Over all such a fun read, u must thank Varsha for educating u well :)
