One day I came across Urmil’s biodata. My first reaction was – a big no!! Reasons – He was an engineer (sorry to all the engineers reading this – I just never got along well with engineers and he wasn’t from Mumbai, although he works in Mumbai). We met for the first time in a café (let just say my reasons were not valid enough for me to reject him without meeting him) and there were no fireworks when I first saw him. I didn’t feel an instant connect (which would make me say that I have found the one). He hates coffee and I love coffee – this was the biggest turn off point for me. He was extremely quiet in the start but after 2 hours of us sharing our MBA stories, work stories and what not, I felt that we could be friends. I had no intend to impress him or even give us a shot. But who knew, that he was all set to impress me. I still remember the first time he said, ‘I love you’ to me. I couldn’t say it back but rather than being all upset at me, he just asked me to say those magical three words to him only when I mean it. He was the one whom my parents instantly liked, befriended my sister (apparently they are a team who is always against me) and who in very little time became a really good friend to me. He patiently waited for me and never forced me to like him back. I have always been practical with my life decisions. I soon realized that he is a decent guy, my family adores him, he understands me and more importantly he lets me be myself. What else does a girl want from a guy? A little space, a lot more understanding and a promise to love her forever with no demands or conditions. That’s when I agreed to get married to him. It was a love that took its own sweet time to bloom. We both knew that it was an arrange marriage but he never wanted us to treat it as one. That’s when he decided to set a proposal for me. Although he knew that I already agreed to marry him, he wanted me to live my version of love story. Those romantic candles, my favorite pastry, my favorite music and those balloons – It couldn’t have been any better. Who knew that I would actually find a love story in an arrange setup. We are totally different than each other yet adore each other’s flaws and quirks. He is basically a calmness over my storm, hot chocolate over my black coffee, introvert over my extrovert, movie over my books. He isn’t the one who shares a last pizza slice with me but makes sure to order a large size pizza of my choice. Who cares about the last slice when you have the option of selecting your choice of pizza. Its like he prefers too many slices of any damn pizza while I opt for limited slices of my favourite pizza. Afterall, I need to look good for my December wedding. Looking at these pictures, any millennial girl would wonder that I wish my boyfriend does the same for me one day. To all the girls reading this, trust me I would have wished for the same. Who knows? Tomorrow there would be someone who would make your dream of such proposals come true. Don't be too rigid to fall in love and have a bollywoodish love story, rather wait to get a perfect guy and create your own version of love story.
