At times we feel so complete as a person, that we think we don’t need a companion to live but at the end of the day, everyone needs her/ him to feel loved and to live. We as humans always need a shoulder to lean on, we are independent humans who are struggling and thriving in a world where we always need him/her to depend upon.
Is it a feeling of happiness when You and Only Me changes to Us and finally to We in years ?
Is it better at times to be alone? or is it better to be with someone all alone who knows your all faces, your darkest secrets and weirdest fantasies?
When we live only for ourselves turn into living for him, for them a sense of responsibility, a sense of confidence, a sense of family instills and we change as a person. If you are single, then you are just a lonely and complete as a person and if you are married you have been trapped by your better half who completes you. If you are single you are surely strong and independent, and if you are married you have a strong hubby and family to lean on. If you are single, don’t worry as your family will not let you cherish your singlehood for a long time and one day you would be sitting with him and inlaws and your naughty kids would be hanging on his shoulders in a family photograph.
What do you prefer, a breakfast at bed at whatever time you wish or making omelets and parathas for in-laws or dining out at lavish restaurants with him and your kids in Singapore.
Being an online addict and ordering stuff, your favorite dresses and footwear or going to a mall and buying a Nutella and Mammy poki pants for them with your hubby and every month going to supermarket to splurge money on dal chawal namak mirch haldi besan and etc.
Coming to room, all alone a cup of your favourite flavor vanilla latte making all by yourself in an electric kettle, arranging your bed and taking a nap with headphones in or reaching home tired, all sweaty and receiving your kids calling out mommy and hugging you tightly and then making rotis for your inlaws and his favourites cuisines as you love being a chef for the family, especially for him.
Hanging out with friends, planning a date, a girls day out, a night out or a walk to remember with him or a trip to the Himalayas with your own family and then stopping a car as one of your kid has an urge to void at the most strange time when you know that no restrooms exist at this road for the next thousand kilometers.
Being single forever without insecurities and without worrying about your wallet, about your privacy, about your time or being with someone who is always insecure about losing you, who is always hindering your privacy as they always want to play on their mom’s phone.
Weeping to a pillow or weeping on shoulders when you feel down.
Having a savings account all alone owned by you ? or having a mutual financial account or sometimes him being your ATM card when you run out of money as you have splurged all your bucks on Amazon and Flipkart in a single day and now you badly need his credit card to pay for the gifts that you added in your cart months back ago for your favorite nand, for chacha, chachi, for their kids and their kids who live in the USA and the cycle goes on.
When ‘I don’t share food’ turns to ‘ ‘You can even have the last bite of pizza as I am not hungry’ as you say to your kids but deep down your satiety center is yelling for food.
From being a Dad princess and mom’s girl you turn into his favorite princess and their daughter too.
A table for one when turns into a table for two and after years a table for four (Hum do, hamare do).
What can be more comforting than sleeping in a cold cozy night with a blanket, all alone on a king-sized bed howsoever you wish or sleeping at the edge of the king-sized bed in his arms as you both cuddle and handling his snoring at times?
Free to roam whenever and wherever you wish or planning a trip according to both’s official schedule and then a time comes when you have to arrange a trip according to their school holidays, their exams, their studies.
Dressing up as the sexiest girl for the prom night in a blue lace dress with heels or dressing up only for him in black saree which he presented to you for the first anniversary.
Being a size zero? or having a protruding belly as your nine months journey finally come to an end to enjoy motherhood?
The ones who are single are mostly eager to mingle and the ones who are married mostly think of it as a trap.
But whatever, wherever we are whether as single or married, it has its pros and cons, we will always find happiness in, either way, decide for yourself.
