The Pursuit of Happiness

Happiness, for me, existed in: food, movies and women. I have learnt cooking. And I am learning how to make movies. But how on earth do I create women?

See, let me elaborate. If the curry is spicy, I can understand it as my excessive usage of ginger paste while cooking it. If the movie sucks, I can understand it as my lack of spontaneity while directing it. But if a woman irritates me, how on this bloody earth can I understand why she is behaving so?

My pursuit towards this third possibility of happiness has been brilliantly confusing and moderately understandable. One woman detests me because I avoided looking at her. Another detests me even more, because I looked at her. One hates me because I haven't spoken to her. Another hates because I spoke to her. One irritates me because I wasn't nice to her. Another gets irritated because I was nice to her. Isn't this all confusing? I mean, given the smart-arse status that I bear across my face, the destiny of confusion is inevitable. Isn't it?

Anyway, along my pursuit, I realized that the very same women (above mentioned) love me for something that I got shocked on realizing. They all love me for two shocking reasons: one, that I am dumb; and two, that I am concerned about them hating, detesting and irritating me over the course of our respective relationships (I think, this gives them a high that I have high-regarded their apparent bullshitting on me).

Now, stop giggling, because the last para isn't true. It's all just in my imagination. Yah! A very dumb imagination. And that's where my pursuit mostly borders along to put my mind at peace. An imagination, that however hard women hate me, that probably is their way of loving me.

  1. Hi Dearie!! Oops...somebody is busy in research on Women. Lol. Just kidding. Well, What I believe is, there are different people on this earth. It doesn't matter to which gender they belong to, there are wide dissimilarities among them. I know, how frustrated & irritated one gets when you don't get attention from someone you like. But then this is how we learn & move ahead. What I've learnt those who recognize you the ay you're stays forever and those who cannot value you, how does it make a difference to our life?

    Just Chill...dude...as you say..you're a dreamer...she's gonna enter into your life soon:-)

    Wish you all the best

    Lots of love

  3. Well sir, Your pursuit of happiness is on things of different nature(Food, Movies, Women), You cook food, you like it or you dont like it but you still eat it. You make/watch movies, and you are the one who can give the feedback on that.

    You should never have had any problem with both of them , but when it comes to women, they have expression and i guess thats where we get the feedback about us. Now that we see our feedback is not going really positive, we may have to probably look back at our life where we were most successful with woman and how our attitude was on them. I guess, if we can follow the same, problem ends.

    P.S : It's easy to say than follow :)
