1 and 5 are always there. Also the new IP address makes up to something special – the lucky spot just like my eid which also makes the same figure.

If you want to -

• Move out of her life
• Don’t want a close relation with her which you think, is becoming
• Want to forget her less painfully (which happens in most of the cases)
• Don’t want to be with her anymore
• Want her to forget you
• Can’t tolerate her anymore
• Started liking someone else

PROPOSE HER

AnD

If you -

• Don’t want to loose her
• Want her to be in your life forever
• Don’t want to hurt her
• Want her to be remembering you always
• Don’t want to make her angry
• Started feeling like you can’t live without her
• Love her truly madly deeply

Never, I repeat, NEVER EVER PROPOSE HER. If you still want to, still DON’T PROPOSE HER especially when she is a typical Indian girl.

If you want to really be with her forever – just this one decision will bring 90% of all your happiness or misery…so take it very careful, no matter how much time it takes. So if you really want your girl to be your life-partner, go and offer her a beautiful diamond (although every diamond is beautiful for a girl) and still , don’t speak much (after all you are a male and not a female that you can’t control over your tongue) but ask her. Let her speak.

If she accepts, you have made the best choice in this world otherwise, she is the most foolish girl in this world – the one who doesn’t love her best friend, The Diamond (after all, Diamonds Are a Girl’s Best Friend).

It is something which was always kept as a secret between we guys but now, on the verge of getting into anything serious, we including myself, wanted to apologize for all those misdeeds as teenagers, at this place.

So in geek words, rather statements -

   1: int rejectionDecision = -1;

   2: int acceptanceDecision = -1;

   3:  

   4: String[] RejectionDecisionContainer = {"'Move out of her life","Don\'t want a close relation with her which you think, is becoming","Want to forget her less painfully (which happens in most of the cases)","Don\'t want to be with her anymore","Want her to forget you","Can\'t tolerate her anymore","Started liking someone else"};

   5: String[] AcceptanceDecisionContainer = {"Don\'t want to loose her","Want her to be in your life forever","Don\'t want to hurt her","Want her to be remembering you always","Don\'t want to make her angry","Started feeling like you can\'t live without her","Love her truly madly deeply"};

   6:  

   7: for (int i=0;i<RejectionDecisionContainer.length;i++)

   8:     if(decisionString.equals(RejectionDecisionContainer[i])) {

   9:         rejectionDecision = i;

  10:     }

  11:  

  12: if(rejectionDecision == -1)

  13:     for (int i=0;i<AcceptanceDecisionContainer.length;i++)

  14:         if(decisionString.equals(AcceptanceDecisionContainer[i])) {

  15:             acceptanceDecision = i;

  16:         }

  17:  

  18: if(rejectionDecision != -1) {

  19:  

  20:     switch(rejectionDecision) {

  21:     

  22:     case 1:

  23:     case 2:

  24:     case 3:

  25:     case 4:

  26:     case 5:

  27:     case 6:

  28:     case 7:

  29:         PROPOSE HER;

  30:         break;

  31:     default:

  32:         DON'T PROPOSE HER;

  33:     }

  34: } else {

  35:     switch(acceptanceDecision) {

  36:     case 1:

  37:     case 2:

  40:     case 5:

  41:     case 6:

  42:     case 7:

  43:         OFFER HER DIAMOND RING AND LET HER SPEAK;

  44:         break;

  45:     default:

  46:         MAY I KNOW, WHAT ARE YOU LOOKING FOR?;

  47:     }

  48: }

Still we would like to say that never ever hide anything from a girl because every girl on this earth is more innocent than any guy and she deserves the BEST. Dare to think beyond dance and sex, if you really love any girl and she will always be respecting you.

Here is a term which landed over my website and made me smile one more time – how to recover your ex girlfriend. Just Google it and you will see my blog among top results. I myself never knew that I have reached at the stage of providing consultation in love matters but at least, my blog has. The post which is shown among the search results is A LETTER TO EX-GIRLFRIEND which I had posted long time back in this year. It was really a pleasant experience to see some lovers pondering over this website. Of course, I also love to be in love matters and have been writing about personal experiences now and then .

There are also other search terms which have been bringing love-birds to my website and few of those search terms which I remember from long time are – girl friends in gurgaon (Mates) and getting married in punjab (Punjab). This second term had disturbed me sometime but after close analysis, I could understand that after going recent marriages of close friends and sharing their experiences, and then having 66% married people in our lunch team (Architecture + DWH combined) , it is pretty obvious that you start getting into the marriage matters. Just yesterday, Deepak was discussing with other sufferers about how to make your married life colorful and there were lot of tips showered on the newly married and the enthusiasts. And today, matrimonial websites were the subject of conversation over lunch…in fact I was the one to get into this subject at very start saying that I have never been to any matrimonial website.

Well, now I think, I am poised to mention total seven search terms among my blog stats (of course on same subject) out of which, three I have already mentioned. Rest 4 of the terms goes like -

4. impressing a girl (Impressing a girl) – well now that counts, I don’t know from where people find search terms for getting personal matters. I had never expected if someone will ever be able to read it after it got buried under my archives but it is happening.
5. marriage invitation content in hindi (An innovative marriage invitation) - I had posted this invitation and also appreciated it. May be, one reason of posting it was because there were marriages of my friends going in that season!
6. i love pink (Why do they love Pink) – A funny question which keeps appearing in my mind again and again that why the creatures, mostly called stupid, can love such a cute color, the pink color, and why only one color?
7. nick names of girls in India (Few Forwards about Girls and Chennai) – Well I am completely clueless about this one…

All I can conclude is that there is lot of love and marriage happenings and communication has been happening around me and there is no harm in discussing important tips to make your love life more lovely and your married life more splendid & successful…but don’t bring me into any of them because Both of them are injurious to health when taken in excess! Also remember few more that I have collected from my personal experiences with so called Love gurus -

• Love isn’t all about getting (Ishq di mere mitra pehchaan ki, mit jaave jad yaara jid apnaan di).
• If you fall in love with someone and quite sure that you both like each other, it is not more than infatuation if s/he doesn’t accept that s/he also loves you. Bravo you that you took first step to propose that one!

One final tip – Girls are emotionally much stronger than guys and crave it over your brains, you die-hard lovers.
