We recently completed 6 years of matrimonial bliss, but on the 6th anniversary my dear husband was stuck in office and well all my friends and family members who knew about it were not worried about the fact that we could not be together due to his work commitments. On the contrary everybody was at their wildest imagination spree (specially all my male friends and relatives who are married). Wondering how did I get to know about this?
As a sweet gesture my younger brother and his wife posted a picture of ours wishing us happy anniversary on Facebook and what followed thereafter was hilarious. Well, what was more surprising was that my brother who posted this picture was at his wildest of imagination that day... I guess girls, these guys really can't find any thing else as interesting and exciting than making false stories of how scared they are from us. Well, when the post came both me and hubby thanked them from our distant locations and then the strings of comments followed. The first one being from my brother to my hubby, "bhai ghar pahaunch warna tu toh gaya"... Well, when my hubby entered home in the evening the next day, calls started coming in as to whether he was alright. I appreciate all the genuine concerns of all his male friends, they were all worried, "people made wild guesses like I would have not given him food, broken his head or done something really wild to make up for his absence on the d-day". I swear, guys can get so imaginative about girls. Well, how could my husband disappoint his male friends. Waise, hubby dear you cooked up real good stories to make them believe how realistic their imagination was.
Both of us had a good laugh that day. Thanks to all his male friends, I had a good dose of entertainment. All this did not end here. Co-incidentally, after being absent from our anniversary my hubby presented me a lovely ring, the reactions on this one were even more entertaining and fuelled everyone's imagination even more. They kind of almost believed that I must have surely given him a tough time and so their typical resolutions of not forgetting and not celebrating their anniversaries started doing the rounds. This time even the girls gang was participative ;) But in all this I truly understood the irony of modern day husband's. They love us, there is no entertainment in their lives without us, but their male bonding codes and societal codes does not let them accept this. They are rather more happy, making fun about it and laughing out loud. Well, guys thank you.... you all are a complete package of entertainment not only for yourselves but us too. We enjoy having a laugh over these over the top, dramatic reactions of yours. As we have accepted it, its time you all to accept that your life will be really boring without us :)
