Judgemental much, Jane/John Doe?

Dear Readers,

Which is the frequently asked question by friends, relatives or even potential stalkers? 
A) What can we do to prevent global warming?
B) What is the solution for war?
C) How can we help the refugees from Syria?
D) Do you have a boyfriend /girlfriend?
Incase you're wondering, the answer is fairly obvious  (options were given to throw you off track 😈)

Everybody seems to be obsessed about knowing our status on love life (or the lack of it)! As if the statuses on Facebook weren't  creating enough drama 😧

Fortunately (because it is entertaining ) /unfortunately I've been asked "Do you have a boyfriend? " as the first question! (In replacement of a greeting)  I mean bro what's the difference between you and Guthi? (Ref: shopkeeper, blue saree hai? ) Like such questions charm the pants off, no? #SarcasmSilly

What baffles me is the ignorance which seems to be in trend! For most people, there is no variation from being friends to getting married! (Ya that escalates quickly ) Either you are deep into the "friendzone" or busy taking saat pheras!

The concept of dating, wooing hardly exists in the eastern culture! You are looked down upon by curious relatives /friends who think going on dates is a waste of time (Even immoral at times). There are many other connections between two consenting adults besides being friends or being married. Not every relation is serious or of commitment. Some are casual, some are not (You can't expect everyone to have their shit together :like moi! ) It depends on parties to the contract  (speaking legally ). There is no need to define or specify the relation if two or more (in polyamourous relationship) people are on the same page.

Times have changed and people need to start keeping an open mind when it comes to LGBT, or what type of relationship one wishes to be involved or when to get married. (Don't get me started on that topic. Maybe I shall address my views in the next post 😅)  Religion, caste, gender should not matter in love. It sounds clichéd and corny but it is something we should ponder and resolve.

P.S. Don't doubt your decision because do what your ❤ says! Oh and also keep the spark alive by flirting ;)

Xoxo
