Boys and girls have
never been so free and open as they are today. Boys have fewer options than
girls. Therefore they have to take care of girls in all ways. In other words,
they have to be henpecked, and they are henpecked, though they won’t admit it.
If a boy doesn’t like something which his girlfriend does, then he will have to
like it for the sake of the girl.
Girls have special
quality to ask about everything how it is. Be it their lipstick, ear rings,
necklace, bracelet, bangles, tank top, hairdos or even about things being seen
in shops. Boys don’t know much about these things. Therefore, they exclaim to
please them as much as possible by using suitable adjectives like good, nice,
awesome, wonderful, pretty, spectacular, fabulous et al. Boys can tell which
actress is most sexy or which has best features, but girls don’t ask about them.
The favorite search term of boys on Google is “how to make a girl happy?”
or like that. Whenever a girl replies them on Facebook, they feel like anything
and can’t help chuckling.
Nowadays, the way of
loving and being in relationship has been changed profoundly. It has become
more professional than before. People are more liberal today in every way. In
the past if a girl had a boyfriend, then everybody thought that they had no
chance of getting her. However, the time has changed. And so are people. Now,
if a girl has a boyfriend, boys don’t consider it a big problem and they think
that they can replace the previous boy friend. Anyway, all boys are not bad and
all girls are not good.
I have a friend, name
Vijay. He has a girl friend. He talks to her on mobile and is crazy about her.
He does like to meet her personally, but she prefers not to meet too much. She
is daughter of a professor. When Vijay asks her to go somewhere, she simple
turns it down by saying that her mom is with her or some relatives are coming.
Yet, when she needs him, she has no problem in meeting. At times when Vijay
asks her if she would like to have an ice cream, she doesn’t refuse it. Thus,
many times, I tried to explain him that she wasn’t his girl friend at all, and
she was using him, but he didn’t listen to me.
I have a habit of going
out in the evening daily and I ask Vijay too to accompany me but he doesn’t go
out. He is a very studious fellow and never likes to waste time going out with
no purpose. One day, to my astonishment, he proposed to go out. I understood
immediately that her so-called girl friend must have asked him to take
something for her.
While we were on the
way to G.T., I put my arm around his neck affectionately and asked him- “So,
what does she need today?” breaking the ice.
“Nothing yar, she just
want to meet me and requested me to get a burger for her,” he answered
reluctantly.
“You know what, Vijay!
You are a fool. She is just a glutton and wants to eat burger. Nothing much is
there. She doesn’t deserve you, man. What do you think, who is her boy friend?”I
nagged him as severely as possible.
“Of course, I am her
boy friend.” he felt very proud uttering those 7 mighty words. His face glowing
and cheeks reddened like tomatoes.
“No, you aren’t. Her
boy friend is burger. You are just a means to get it. You can’t understand it
because understating needs a brain and yours is not working at this moment. You
are a stupid and she is …. ”I couldn’t
complete my moral lecture before he cut me short.
“Stop it yar. She is my
girl friend and by the way, why do you think that she is using me and all?” yes,
he was irritated at my constant pecking.
“Okay, I have a way.
Call your girl friend and tell her that the burger’s shop was closed. If she
still insists to meet you, then I am wrong and I will pay for your burger, so
that you can give her a sweet surprise. And if she forms some excuse, then you
will buy me a burger instead of her. Agree? ”I made a bet.
“Agree. Let’s find out
the truth.”, and he took out his mobile to call her. He told her as I directed
him. After knowing that she wasn’t getting burger that day, she gave an epic
excuse for not meeting.
“Okay, then. Actually I
am tired and feeling sleepy. So let’s meet some other time”, what a lame reply,
isn’t it? Though, I expected it. I was happy at my triumph and more on the fact
that I understood his girl friend’s motive. Vijay was very upset and for the
first time he ventured to abuse her girl friend.
He bought me the
promised burger and we ate it while coming back to hostel. Vijay didn’t speak
on the way and neither did I. I preferred to concentrate on the burger. Since
that day, he never talked to that girl. I was the culprit, but I had to do it.
Burger proved better than the boy friend.
