Falling in love is tough. And to get
loved back is even tougher.
Bollywood taught us that the hero and
heroine always fall in love. Boy meets the girl, falls in love,
persuades her, and finally succeeds in getting a positive nod. Now,
they sing and dance on streets and hill top for no reason. The only
thing left is approval from parents for a happy married life. After
some initial resentment, even the parent give the approval. Not to
forget, the friends of both the party play a vital role in achieving
this feat. They provide all the necessary help.
Life seems so easy and beautiful.
There is no better feeling the world
than to fall in love.
Pause.
My piece of advice. Beware! The above
stunts are performed by professionals. Please do not try this at
school or college.
Real life is different. You consider
yourself the hero and the girl you love as the heroine. You fall in
love. Remember, its still you who have fallen and not the girl. You
always act good to her. You try to maintain a good image in front of
her. All that is done for one reason – the day you say your
feelings aloud to her, she shouldn't refuse.
But there is a catch.
If she seemed beautiful to you, same
was seen by your friends as well. Since this is not a movie, you just
got competitors. So, more heroes for a single heroine. On an average
the ratio seen is 1:5. So, five heroes trying their luck hard to
catch one heroine. Each trying their way out to impress her. One good
at academics helps her out in all projects. Other good at conversing,
calls her up daily to be in touch. Other one bickers with her all the
time to gather her attention. Not to forget, extra-curricular
activities like singing, playing cricket etc can be of added benefit
to you. All try to act as good friends to her with the real
intentions, unmentioned.
So, as compared to movies where the
probability of being loved back was almost one, it drops to one-fifth in
real life. Eighty percent less chance. Even mathematics gives you the idea of how tough it is!
