Tomorrow you may get a working woman, but you should marry with these facts as well. Here is a girl, who is as much educated as you are; Who is earning almost as much as you do; One, who has dreams and aspirations just as you have because she is as human as you are; One, who has never entered the kitchen in her life just like you or your Sister haven`t, as she was busy in studies and competing in a system that gives no special concession to girls for their culinary achievements One, who has lived and loved her parents & brothers & sisters, almost as much as you do for 20-25 years of her life; One, who has bravely agreed to leave behind all that, her home, people who love her, to adopt your home, your family, your ways and even your family ,name One, who is somehow expected to be a master-chef from day #1, while you sleep oblivious to her predicament in her new circumstances, environment and that kitchen One, who is expected to make the tea, first thing in the morning and cook food at the end of the day, even if she is as tired as you are, maybe more, and yet never ever expected to complain; to be a servant, a cook, a mother, a wife, even if she doesn`t want to; and is learning just like you are as to what you want from her; and is clumsy and sloppy at times and knows that you won`t like it if she is too demanding, or if she learns faster than you. One, who has her own set of friends, and that includes boys and even men at her workplace too, those, who she knows from school days and yet is willing to put all that on the back-burners to avoid your irrational jealousy, unnecessary competition and your inherent insecurities; Yes, she can drink and dance just as well as you can, but won`t, simply because you won`t like it, even though you say otherwise One, who can be late from work once in a while when deadlines, just like yours, are to be met; One, who is doing her level best and wants to make this most important relationship in her entire life a grand success, if you just help her some and trust her; One, who just wants one thing from you, as you are the only one she knows in your entire house - your unstinted support, your sensitivities and most importantly - your understanding, or love, if you may call it. But not many guys understand this...... Please appreciate "HER"
excellent roopa. You could express the feelings of thousands of women. Each and every sentence is simply superb.
Dear Roopa ma'am Your message is simply superb beyond words.. It portrays the plight of women today in an exact way.. Love Meena
Hi Friends, thanks for stepping in. Please pass this to as many male acquaintances you have. Sometimes what we can't say verbally or in a quite obvious way...should be presented in a suttle manner as this. Roopa.
Hi Roopa ! After reading each line I felt I have read this only to realise that its not that I have read its that each line I have felt from my heart. Very well penned down, to the point in simple but very effective manner. fantastic Swati
Thanks Swati and Aruna. Many times our gender is taken for granted. I'll give you today's example: In this past one month there were about 8-10 weddings in our orgn. Today 2 of them came to ask me if I and Samir (my DH) are free on 5th as they wanted to keep a samll party for a few friends and colleagues. Then we started discussing the venue and food etc. At one point i said you both are deciding have you taken your wives opinion as well, they said they will agree. I said i am sure they will agree to what you have to say...but it is your duty to ask them and make them feel good. They have left their family and everything for you so now on what ever your guys do is us and not i. Roopa.
