To part or not to part, that is the Question


I know at least two of my fiends who are currently in a relationship with LOSER boys & the worst part of it is that they know it too. Still they do not have the courage to break it off with them or even if they do it’s always a ‘last Chance’ for him........

`Babe` is Uber Rich, fashionable, sensible, full of life, humorous, straightforward & more importantly has a good heart but is shy of her looks (she being a bit on the heavier side or as I would call it Pleasantly Plump).

`Kiki` is independent, successful, great dresser, just gorgeous & has a close friends list that will make a Top Delhi socialite jealous, she is not approachable. Her confidence is her nemesis as she will not even talk to you till you have been formally introduced & approved by a confidant.

What both of them have in common is that they are in their early thirties, both believe that society expects women in their age bracket to be committed to someone and that it is better to have a man in you life than none at all. So they continue in their paltry relationships hoping of a brighter future.

I really want an answer on this do you have to be in relationship for the heck of it? Or is there really a dearth of Sincere eligible Men out there…….?

R u searching for Mr. Right or Mr. Good enough for right now?

Well i think you dont have to be in a relationship just for the heck of it. But again there are so many who would be with someone for the very reason that you rightly said.

That said, I feel there is nothing like Mr or Miss Right..It is largely about finding that connect thats there to stay..

So lets see when that comes by, I would rather be without one for now :-)

Cheers!

I dont think its important to be in a relationship just for the heck of it. I too know so many people who are simply dragging their relationships, for no reason.

But again its a personal choice so nothing much can be said and done. Still personally speaking, I would never advise anybody to be in a realtionship where there is no mutual respect and love. RESPECT should be on the top of the list.

both the arguments are true...there are a lot of people who stay and decay in relationships esp coz society doesnt take kindly to single women.

but a lot of women do realize that they don need to push themselves over the cliff if they cant find mr right.

I honestly think some people just can't be alone. It doesn't make a difference how bad their relationship is, they would rather be in a bad relationship than to not have one at all... some of them are probably just hanging around until something better comes along.

Then there are always those that think "Well, this is the best I can do..." because of low self esteem or lack of confidence in themselves, like Kiki.

Good post! I enjoyed reading it!

And, by the way... you have an award on my blog! :) Swing by and check it out if you have a minute!

I believe it's not easy for everyone to be alone..dey need sumone..so dey stay in the relationship..not for the heck of it..but bcoz dey 'need' it..
Dat's y most of us even try to make it wrk..ven dey know in der hrts dat it's over..so der's always a 'last chance'...'a lil hope'...
I don't think there is ne Mr. Perfect or Miss Right!! It's d connection dat matters..
I always enjoy reading ur posts..keep writing :)

I was talking to a friend about this recently. (She finally got out of a bad relationship.) I asked her what made the "light switch flip on". She said when you are in the mist of it, no one can tell you anything. But deep down you know they are right. Eventually you learn a lesson from it. Sooner or later the cracks in the foundation become big enough to make it all fall apart. And then it's about rebuilding yourself. Happy with yourself, you'll NEVER accept less. And then when a great guy comes along, you notice it and life is better for it.

relationships relationships relationships!!! wat r they,mere words that people have no clue about... i mean d real meaning of it...i think one shud identify wat they want out of a relationship...n people who say they dont,are lying...so if u get want u want (n vice versa offcourse) u hang in there,if not move on...to d next relationship...in a population of 10 million people I am sure u can find some connection, wid someone, somewhere...if not try Vodaphone...hehe

sometimes a person's need to be with someone is greater than their need to be treated well.

How about Mr. Good-Enough-For-Right-Now?

Haha.

Cuz, you see, Mr. Perfect will have a tendency to like Ms. Perfect. Innit?
