Getting Nowhere...

There was a discussion - a pretty heated one that took place between me and my roommate. There are some sissies who say that you must look at the whole youth female population of the world as your sisterhood, except your wife. This blog is strictly not for that kind of people. If you are, then better get out of here before you change your mind. I am talking of the kind who, look at every young, attractive girl, other than his sister, as a probable. It started off with a straightforward question:

“What do you like in the supplement pages of Hindustan Times that you carry it all the way to the office and never bring it back?” Rohit asked.

“But of course the party scene and the related gharals in Mumbai.” No hiding from me.

“You always talk of the soulmate, a person with whom you are destined to build a life for yourself. The why do I observe you drooling over each and every goddamn female, who ostentatiously projects every part of her body?” A tough one it actually made me think. I had to be back at the consummacy of theory framing in order to convince the recalcitrant fella. I started off…

“Female beauty is of two kinds. One’s the beauty of the body, the outward appearance and the other is the beauty of the soul, the inner beauty. Both these kinds have an effect on a male. If they don’t we’re not talking of males.” He nodded in acquiescence. We were getting somewhere.

“The beauty of the body, the first kind, has a temporary effect on the mind of a male. The effect may be for minutes, hours, or in some cases even days. But that’s it. What ensnares you is the beauty of the mind. The effect is permanent. What the supplement does to me is something that keeps me happy, temporarily.” Funda framed and the first question answered..

“Now when you see a girl, the first thing that gets you is the outward beauty, because that’s what is visible in a girl, the first time you see her. Now if you’ve got it in you, you will approach her and talk to her. Out of all the females you approach, your search ends with the female where her inner beauty matches with your idea of it. That is your Soulmate.” Soulmate defined.

He nodded. I never cared to reflect on what I’d said, till now. Sounded pretty convincing eh?

dude... i think u got the funda wrong. its more like this. there are many beautiful women out there. there are many beautiful women with beautiful souls out there too. all of the second category are potential soulmates. if u have got it in you, u approach one of em. she throws u off. u approach the nexx. she doesnt throw u off. hence, she becomes ur soulmate. if the first one had not thrown u off, then THAT would have become ur soulmate. all the feeling-soulmate-squishy mush in love comes later. the overriding factor is convenience. convenience in the sense that BOTH parties gotta agree. and these BOTH parties gotta agree BEFORE one of em finds some1 else. its timing, convenience. love is an entirely non-causal system: thats why there is no 'ideal' love in practice. once u find the one who likes u too, then u can afford calling it love. then u get to call her soulmate. then u are satiated coz u have some1. until then, u keep looking at page 3 coz all u have is a jerk off.
