About Guys and Shopping...
On second thoughts, I could have as well titled this as About Northpole and Southpole.
Check out this conversation between him and her:
Day: Monday
Her: Whatz the plan for sunday?
Him: Nothing much
Her: Can we go get the wedding ring?
Him: What???? (if it had been slightly louder, we could have well termed it a scream)
Her: I thought we were gonna get engaged shortly...like in a month
Him: Yes, but what for that?
Her: We need to get a ring
Him: But why should we get a ring
Her: It is just tradition to get something for the guy
Him: But should I come for that?
Her: Yes. The ring is for you
Him: I dont wear jewellery. I am not a ringy guy (now, that was the first time she heard that one)
Her: It is a simple ring.Nothing will happen to you if you wear it.
Him: But why all this? I will wear it for max two days...no i mean max two hours
Her: It is ok. But still we should get.
Him: U said sunday rite, why talk about it now. Lets see when sunday comes.
Day: Sunday
Her: So, we are going today rite?
Him: I am doing this only for you
Her: Thatz very nice of u..now we need to get a shirt and pant
Him: What??? (this time it is really a scream)
Her: Did i say something scary?
HIm: You think I dont have enough shirts?
Her: It is just tradition
Him: Hmm..You first said ring and now you say shirt...what else?
Her: That is all
Him: OK. But one condition. We will go to just one shop and get something in half an hour.
Her: OK. I have to like that. U have to like that. If that happens, then we will get.
Him: Half an hour. One shop
Scene: Shop 1
Her: Do you like plain or with stones?
Him: silence
She starts checking out a few rings. He is just staring
Her: Why dont you see some rings instead of just staring
Him: Ya ya. I am doing that.
Her: How about this?
Him: silence
Her: Why dont you check the size?
Him: OK
Her: How about this?
HIm: silence
Her: Put this on.
He puts it on.
Him: Do we have to get it only with stones...something plain?
(wow! he has opinions too)
Her: How about this?
He wears it. But no comments
She shows something totally rediculous.
Him: We cant discard that.
(Not bad. he is not blind and he is thinking, following whatz happening and listening!!!)
Her: How about this?
Him: Yeah. This is fine.
Her: It is just OK.Why dont you put this on and show it to me?
He has it for less and 5 secs. She has to make the decision within 5 secs
Her: Can we go and check in someother shop?
Him: Everything will be same. What is wrong with this?
Her: How will we know without seeing? This is just OK..nothing great
Him: silence
Her: Only one more shop. If we dont find anything good, we will come back and get this.
Him: When I wear the ring, I feel as if some external object is on my hand.
Her: But you are OK to have my hand on yours! (wrong time for a romantic statement)
Him: silence
Scene: Shop 2
Tries out a few rings
Her: This is good
Him: This is it. This is nice and we will get this. End of story.
Next they go to get the shirt...let me not even start writing about that.
Him: There was an india-west indies match and still I came with you. Just for you. Do you realize what a big thing that is??
Her: Next week I am thinking of getting wedding saris, can you come along.
HIm: I will be there...morally with you
So much for something, that happens once in a lifetime
