They wondered why...
She liked his looks, brilliance, jokes and charm.
He liked her personality, wit, smile and thoughts.
They loved each other's presence
They fell in love madly and married promptly
They wondered how they were made for each other
She needed coffee first thing in the morning, she was a south-indian
He will die without tea first thing, he was a north-indian.
He had his way, even plain milk tasted sweet that day !
She wondered why even plain milk tasted bitter that day !
He felt like visiting Birla mandir
She wanted to go to Siva-Vishnu Temple
She had her way, prayed that he gets to like coffee
He prayed, that he gets to go to Birla Mandir
They wondered when their prayers will be answered !
"Solution of one's problem lies with the other" ...
Answers, they apparently, never heard.

yay !!! first place !!!!!!!!!
good one machi... looks like your soul is troubled....;) if u know what i mean !
LOL! All fictious eh...but where did you draw the inspiration ! ;-P
The best part is your disclaimer "If you have not heard the answer till now, you will never !" .. thatz cool!
Arun,
Congrats on you being the first commenter - keep up the good work;)
souls that have not heard the answers - that we see everyday - are the ones that are troubled :-D
CB,
Atleast i have not seen all of it happening in one-person :) - A good artist, draws inspiration from bits & pieces everywhere to come up with his creation - Sorry, de-waugh sir - you are still not included ;)
Yes - was wondering how i shall provide a twist to the disclaimer ;) and lo - there it was ! :P
Good one Arvind.
"Solution of one's problem lies with the other" ...
Now that makes some real sense.
Thanks ML :-)
"Solution of one's problem lies with the other" - Thinking that is in my opinion the real problem.
The solution of one's problem lies within oneself. If we realize that...we are not dependent on another to solve our problem...
Disclaimer: I am no expert on this subject :D
CB,
"You are the problem" - is the most valid statement i've ever heard :P
The reason (partly) why chose, the 'other' as the solution here is because the parties involved are in a marriage !
This problem is more of a 'trick' problem - if you look at it carefully - they've compromised their preferences for their spouse, but still not lowered their expectations
From the perspective of the person who answers these question (read again, to know, who it is) the problem lies with everyone :-D
hmm
jathagathai eduka vendiya neram vandhachunnu nainakaren
OP,
Thanks
Ganesh,
Second time ??????????? I did not know you had such plans !

Shiva,
peN paavam polladhadhu - hope my post was not the reason, that Ganesh is taking up his jadhagam again :P

Arvind
Nice. One question. Are u married yet ? :-)
"She had her way, prayed that he gets to like coffee
He prayed, that he gets to go to Birla Mandir"
Cool lines. I guess married life is just a give and take in the best case or live and let live in the worst case :-)
samy,
nee endha vagai ?
Kasthuri,
Thanks. I failed to see the significance of the word 'yet' there :P
Well said - "I guess married life is just a give and take in the best case or live and let live in the worst case :-) "
Do you think 'live' will be an option or will it be only 'let-live' :-D ;)
arvind and shiva
Naan enpa en jathagathai edukannaum

Ganesh,
Very bad attempt at cover-up - 'Home ministry' oorlendhu innum varaliya :P ?
Slain Pa. Woman's Ex-Boyfriend Arrested
Police discovered the remains of a missing pregnant woman and quickly arrested the father of her unborn child Saturday, ending an exhaustive, monthlong search.
Hey, you have a great blog here! I'm definitely going to bookmark you!
I have a hot tubs site/blog. It pretty much covers
hot tubs related stuff.
Come and check it out if you get time :-)
Arvind, an upsurge of your creative juices very vividly witnessed. 'Really enjoyed this one! :)
Aishwarya,
Thanks :-)
Arvind,
Good one! It all comes down to "Expectations". If we let go of that (them), life is peace. Easily said ;-)
Munims,
Thanks :-)
Arvind, you have to factor in one more thing as far as women are concerned
(YOU CAN NEVER HOPE TO PLEASE THEM, regardless of your sacrificing nature). This is being played out countless times in many people's lives daily and that is why at least in our part of the world, men tend to become philosophical :-)
AP,
Nalla idea da ;)
Thennavan,
Indha madhiri vamba'na matter la ellam enna maati vittudadheengo :)
Good one. I guess they drank both coffee and tea everyday :)
Lavs,
Thanks
Yeah, you see the problem was that she had to make the morning drink - and she had to make tea everyday ;) - i guess this is what addiction can cause...stop drinking coffee/tea and starting drinking complan everyone :P
hey arvind, first time here..that was a good one!
"If you have not heard the answer till now, you will never !" ..LOL
Sowmya,
Welcome aboard - dig out the diamonds :p - i.e. more posts from the archives :-D
honestly, I didn't notice this earlier... well written piece on the love marriage.
but it is not only in love marriages, that these kind of issues come up. Even in arranged marriages, after those initial few days of honeymoon life, true colors (I mean preferences) come out... some people get adjusted easily.. some people pray as you had written.
I liked 'thennavan's piece of comment...
Ram,
If i remember correctly, you are the first person to have brought up the issue of 'love' marriage - and indeed that was what i was trying to address. Kudos !
And i can't agree more as to how it may happen in any relationship !
Regarding Thennavan's comments - many people (a.k.a men) liked it ;)
