I have always wondered, what is Love? And what is it like to fall in Love? Is it the holding of hands and dancing around trees, like they show in our movies? Is it bunking college/ office and spending time with each other? Is it something else?

God gave me my answers recently. Yes I fell. Nothing happens like it is said in out Hindi filmy songs. I didn’t lose the interest in eating. I didn’t even become insomniac. But still the feeling is very different, very pure and very close to my heart. But still some questions remain unanswered and I have some new ones coming to my mind.

I just want to ask them who are reading through. Does it automatically gives the guy to put blame or show distrust on the girl when they “are in love”? Does the girl become wrong and insensitive if she tries to say that she has a brain of her own? Falling in love is actually a curse that is gift wrapped in sweet words and lots of hugs and kisses? I am not sure of all these, but I am afraid that the answer could be a “Yes” to all these questions of mine.

The fact that two people come closer and start knowing each other will bring out the negative aspects of them for sure (which all of us have. Nobody is born perfect.), but does that mean you get the rights to say that you’ve been cheated. And that the truth was not there before. Being in love is wonderful but only till you have the courage to take in the negatives of your partner as happily as you take in the positives.
