Well you must have heard “Marriages are made in heaven”. Well there are many of us who love fixing there here on earth.. Yeah yeah I know its called Match making but what I am referring to is when people make desperate attempts to fix couples up. Well I have had some funny such incidents than make me laugh.
Attempt 1 :
Well I was happily hoping to enjoy a Saturday evening with my family and was on my way and my mobile rang and picked it up wondering who it was “Hello yes” husky voice from the other said “ Hi, This is Mahesh. Elina from your office gave me your number, is this a good time to talk to you”. I made a sacrci face and thought to myself oh no another office supplier I guess. This Elina couldn’t ask him to call me on Monday Grrr !
“ Yeah sure, what’s it about “ I curiously inquired” What came next was something that took me by a surprise. .. The voice continued “ Well Elina told me you were looking out for a potential partner and so was I so …I am sure she told you about me” I was like WHAAAAAAAAT”. Is she out of her mind ( Elina that is !!). Hesitantly replied “ Err Okay …Mahesh …just that Elina forgot to tell me about you …so let ,me catch up with her on Monday and we may talk after that”. As I hung up the phone how I wished I beat Elina up that very moment for distributing my number to total strangers without checking with me. Well I did meet Mahesh once and never ever felt like meeting him again …Well not all Match fixes click you see !! he he he he
Attempt 2 :
The other lot of people who don’t spare us any embarrassment is relatives. The moment they see an eligible girl or boy and they literally pounce at you were the freshest catch of in the marriage market ( Yeah its almost like a market where you are displayed and almost tried to lure a prospective). Well one such embarrassing match fixing moment happened when my aunt asked me to meet chat up with her to be daughter in laws Elder brother Rahul. Thankfully Rahul had not idea of the master plan of fixing us up. He was an nice Punju guy working in a related industry as mine. We hit it off quite well, as friends …
My family kept staring at us every time chatted …when suddenly after 2 days my aunt appeared and said …” errr there is something I have to say …well u and Rahul seem to have hit it off well but …errr I just heard he is engaged” I was giggled and told “ it’s ok we just hit it off as friends” My aunt wouldn’t give up and said … hey he has a younger brother too who is a double MBA. He is better than him too, why don’t you chat up with him” HUH!! Better than him , how consoling was that and now chat up with the younger brother, these match fixer aunts I tell u!” Well I did chat up with the younger brother and hit it off well with him too and have been friends since. So much for trying to fix us up !
Well these crazy match fixers across the across the globe made many funny and embarrassing attempts. Yet I am single, Happy and ready to mingle …I know some day I shall meet the one !
