Women show their love for their men in different ways. They set up their homes, accept their families, give them children, buy them things and put up with the snoring. But me, I have done all this and more.
It's ten thirty at night. Adi is fast asleep. I am wide awake. M is in Hyderabad.
And I am not watching House, honouring the pact that we had to watch it together. Yes, other people have pacts to live and die together, we have pacts to watch nerdy shows. Can you imagine the frustration? My hand is itching to get to the remote and press play.
No, I resist.
Tonight, he must really know how much he matters to me.
And for the time being, we have established that it is M over Greg.
Only for the time being though.
Have you done any crazy things for love?

Nope - never sacrificed so much for love :p
for love of woman qualifies?;) Grin.
I just gave up the only leftover slice of mango. MANGO. right now. 20 minutes back. And the man gulped it down without even once acknowledging my sacrifice. sob!
lol. I soooo get you. We have a pact too to watch house together. And big bang theory (ahev you watched it? its hilarious) and how I met my mother (hilarious too) And my hands have itched thusly too! I hope M realises what a sacrifice this is :)
Supreme sacrifice - I gave up eating meat for him !! Am I not worthy of "Best pativrata naari" award for life !
Well, to be honest, I eat chicken and fish when he is not around but still I am vegetarian with him!!
Moved cities to finally end up here. Moved in with his parents and brother's family.
'Nuff said. More than.
Do not have any scruples about breaking the pact.
In Gregory House's words -"Everybody Lies!"

You mean other than breaking into a wild John Travolta-inspired dance amidst ten thousand busy shoppers on a crowded pavement just because you feel so good all of a sudden?
And also other than stopping to loudly squawk into the curious eyes of a parrot just because you feel like it?
Naah, not really. Intend to soon, though.
Yet to fall in Love. But yes, it is beautiful.
We have a pact too - from Heroes to SATC to Apprentice ;all sorts of crappy,chick-ish, macho-ish, funny, sad shows- all seasons ordered over netflix.The one who picks up the mail,walks all around the home like an addict, fingers itching to play the disc-waiting for the other to come over. Breaking this pact can be grounds for divorce . Our year is divided into seasons 1,2 etc and phases of screaming out dialogues/phrases and asking the other which season it was and who said it etc.In the last few years, our character, IQ and personality development is primarily through these shows.
This is the strongest proof of louu ever, I tell ya.
And for a person who at one point of time could go sleepless even with the noise of the creaky ceiling fan, sharing a bed with the hubby who snores every night like a generator switched on in the PM -AND learning to sleep soundly with it, THIS is the purest form of louuuuuu.
(sniff sniff) - the humble me :)
Hahahaha. So '13' actually commented on your post? :D
Niiice.
You have characters from the show coming and commenting on your page. How much cooler can you POSSIBLY get?
p.s. @13 - Are you or are you not going to die at the end of this season? Come on. Answer me.
During management trainee days, him in rural MP me in rural Bengal...solemn pact to watch "dark knight" together. 15 months+, neither one of us have watched it yet DESPITE all the reviews,fawning and the oscars.

eve's lungs...Hehe!
adhoorikalpana...Yes, it does. Spill!
Mumbai Diva...We are all such sacrificial lambs, what?
DotThoughts...How I met your mother is playing on Star World but I have never caught on. Will check the others.
Sonia...Well, I am a vegetarian too so I think it's a great choice!
Mamma mia! Me a mamma?...Let us move this to mail?

abha
*sniff* You inspire me Parul ;) *runs off to raise a statue for Parul right beside the statue of liberty and ofcourse that wil be the tallest now*
i stopped telling his extremely funny but equally embarrassing stories to my family.i really want to but he forbade me.so here is a sacrifice.
I have the same pact with my hubby, J, for Everybody Loves Raymond. It's our every night relaxer before we hit the bed. I lurve american sitcoms.
ohh where do I begin?? I used to waitress and bartend as a grad student,after my feet killing 10 hour shifts,I would shower and rush to go meet him! It helped that he always had a drink,dinner and DVD movie waiting for us to watch,but still.....:)
House is beautiful.
Just call me 'A'...You are a true nurturer!
Mama - Mia...And does he travel a lot?
Revs...Absolutely!
beyond...Gosh, that's the gold medal in my opinion!
Arshi...I used to watch Raymond, not anymore though.
Vidya...That's so romantic!
hack...Agree.
I got "no gifts please" printed on MY wedding cards because his side of the family has this no gifts policy. And I love gifts, and since I was a little girl I have been dreaming of getting loads of gifts at my wedding.
Ofcourse, the first circle gave me gifts anyways which I more than happily accepted.
cooking meat.
having tea instead of coffee...its simpler for him mornings to make tea for us as im not a fan of instant coffee
married him!
our pacts generally have to do with staying out of each other's way...works for me :D
Not telling anyone who knows her, that i love her and she loves me...so when we are in public together, keeping my hands and eyes off her so no one can see we are in love(she looks gorgeous when she dresses up!). She does the same, coz she knows her eyes will betray her..sigh. "unconventional love" sucks at such times! I wish i could shout it to the world..she has forbidden me to!I succumb.
I guess I began to blog for her. :P
It did feel crazy at that time, but I guess it wont count much as a sacrifice..
yes,
watched cricket with him.
Aww, so sweet.
Me, nothing much, but moved across oceans to be with him :)
Hey, btw, when/where does House air?
