Of relationships and egos

What is the first thing that pops up when you think about relationships?
Some might think about a romantic getaway and cuddling in a hillstation with fog over the lake.
Some others might think about a passionate rendezvous or sly encounter with the other gender.
A few others might venture into sibling rivalry or parental zone.

Whatever the case maybe the lines from U me aur hum come to my mind.

Pyaar nibhta tab hai jab hum yeh jaan le ki hum jise chahte hain use kya acha lagta hai (Ok I admit it I have modified it, my blog my interpretation)

It is a simple line but think about it instead of rushing through the lines in the blog, trying to find the punch line. Now you may notice that U is capitalized in the line above.

Changing tracks why is it that the start of a relationship is emphasized so much. I am thinking more in lines of boyfriend girlfriend type relationship. Why is it that movies delve so much in the first part of the relationship when the ship has to sail the rest of the life? It is definitely something to do with chaos theory wherein the initial conditions can change the end results so much. (OK maybe I went too far with the science bit)

Why is the first meeting and excitement so critical? Granted there needs to be excitement somewhere in the life journey. Why is it that very few movies are made for the happily ever after part? Actually is there a happily ever after part?

The transient parts are so over emphasized that the steady state is forgotten. Why is it the the hero never falls for the not so beautiful girl? Personality is not just a big word, it is the day to day everyday part of life.


I will leave this blog at that
