Couples, Love and all that jazz!

This one's for a dear friend. I can't tell you who, though. She'd kill me. She told me she wanted to remain anonymous and I am gonna let her do just that. (Hint hint, I call her thangachi jokingly!)

Now, I am no expert on love. I think I know what it means. But it means a lotta things. So.... back to square one.

I see couples all around me. Some are happy (They got together recently - Beginner's luck!). Some are sad ("Oh! There's no spark anymore". Apparently, they've been together for too long now). And the rest are "Okay".

But there are some couples that I really like. Now, I am not gonna take any names here. I'll discuss what I like about them, though. Actually, I'll just put down my observations about what(I think) makes them click. Hey! I can get away with anything. No one reads my blog anyway :).

1) Opposite poles attract. And stay attracted - Every "long lasting" couple (no! not in bed, dirty mind!) I know, is made up of two dissimilar people. Their tastes are different. Their way of life is different. Possibly different cultures as well. But they last. HOW....we'll never know.

2) Balancing Act - One of them is like really patient and gives in most of the time. Sure, the other person does give in at times. But 99 outta 100 times, Mr./Ms. Subservient saves the day. And it's not like they are blindly submissive or anything. They lose some to win lots. Smart, eh?

3) Lotsa "Together" Time - They are with each other lots. LOTS. Phone convos (loooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooong ones), text messages, e-mail, chat, social networking, movie, restaurant, beach, terrace hangout, etc..............Repeat as required.

4) Troubleshooter - All these guys have one particular person, who they turn to when they can't settle disputes within themselves. Usually a girl. Usually the girl's girfriend. Unusually nice.

5) I forgot.


The End.
