Today, sitting in Audi 09 of PVR at Forum Bengaluru, and watching Saif bowling all so cheesy comments at Kareena (which she was actually batting to... and surprisingly well enough), I wondered what does a guy need to do in order to woo a girl. About 3 years ago, I had posted “How to look at a guy in 8 ways!” and had got good enough queries from all my friends of not so fair gender for delivering a KT session (knowledge transition – a famous term in the IT sector). After lots and lots of pondering, even after having a “Girls are NOT dumb” kind of session with Apoorv, I never was able to actually figure out a good and well planned manner that one can execute? Probably because I have never ever felt like wooing a girl and also never got a chance to break hearts. I can never bring up a plan guaranteeing a 100% success like the one of SRK – “6 din and ladki in”! (Ohh well I had to mention KHNH, after all it was a KJo movie that triggered this thought process, and well all KJo movies are usually kind of cheesy)!
Looking around I find all my friends, some in knee deep and some in above the danger level ocean of mushy gushy love. And in fact not just me, even if you pause for a second and look around you, you’ll definitely find the life size couples from Eric Seagal’s Love Story or to relate it to the today’s junta Chetan Bhagat’s 2 states (I hear people are relating it to their very own lives and love lives). Anyways, coming back to the topic, when I go through the ways in which the couples around me came together, I do find a variety and an inconsistency in the behaviours. But again, there are actually some things absolutely common and so to be on a safer side and also to maintain your interest in the post, I will list them down here.
1. One Love - Tell her that she is the only one and is always going to be. No ogling, bird watching or checking out the other specimens.
2. She is the angel, your darling angel – Remind her that daily, every morning and every night.
3. No chiggy wiggy here – She definitely wants you to be her charming prince, her knight in shining armour. Don’t let her feel as if it is just a fling or else you gonna pay big time (of course I’m talking about the shopping expenses).
4. No cheese or muffin (basically anything high in calories) please – Girls hate that. You don’t ask them for a band aid and then tell them that you fell for them the moment you saw them... it sucks.
5. High maintenance always – You do need to invest, if not money then time for sure. Some would want both while some would be satisfied with either, but then again no pain no gain.
6. Happy B’day my love – Never, never ever forget the Birthday... tie a knot in your handkerchief, enter a reminder in your cellphone or make your sister remind you, but do not in any case - not even in 2012, forget the day she came down on earth and that too just for you.
All this and I’m sure you will be able to sail through the whole Pacific Ocean yourself. I’m no Hitch and I definitely don’t host the Ugly Truth, so don’t run and come to me for any advice in case anything goes wrong... which I’m sure will definitely do (it always does)... just learn from your mistakes and try never repeating them again.
