My experiments with life



Stranger …

A friend of mine made a very pinching comment on one of my habits yesterday … She said that I’m famous among my old friends that I don’t keep in touch with them … The comment was a very casual one but it did successfully pinch me right in the weak spot …

It did so because somewhere deep down in me I do know that I have the habit of doing this … I wont call it a habit though … Its more of my characteristic … Innate one … Has been there since I started making friends , since I was a tiny tot … When my friend made this sarcastic remark all of my friends that I have made since I was an infant rushed through my brain …

I remember some of my oldest friends , those who belong to the rare breed of best friends , I no longer am in touch with them … More importantly the strangest thing is that I have them in all my gtalk/yahoo/hotmail messenger buddy list , orkut/facebook accounts , yet I fail to be in touch …

Being social is one thing that I have never learnt in my life … I never initiate a conversation … I never plan an outing with my friends … I never ask girl out for a dinner myself even if I liked her … I have always waited for others to start talking to me … Have always waited for my friends to plan an outing and have always thought that the girl asks me out [ A very very silly thought which I must say ] … But I guess it never pinched me , though this thing always remained in my mind that this is the negative point of my character …

But one lame excuse that I can give for my defence is that being not in touch with my friends and forgetting them are two separate phrases … I do remember each and everyone of them … But I guess this is the lamest of excuse that I could’ve given …

Better one perhaps is an apology … If any of my friend is reading this post I apologise to him for not having been in touch with him … I will try my best to change this habit of mine [ Though I might still not gather the guts to ask a girl our for dinner :) ] … But you might be better knowing me and that this is one of my oldest habit … And old habits die hard … Still I will make effort to keep in touch … You guys try to be in contact too …

And thank you my friend [ wont disclose the name ] for telling me that I’m famous among my old friends that I dont keep in touch with them … Had you not told me this then perhaps I’d have never felt the urge to change …

    yes ur frnd was rite. u dont keep in touch with ne of ur frnds. not even me. meri to katti tujhse. hehehe….dont flame urself that much re. almost everyone has the tendency to be that way. and just loosing touch with old frnds doesn’t imply that u r no longer as good frnds as u used to be. its just that u happen to see less of them. chill maar.
    as of a girl, ASK HER OUT. u might want me to repeat this, ASK A GIRL OUT. period. she wont do that, for sure.

    Arre tere se toh meri katti hai na … Toh teri advice nahi loonga … Bilkul bhi nahi loonga … Ek baar bhi nahi loonga …. lagataar bole toh bhi nahi loonga …

    Aur rahi baat ladki ki … Toh I think she’ll have to wait for a long time before I gather enough courage to ASK HER OUT … [ Damn ... Why is it that always boys haveta do that ? hehe ] …
