First off, the title of this post is borrowed. I use that because that line comes to mind when I think of love and the roller coaster that come along with it. Since it is Valentine's Week, I think it won't be a bad idea to blog about the story of my dramatic love experiences. Unlike in the West, the wave of Valentine's day in the countryside is weak. Only text text text and more texts. For the whole week, the many enthusiastic friends I had will constantly keep forwarding me texts with the name of the day as is in Valentine's culture saying I have to propose a girl on a particular day and so and so. Funny though. Finally, the day will come, everyone expecting a lot to happened. Yet, it doesn't, and it won't. It is just another day for those falling in my category, the so-called "single".
By saying I am single, I do not meant to say that I have always been single. I'd been in love, been loved and had been in relationship, too. The first time I saw someone "pretty" was while I was in Class - II, to a girl in my class. I can't actually remember now how she looked like, but I guess she was beautiful, or else why would she stand out? However, after a couple of months, she went to another school and we lost each other. In Class IV, a new girl came to my class. She was not the prettiest girl, but the way she act and the way she treat others (or me, in particular), I was totally drawn into her. We become friends- good friends. We spent many happy hours together- the short break, the long break and most of the free time we got at school. This goes on for more than a year till, unfortunately, I had to changed school in June the following year. There was no phone then, and we lost track of each other. Sometime in early 2012, our path crossed again, we reminisced our old childhood days- the days we spent together, so young and naive. Few months later, she told me she was already engaged. Now she has a son, her husband works in a bank, and she is still beautiful. She was beautiful, and she still is.
In Class VIII(2007?), there was an inter-school football match. I saw a girl from another school, and she was an angel. She was the prettiest girl I have ever seen in my life. I asked my friends if they know her name or who she was. Except her name, no one know who she was, or where she was from. They knew her name probably because they had asked around, and yes, they did, I find out later. Few weeks passed, I finally got to meet her, and two months later, we were in a relationship. There was no phone then (I was told I was still a kid then), and since we don't live nearly each other; we wrote letters, maybe a dozen of them. Three (Four?) months later, I found out she was cheating on me and our relationship ended. In 2013, I heard news she eloped with a friend of mine.
2008 was a leap year and I hope everyone know what could happened in a leap year (if you don't, go here). A junior from my school proposed me. I wasn't expecting such a turn in my love life. I mean, I was thinking to, maybe fall in love with a student from my class, that way it is more romantic or so I thought. This relationship lasted till the end of my high school life. We didn't actually broke up, but agreed to keep a break during my board exam. I never come back.
In the year 2011, in my Class XII, I turn 18. My parents thought I would do better in my board exam if I stayed in hostel, rather than with friends. So I was taken to a hostel in the school campus. There was a girls' hostel just next to mine, and in that hostel, there was a girl. She was 17. We had the best relationship. Since both of us were in hostel, we couldn't meet often. We met at odd hours, college hours, or during holidays. We exchanged countless gifts. Late night talks become regular. I don't really remember how this relationship came to an end. We haven't officially broke up yet, honestly. But I am single now.
Apart from these few whom I had been in relationship with, there are some more girls I proposed and had been in relationship, but none lasted for more than 2 months. Most of them are still good friends, and a few turn into enemy. I cannot help.
Valentine's Day is almost here, and I am single; the perfect situation to save one's pockets...haha
