Today I went to meet Vivek. Our love was accepted by our parents and they were agreed for our wedding too. He had asked me to bring address book to distribute the wedding cards. But in a hurry I forgot to take it with me. Vivek inquired about the address book and got upset when he learnt it wasn’t with me.

I said sorry to him numerous times but he remained silent and stayed the same the entire time I was with him. I constantly tried to bring smile on his face but he was lost in his own thoughts. When I was coming back from his place I asked once again ‘what’s wrong with you? Is it such a big deal if I forgot to bring that address book?’

My mood was spoiled. He didn’t even turned back the time I was leaving for home. My eyes were moist. I thought about the whole matter. What could be the reason of Vivek’s disappointment? Was he looking for the address of any girl? Any special? But what the hell I am thinking? Vivek is not of the types. Is our love dieing? After marriage how our relationship would grow further? No. I would have to talk about it to Vivek.

Reaching home Vivek wrote in his diary -”Nothing left to live for. The day was very bad. How India could lose the match? And Sachin, what happened to him…”

Male and female react differently on a certain issue. It’s easy to say and hard to get.

Now add up the total number of points.

OVER 60 POINTS
Others see you as someone they should “handle with care.” You’re seen as
vain, self-centered and one who is extremely domineering. Others may
admire you, wishing they could be more like you, but don’t always trust you, hesitating to become too deeply involved with you.

51 TO 60 POINTS
Others see you as an exciting, highly volatile, rather impulsive personality; a natural leader, one who’s quick to make decisions, though not always the right ones. They see you as bold and adventuresome, someone who will try anything once; someone who takes chances and enjoys an adventure. They enjoy being in your company because of the excitement you radiate.

41 TO 50 POINTS
Others see you as fresh, lively, charming, amusing, practical and always interesting; someone who’s constantly in the center of attention, but sufficiently well-balanced not to let it go to their head. They also see
you as kind, considerate, and understanding; someone who’ll always
cheer them up and help them out.

31 TO 40 POINTS
Others see you as sensible, cautious, careful and practical. They see you as clever, gifted, or talented, but modest. Not a person who makes friends too quickly or easily, but someone who’s extremely loyal to friends you do make and who expect the same loyalty in return. Those who really get to know you realize it takes a lot to shake your trust in your friends, but equally that it takes you a long time to get over it if that trust
is ever broken.

21 TO 30 POINTS
Your friends see you as painstaking and fussy. They see you as very cautious, extremely careful, a slow and steady plodder. It would really surprise them if you ever did something impulsively or on the spur of the
moment, expecting you to examine everything carefully from every angle and then usually decide against it. They think this reaction is caused partly
by your careful nature.

UNDER 21 POINTS
People think you are shy, nervous, and indecisive, someone who needs looking after, who always wants someone else to make the decisions and who doesn’t want to get involved with anyone or anything! They see you as a worrier who always sees problems that don’t exist. Some people think
you’re boring. Only those who know you well know that you aren’t.

To meet, to know, to love and then to part
Is the saddest thing of many a human heart
The time passes through years
And our smile comes with tears
A feeling of sadness and longing
Is mixed with pain
but see, we only apart to meet again

Aksar tanhaiyo mein, gam-ae-rusvaiyon mein
Jhank kar dekha jab humne, dil ki gehraiyon mein
Shaakh se toota hua ek patta nazar aata hai
Duniya ka har gam ab sachcha nazar aata hai
Is patte ki tarah kahi toot na jayein hum
Waqt ke thapedon se kaho loot le jayein gam
Ae khuda hamein bhi jeene ki chahat hai
Is zamane ki khushnumaiyon mein

-by my friend Uttara
