He looked at her fondly as he leaned forward and tied the mangalsutra around her neck. Such a charming, loving and lovely partner. She would fit right into his family. He beamed proudly at his fine choice of a girl. She smiled back.

  4. Wicked! Loved it!

    But its true. The ones that look most docile and traditional, the ones who are trained to be wives all their lives are the ones who do what they want as they want. The goal of their lives is hooking a husband and once that is done, they are prepared for every in-law situation and husband situation. The husband and the inlaws are shocked but not as much as the second case in which the wife is shocked.
    The ones that don't fit the stereotype, who wear shorts and speak their minds...the ones that do not hide their thinking before marriage...they are the ones to get shocked even though there was no fine print in their personality. Because suddenly the whole world thinks its their responsibility to teach them what marriage is all about :-)

What do you do with the leftover milk in your cereal bowl once the cereal is finished?

If you had a top that was too short to cover both - your cleavage and your midriff - what would you do?
