Ek Chhoti Si Love Story

I guess everyone has their own love story, or atleast a story about love, even if it's one about a-love-that-never-was, or why-there's-no-love-in-my-life!!!:P

But the story is always there...

Arey nahi, I'm not gonna narrate my own tale of tragedy or happiness here...I hardly have time to speak that much..:P
Just kiddin...

I was actually thinking a bit(what's new? :P) and just looking around myself I found more love stories per person than the number of people around;)

Teenache, did u say? Perhaps....
Despo-panti too. Accepted.
Attempts. From subtle to silent to outrageously desperate
Heartbreaks too, as well as loads of confusion.
Everyone has a muse, an inspiration, a dream, a desire, a him or a her. Visible or invisible.

And then there are the luckier ones...who have found their partners, atleast think they have.
The beautiful couples.

But this post is about this unique twosome, both of whom are my friends, and both share a lovely love story, though they are unaware about it themselves. And I can't decide what to do.:P
Because both Ms. A and Mr. B are pretty good friends of mine, and treat me as a confidante. So I know that both of them have very strong feelings for each other, developed absolutely seperately, and without ANY knowledge about the other's feelings.
No, absolutely no clue. DESPITE me being a crucial common link.
(See I'm good at this. I never leak things. You can always trust me with your deepest secrets. Seriously!!:D)

It all developed independently, and the simultaneity of it as well as matching intensities are only two aspects that make this story different! Even I got to know seperately, and almost by chance. Considering that in B's case, I'm the ONLY one who knows.
Now I'm stuck in a unique difficulty, because I am bound by promise I'd nvr utter a word, especially especially to the crucial other half of the couple, to BOTH of them. And I can''t break that. Besides, any suggestions to "Why don't you tell him/her?" are always rejected, and I get a scolding.:(
They're both too scared.
Even an occassional indirect hint as to "He/she likes you too" is not treated seriously at all, is included in my "consoling" and is actually dismissed.
What makes the problem worse are two factors:
  • They are both EQUALLY good friends of mine. So cant take sides with one.
  • They both love each other soooooo intensely(I know this) that it pains me to just watch everything silently and leave it on time/destiny. It even sounds stupid. But because nobody else even knows, it makes it difficult for me.
I had never realised being introvertish could be so problematic at times.
I'm in a dilemma. What should I do?

Hhaha!

what an awesome dilemma!

tell both of them to write secret blogs and somehow addresses transfer kar de.

Anonymous said...

perhaps somehow get ms.A and mr.B to check out this particular post...

thanks for the comments...

and atb for the majors!

atb=all the best :)

Ask Ms. A to join you for lunch at some place. Same message... same place... same time to Mr. B. Then don't show up! They will know.. trust me on this one.... they will know what you did. So you didn't break your promise, for you said nothing... and you got out of the situation.

Just out of curiosity... does either of them belong to blogger's community?

//They both love each other soooooo intensely...
I wonder ..have they mutually professed yet?

the "oh common" in last comment is because you are so stubborn.. you can definitely get them where you want... or is one of them more stubborn than you?

@Voice
I dont intend to play God, but I've to do smthng here.....

@Prad
Yes u know me right..I'm VERY stubborn.
This union is gonna happen...though lunch is a slightly diff option practically..none of them wd come to meet me alone at any place for lunch...they have to be accompanied by me or by a grp.
But i have to work this out.
Nobody, eventually, can b more stubborn than me:P

@Andy
Yes. Only that this isnt fiction.
And I hope it doesnt turn out to be that sad.

Anonymous said...

Phoenix I believe being an introvert is not related to at least "confessions" of love. Introverts aren't 'scared' of anyone else's reactions, merely that they find it either not necessary, or inappropriate to talk about things personal to them to others.

But in cases like these, they have as much inhibition as any other person.

Anonymous said...

Ask both of them to read this blog :)

Pehli chiz,you call yourself a good confidante,I mean forget leaking it to a couple of friends of yours,you are leaking it to the entire Kiddo fan club,so atleast a dozen if them[assuming they were able to connect the dots]are laughing their arses off.PErhaps the guy would be so harried for his total naivity that any hope of him finally professing his feelings would be a lost dream[main to aise case mein bechare ko rulaya bina nahi chodta,masti aa jati life ki:))],and well as for solution,let nature take its own course.IF they are destined to meet then "DHARTI KAANPEGI ASMAAN PHATEGA BHUCHAL AAYEGA, USKE HAATH MEIN EK LAAL GULAB HOGA AUR DO ROOON KA MILAN HO JAAYEGA",else well its always fun to watch all this on sitcoms,must be even more amusing in real life.

I think u r just being silly and stuborn in sticking to ur i am a good confidante. Sometimes for the greater good it is nice to give up certain principles. If i were u i would have asked both to meet me at some place and and go there and tell them both at the same and end the matter.

well its a hard situation .... u will have to put tht trust thing on stake. The simple thing is tht even if u utter it out to the other person .... both wud end up being together .. and thus the secrets leaked jst to get them togethr. i mean its hard though.

see ur riskin ur friends trust .. but for his sake only na .. if he/she r gud friends they will realise tht its all done for their gud.

and see keep counting on this trust & u see them apart though u knw they love each other so much .. so HOW CAN U SEE THIS HAPPENIN !!

the decision is urs ;) .... think KIDDO .. best of luk :)

and hey if both read this blog .. they can get a fair idea too .... so makin them read this is the easiest & best thing .

hey I didnt mean it that way. See if they hadnt ben such introverts, they wd have told atlst more ppl. and then, it''d have been easir for me...
they just kep too much to themselves,a nd they''r so good at not letting it show that they cant understand each others'' feelings.
which is smthng i really dont understand.
because once u r in love, irrespective of the other person, u naturally undrstand EVERYTHING abt him/her.
always.
huh.

