Love ke liye saala

kuchh bhi karega. Lekin kya karega, aur kyun?

It is a bit difficult, albeit confusing to see what exactly or how exactly the desperation of a lovelorn person manifests itself. Like the Frenchman says in the Matrix Reloaded, very soon the why, the reason is obscured and what remains is just the insane desire to do something, anything to prove that you really love the person. This puts one in a very quirky position, and can make you do things that you would normally not do. Like? D on the other day actually drove 20 km on a cycle to fetch some book from a bookstore because the buses were on strike and his girlfriend needed the book.

I know what you're thinking if you are a girl reading this: "How sweet". I'll disagree, the reason being that the book could wait for at least a week, there wasn't a hurry. I was watching the Pink Panther yesterday and besides the old 1960-s aura and cinematography to everything, there was an interesting conversation that struck me. The Count, while in bed with Jaques Clouseeau's wife, asks her about her husband. She says that he is faithful, obedient, caring, etc.

The reply is, "You might have married a Labrador Dog or the Boy Scouts".

The woman tries to defend her husband and says, "But he never hates me".

Pat comes the answer, "Well, that eliminates the Boy Scouts!"

That --- that exactly is something I wish some guys understood. You have as much to give as to take. Or else you will remain in the shadow of someone forever, you'll never be able to speak up. Once that understanding is achieved, you can go to extremes!
