Teenage Single hood

Posted in Project HappinessTagged , , , , , , , , , , Leave a comment

I am an Alcoholic. Sorry I meant “Single”. In a Nation with an Uneven sex ratio,  The Beginning of the 21st Century wasn’t as Good as it was meant to be. We didn’t have Tinder Nor Facebook. And we definitely didn’t have Selfies. 

Note: When you are asking someone to take a photo of you, It’s called a photograph. Not a Selfie.

So I’ve been Single all through my Teenage years till My Post 20’s. I’ve missed out on High School moments such as Proms, Passing notes in Class aka Old School Texting and Crushing on the lacrosse Team Jock’s Girlfriend.

Male jealousy

A post shared by Amir (@maxalric) on

 

My Education On the opposite Sex was limited. How to Interact with them, How to Behave around them, Everything would be via Trial and Error Method. There weren’t any books or 101 courses on Social Interaction with Woman. Thus, within a limited Window of rare opportunities, I had to pursue this knowledge. Which sometimes came at the expense of Others.

 

But I was still unprepared for those moments when I met some one I really liked. I couldn’t convey my Interest to the Other Person. And I would watch in Agony when Some one else would swoop in to sweep her away.

 

Such Occurrences have had destroyed my Self Esteem. I can’t remember the Number of Times I have blamed my upbringing. And doubted my Physical Attributes. I wondered if the colour of my skin added to the complication. Does having a well built muscular body Increases the odds of the attraction. Do I need to be a master of the Game?

Bad hair day

I have even found myself at 2 am sitting on a Road partition wondering if it was worth it. Spiralling of a negative Cliff, I ranted while my friend Alex patiently lent me his ear. And When I’ve said all I’ve had to say, his advice was for me to be patient. Unfortunately for Charming guys Like Alex, waiting is as momentary as breathing.

Wait, Be Patient. Pursue what you love and you’ll meet some one who does so too. But I never heard of the non-proactive bird getting the worm. So I gave up my quest to find a partner. And started on a journey to Self love. I’ve to admit, It had been a better endeavour. .

Paranormal Cativity

Hour 1

It’s was a Normal day with a bright Morning and a lazy Afternoon. I was enjoying my Siesta till It got a little bit nippy. Seems we had a brief drizzle. Though It was not reported on the News. I was about to head to the kitchen for a snack when I heard a loud “Crack”. The Sound drew me to the window. At first I thought it was the weather. I never really liked a Storm. But that’s when I noticed the print of a palm on the glass.

 

Hour 2

I didn’t pay much heed to the sound or the window. Cause it wouldn’t have been possible for some one to climb to the 10 floor. Unless you are Spider man. But I was in the Kitchen when I heard the Pitter patter of feet from the living room.I ducked my head to find the room completely quiet. Must be the kids from downstairs. Time for the Telly. But I felt a warm breath on me.  The Ventilation must be acting up.

Hour 3

It’s getting a bit odder. I can see someone from the corner of my eye. But they choose to disappear when I turn towards them. Am I going Catzy?

 

Hour 4

Things are Starting to spiral. I couldn’t face the Uncertainty anymore. This could be a haunting.  I’ve decided to go to bed. Hope it would be better tomorrow.

 

Hour 5
“Shhhh”. Don’t make a sound. I think It’s under the covers. Afraid to look down.

 

Hour 6

It’s gone. I heard the opening of a door. It must have left. Finally it’s over. Wait, I can hear noises. It’s coming back. Omg there’s two of them.

 

The Explanation.

Hour 1

It’s been a long day at work. Got home just before the rain. The Cat seemed to make himself at home. Brought him over from the pet store last night. He slept through the entire journey. I must have left the Cage Open. Cause he got himself out. He seems to be Transitioning well to his New home. I pushed open the Window. Cause the living room was a bit Musky. Was in the bed room when I heard it Close Shut. It Must be really Windy Today.

Hour 2

Left him some food and water in the Kitchen. I Switched on the News. Hope it doesn’t disturb the Cat. Went to put on my face mask. Walking around to let it dry. The Cat seems to be enjoying the Telly. So Cute.

Hour 3

He seems to be Ignoring me. Does he not like me?  Very well then, I shall try to engage him in a game. When ever he turns towards me, I shall hide myself behind a pillow. It would be like peekaboo.

Hour 4

Mr Cat doesn’t want to play anymore. He’s gone over to the bed room. May be I should take a nap as well.

Hour 5

It was a good nap. The Cat was staring at the ceiling. Later, I Would be having company over. I  need wash off this facial cream.

Hour 6

There’s the Bell. Right On time. Well My friend. Aishah did say that she loved Cats.

6.  Patience is a key. In India, People don’t form a line to get on a bus. It’s more of a funnel.

Building a tolerance to these kinds of situations definitely helps when you have to wait while she’s getting ready.
