Finally found what I was looking for

Statutory warning: This might be boring because its a pretty long one. Read it at your own risk.

My mom asks me - when should I start searching a girl for you?.

Me - Karo chalu (Thought this process would take atleast a year considering the dame luck that has never been with me in such matters)

Couple of days later I get to see couple of pics. Mom - Chalegi? Me - U r kidding me right???

A day later I am in my office and a pic is mailed again on my id. I surreptitiously try to open it (thinking someone would watch and ask whose this) and I get a shock of my life. I call my mom and plead her not to see any girl for me. By this time I was pretty sure I cannot get a cute girl even in an arranged marriage. Hell breaks loose knowing the fact that in 27 years I could not fall in love with a girl and now even the arranged marriage is giving me nightmares.

A day later I get one more pic. This time, i see the pic, say to myself - cute!!!! By this time my parents have already arranged for our first official meet.

Saturday evening at girl's building parking lot: I asked my papa a really weird question - Do we need to go upstairs? Y can't we go back home. By now I was really feeling embarrassed by the very thought that I am going to see the girl.Trust me its a funny feeling to directly dip into this side of the world from the side of the world wherein you are constantly in thoughts like - who will alex ferguson buy in the next transfer window or will manutd win tonight or i need to ante my level up, by running 15 mins today in the gym. (For tat matter, once the girl asks me on chat, wot are ur plans. My reply - will get up early in the morning and hit the gym. Poor girl must have gone stark crazy. She was asking me about my long term plans and I was enlightening her with my next morning plans.)

Inital reaction when i saw her - cute mannerisms, cute way of talking, smart hai boss!!!(Ami, padhke jyada udd mat :) ). 5 hours later, my parents to me - so what have you decided. We toh loved her...... I seriously could not understand, how can I decide in just a single meet if I have met the girl of my life. I sheepishly asked the girl, in one of the chats, for some more time and loved her reply - "Tu tension kaiko leta, lete hai na aur time".

The following week was a nightmare for me. I really liked the girl but did not know, if it was her in my mind.(Dunno but was a daft idiot to have created some image in my mind and was trying to match her with tat image.) A couple more meets and a few more talks were enough for me to decide that this dainty damsel is the one I was looking for. That image I had in my mind got pulverized by this girl's persona, chutzpah and the charismatic nature she has!

I consider myself to be a lucky ass to find my girl in just 2 weeks and can now say:

I have climbed highest mountain
I have run through the fields
Only to be with you

I have run
I have crawled
I have scaled these city walls
These city walls
Only to be with you

I have finally found what I was looking for!

NOTE: Special thanks to:

G aka Thorpedo, diving into the abyss of my troubles and bailing me out of them, slapping my crappy thoughts off me! Trust me, this has always made a difference in my life.

Bugs aka nautanki, for being my confidante, for giving me some really good advices.

Pinaac aka the sailor , for giving me some awesome one liners. I used them to buy some time, from my parents,f or taking the decision, ;).The one liner - I have to be selfish atleast once in my life - was rocking man!lol ...My parents were flabbergasted as to from where did I come up with all these one liners in such a short span.

Kedar aka rocky balboa,for listening to my crappy thoughts and coming up with good suggestions even during the gym workouts.
