I'm gonna put an end to this discussion! There will be no more talk of weddings (mine or otherwise!) or bashing (apoorva or otherwise!)

Hmmm...What is written about the deception cases, applies to women as well [Referring to the last sentence.]

Addressing the previous comment by 'apoorva joshi': There is hope when IdeaSmith does marry somebody coz' of the aforementioned. [to be taken in lighter vein :-) ]

apoorva- our idea will make the stranger her intimate friend in a day! Nothing to fear on that score ;) Of course, provided she says YES!LOL!

apoo: understand the situation... i instigated you to write a woman bashing post... it isnt working... one because u dont have your lappie... second you dont like to post from office... so that post is put to rest for atleast some time now... till that time i would expect smithy to write a *bashing* post on apoo joshi... whats the harm in that... although i wont mind an iyer bashing post though... or better... how about bird bashing post?

Blokes: Easier said than done! And you think a love marriage does not carry parents "insurance coverage"? Now thats a bad thing to say about parents!

On a lighter note, why are u getting some poor stranger into trouble by having Idea marry him? :-D

*ok... I sense an Apoorva bashing post on the way*

u know idea- it is time u let ur parents arrange a nice marriage for u. the adventure involved in getting married to a stranger is great fun- totally unpredictable and it is protected with parents' insurance coverage. what have u got to lose? a teeny weeny bit of ego that u know better?!

Goshie there's some serious male bashing going on in here, we cud end up with one heck of a debate if I started countering accusations leveled in ur post. As for the love vs lust debate crude as it may sound all I can say when nyone is tuly in love lust is the last thing that enters the mind and anyone who has been in love will vouch for this. When u like someone genuinely the 'raging male harmones' arent what's making the decisions for u, it's ur heart.

Well anon...there is some relevance there. Only wish people would follow the first mandate and not just the second.

Looks like its time for an Apoorva-bashing post...considering the comments and threats I've been reading on his blog...

Simple rule to live by...
Don't be reckless with other people's hearts...
Don't put up with people who are reckless with yours..

(From the song: Wear Sunscreen)

The rule's simple.. but dat don mean its easy to follow...

hey idea, why does this have to sound so pessimistic... i fully agree that there are men like the ones you mentioned above... but i also know of men who do accept a woman's needs and have been receptive to women... dont always look at the darker side... you will always find something bad out there... and puhleeese, please dont tell me that the women ' who get in bed ' or ' fall victims ' to men are stupid enough to not understand what's going on... life out there is not as bad as you think it is... it just needs a change in perception to look at things...

the cynicism is what is so distressing also, increasingly i see females entering relationship with such low expectations ...which perhaps is not how it should be ..almost going to the other extreme of starry eyes-dom of the teenage years

Yup, i am one of em too i guess.

We now understand more than those two word commands!
umm.. those words you mentioned.. I think the bluish ones, we feel for everybody. Those..du-uh..reddish ones, we feel for you XXs. And, umm.. those greenish ones, may be in a future upgrade.

Shreyas — Sun, 14 Aug 2005 07:29:00 -0000

True, I agree with what you say. Just curious though about the last paragraph - what do weddings have to do with hope about love ?? Or was the hope about something else ?