@Ritesh
They dont do that na...infact thats why i wrote this here.

@vertigo
1. arey there''s nothing like a kiddo fan club in first place.
2. secondly, nthn in this post givs any clue as to who A and B are, out of my sea of frnds.
3. infact event they cant tell for sure it''s they i''m talkin abt if they read this. so nobody is laughing.
4. aap use rulate. u r cruel!!
5. cmon i cANNOT leave things on destiny..
ah i''m just waitin for these exams to get over.

@tera deewana...
huh!
arey aap hain kaun.
tareef k liye shukriya magar, itni 'mast cheez' to nahi hoon main.
waise apki commnt ka context bhi samajh nahi aya!

@Pee-tah
Hey thanx for droppin by here ear..
such long time:)
yes ur comment is right.
i have to give up silnce for once.
this post was step one in that direction. i''m just waitin for the right time and way.
the problm is my dear A..she al;mois runs away at the very sight of him, she just cant control herself.
but i think i know wat to do now
thanx.

"because once u r in love, irrespective of the other person, u naturally undrstand EVERYTHING abt him/her."

How is it possible? Just being in love with her/him can tell you everything about a person? I don't think so. A gradual understanding seems more likely.

You first fall in love with someone, and then you start liking or disliking the person.

ahem....i am pretty bad at this too,so,i can understand ur dilemma,God help u face it.

You're mistaking the definition of true love here...
i dont mean i know everything wat true love is, but i can tell u this much for sure...that once u love somebody, and i mean really really love the person...it doesnt take much to understand him/her totally, with ur full heart.
U can read the other persons mind.
not EVERYTHING ever has yto be said. and conversations stop only for the lack of need for words.

Gosh..am i gettin too poetic here,.
sorry, i'm digressing.
ok, maybe it doesnt happen with eveyrone, i dont know. i know only wat i know.
but in this case, or any case, when u love someone, u surely get to understand the other persons thoughts quickly, because we are talkin of love, and not infatuation with the looks.

Thanx:)

"but i'd not rather be rigid."

First of all, I want to comment on this. You know, I understand you don't like false praise at all, but this isn't false. Moreover, I believe everyone should be well aware of their strengths. So let me tell you, this is one of your good points - you aren't stubborn with your thoughts. I think that is part of the reason why there is so much discussion at your blog.

Anyway, I think I am ill-equipped because I do not know what true love is. But I doubt if anyone does. You are right, there is certainly something known as chemistry, but I still feel, you cannot completely read the other person's mind. Sometimes, love is there without physical presence, as in case when people contact only via phones, letters and all for the most part. And words are, I feel, a rather inefficient way to communicate - problems of mis-representation and mis-interpretation.

O.k. I agree you can make sense of every thought of the person, but reading those thoughts beforehand is what I think isn't always possible.

True Love might be subjective, I am not sure. Love comes in many types.

Anonymous said...

Thank you.
I know you meant it, I can make that out, and thus this is a heartfelt thanx...
It's a good feeling to believe I'm not overtly stubborn about notions and ideas.
:)

I never said that one can COMPLETELY read anybody's mind. O cmon, do you ever completely and correctly know even what is going on within YOU own mind?
Nobody can, and thus this complete ness is always unreachable.

We are always unpredicatble in some measure, both to ourselves, and to others. Whether More or less to the latter is subjective.
Love can even exist without any communication, as in no fones,mails, letters or any direct contact. Trust me.
Yes, it's tough. but it can.
Depends.


But eventually wat u say in the end sums it up. True love is indeed subjecive, though while on the subject I'm reminded of a very good post here

Yes, I agree. You needn't sound so persuasive. You said it can exist. I know it does exist. And I daresay, it's not that tough. It is just scary, and if one can overcome those insecurities, it is rather joyous. But, rare.

Anonymous said...

@The Anon
Love is always joyous given that its true love which is so bloody rare by itself that the distant sort of love you talk about is just negligible. Its rare * rare. Nevertheless not zero. And ya, its scary and tough too!

@Feenix
True love kya, everything is subjective.

Mani bhai, tum kaafi interesting ho yaar. Tumhari jyadatar replies dil khush karne wali hoti hain. Your blog too. Par kabhi kabhi uchhal bhi dete ho. Chalo, koi baat nahin.

But yaar, one thing, I do not think only "true love" is joyous. Although for me it would be unwise to indulge in anything less than that, because for me AOE is far far better than any girl's false smiles. Chehra to do teen din mein puraana ho jata hai, aur adaaein bhi, isliye agar substance ho tabhee paas jao. Warna AOE.

Sweetie,
What you can do is, organize a small party for all your good friends and play a "Fish-Pond"kind of game.
Having done that, you can play the cupid, write a chit for each one of them and write some wonderful one liners. Dont put any names in there and watch their reaction. More than often, they would look at the first person they think might have written that. It works. Been there, done that.Try it out dear..

Naheen yaar, dil mat tod mera, AOE purana nahin hoga. chal ek baat bata, is duniya mein shuru se ab tak wars khatam huin hain kya? Har ghadi kaheen na kaheen war chal rahi hoti hai. To AOE kaise purana ho jayega, I mean purana ho jayega but it'll not lose its charm. AOE to ek nasha hai, aur aisa jaam to jitni purani sharaab ka ho, utna behtar hota hai.

And when did I say love is a farce? O.k. maybe I gave that impression, but indeed it is the most beautiful feeling in this world. (I do not have any reservations in using superlatives for love). O.k. I said it isn't magic, but not to lower its status, it indeed is kind of supernatural, but I meant to say that it doesn't give one any magical powers, in the usual sense of the word 'magic'.

And Mani bhai, indeed love ki baat kuch aur hi hoti hai.
