What is blind, if not love?
What is love, if not pure?
I never had the pleasure of love. I repeat this every time and everywhere, because people don’t believe it when I tell them. I will never have as well. And then there are people who will keep saying that we will never know, but it happens in mysterious ways. It is something like it happens when it happens. There is no fixed time or date, it just magically happens when we least expect it. But to the people who still believe that I, of all the people in the world, will “also” fall in love, I would like to repeat, “It’s not going to happen, ever”. I know myself and I know this for a fact that the love part in me is sort of broken. Having said that, I do understand love.
I will narrate two stories that I had come to know of them.
#1
Once upon a time, there was a girl who was madly in love with a guy. They guy wasn’t as much in love with her. Instead, he just liked her for the person she was, for the friend that she was and he respected her for that. But she wanted more from him, but then again she didn’t want to force him either, but she did force him as well. She did things to show off her love for him, but he just didn’t take them into consideration. She even prohibited him from talking to other girls with whom he ‘might’ start to have feelings. She sort of controlled him in a way and more often than not, he complied to what she wanted. May be he loved her as well. But there was still some air of confusion between them because he didn’t see a future with her. But she had already thought of the names of their kids. While that air of confusion wasn’t privy to the people who knew both of them, since it was kind of obvious when one is among them. The future might seem uncertain, but love definitely is certain. Well, one-sided as of now. Blind, because even after not reciprocating, still believing that one day, someday, things might just work out; or otherwise, I don’t know.
#2
Once upon a time there was a boy and a girl. The boy liked the girl and the girl too liked the boy. The boy dared and proposed to the girl. The girl didn’t say no but she didn’t say yes right away either. While the boys struggles were a success, after a few years of courtship of being ‘madly’ and ‘deeply’ in love with one another, the only task he had in front of him was convincing her parents. With nook or crook, they finally got married and are living happily.
The #2 is so abrupt, isn’t it? I know. Like where are the details and why I had to mention about it. How is it that this is special or is it like the #1? And you might as well be wondering what’s there in this as this is so common these days. Well, I would say yes, but there is a story. And I will leave you with this:
He said, “I am the happiest man, after marriage”.
Umm… didn’t convince you enough? Okay, so how about this :
“And it was a happy ending”, said one
“No, it was a happy beginning”, said the another.
_____
P.S. If at all you are interested to know the whole story, there is a series planned for it( #2 and the temporary title is P. P.). The more votes it gets, the faster I will be able to write. Just for your info. And love, it’s a vast topic. I will write about it bits, if at all there is something I have to say about it.

Ooh yaa right you know enough info in your dreams
Lol Now even your doing too much Preethi
Oh that was a dream as well? Like the one you asked me for a treat was? I get it. Thanks for clarifying. 😛
So, it’s official. Preethi is OA. Got it. 😛
Ooohhhh helllooooooooo this is different… Don’t go on my dream coz it is actually not at all a dream… Ur backing off on giving me the treat which you agreed to give…which is a reality…
OA?? What is OA now?
Treat? What treat? You dreaming again? 😛
OA is Preeti= OverAction. 😛
Ajay ur giving me the treat and that’s no dream… I know you are a good guy and you will keep your word…
naaahiiiiiiiii Ajay nahhiii…. Preethi= OA namkaran to already there from long back it’s not new
Wait. What treat? 😛
I don’t know what you’re talking about!
Oh, it’s an fact ha? Okay then.
Your giving me the cold cofand 2 brownies treat… That’s the treat that’s still pending from.your end…
If that’s what u think
I’m giving you cold? And cough? I don’t know why you want that but okay. 😛
It’s what you said.
Oyeee it’s cold coffee & 2 brownies this is what I said…
It’s cold and 2 coughs? 😛
It is Cold Coffee and 2 Brownies….
Hmmm.. I beg to disagree.. I think you’ve experienced love maybe just on a different level but may be you are not acknowledging it..
I know you’ll probably disagree with me but I believe every person will/would have experience love before they die.. unless they are a babies aborted.. unable to even see the world on the first place..
-_-
Let’s just say that we stand on different grounds in this.
You can disagree, while I will continue to say that I have never and probably never will.
Being loved/ someone loving me is something different that me loving. I hope you understand the fine line there.
As I’ve said, I know you will disagree with me. So I couldn’t change your mind.
And of course I know the difference between being loved and you reciprocating the love.. so yeah..
Hmmmm.. you know what they say, never say never?
Yeah I’ll.
Okay.
I’m not they.
-_- okay..
Hey bhagwan…. Nooo no it’s not official at all… I was just kidding
What’s not official? You have to reply to comments. Or else I will lose track of things.
Lol good loose track if things….let me confuse u a bit more
Thanks. Now I get it. You were confusing me for the treat as well. 😛
About treat there is no confusion ir dreaming at all… ur giving me the treat and that’s true…
You have such nice dreams! 😛
Teach me how to get those dreams also na.
Yaa sure Ajay…. Will teach you how to dream on such wonderful dreams When i meet you the day you would treat me with Cold coffee and 2 brownies 🙂 🙂
Lol what treat? You still dreaming? 😛
No I am not dreaming at all…. I am telling you the fact 🙂
You’re a dreamer, Preethi. Good for you. 😛
Yaa yaa right… Will get to know in the near future
Keep dreaming. Preethi ji. 😛
Let’s see Ajay Ji
Haan see, Preethi ji.
Teek hai Ajay Ji
Acha hai Preethi ji.
Haan acha hi hoga Ajay Ji
Ok
Liar.
You read this, huh? 😛
Waise, you have proof? 😉 😛
Emojis in your answer are proof enough.
Smart. 😛
I know…
let’s say your definition or should I say take on love is difirent.But that is the beauty of writing.It gives us a view of world from the eyes of an individual.Write the story as soon as you can,cause I am very eager to read it.
Well said.
I sure will write, after this challenge is done.
Waise, I read your post: The Indian goddess one, I was just too broken on the inside to comment anything. Also, you have written it well.
I am quite taken aback to receive appreciations from an amazing author.Thanks.
Wait, amazing author who?
You’re too kind to say that. And thank you very much. 😀
A person who claims that he can win against me,but an innocent fellow who don’t know he is competing against a pro.
Haha, very smart you are.
Good thing that he is an amazing author whoever that is. But wait, competing against a pro. Psst. You are good at jokes as well. 😛
Its difficult to accept that you have never received love or you will never receive one. Probably you were not open enough to accept it or see it in the form that was presented to you. And love definitely will not happen if you keep the cards too close to self. Let life happen as it should because life is a miracle in itself.
There’s a correction in that first sentence.
I mentioned I have never felt and nor I ever will. I have received love, I just never reciprocated because I just couldn’t.
And well, hoping for that miracle to happen.
Thank you so much for dropping by. 🙂
