What??? U don't drink??
A friend threw a b'day party yesterday...i don't remember dancing this hard in the year or two..had a great time...and after all the girls left at around 1:30..we all guys again danced, the way guys dance, till 3 in the night. Then it was time for everyone to speak out about their present/past crushes and brushes:-)...was fun to hear everyone's stories...how some tried there level best, how some didn't have to try at all..and how some could never express themselves or dared to give it a try....all the confusions and confessions...
I almost instantly recalled my days, of sitting at a dhaba with my friends and talking, for the umpteenth time about a girl who never looked at any one of us :-)...all of us might be considered losers in that sense, but none of us ever had the desire to just have an affair or "ladki ghumaneka" so to speak...for all of us, it had to be/will be a once and for all story..i never remember hearing the flip side from any of my best friends..and same was the case with me. Yesterday, when it was my turn to speak, and I told ppl that the one girl, if there ever is one, that I go out with, would end up being my wife, I was branded/labelled/called Devdas/liar/lifeless. Not that it badly hurt me or something, but I really haven't learnt or want to learn how to live the way they want to live their life....
When I said that I don't drink, I was told that I shouldn't be shy. This pisses me off. One of the goals in my life is not be to shy of any of my actions. Such allegations aren't new though; it has happened before. Back in Louisiana when all my friends were drinking, a few girls came, and not seeing a beer can in my hand, actually told me that "it's OK if you drink in front of us...it won't give us a bad impression of you!!" Yeah, like all i want to do/have left to do in life is to impress you....I don't know whats wrong with people...if you are good..its said that you are pretending...and if you are bad...well, thats the standard anway...
Ever heard the old quote: "Neki kar, dariya mein dal..."

Perfectly bang-on about the impression part.
They talk as if we live our life for them
