Drama and I have an age
old association.
Usually blah these days,
while in conversation with a dear friend I crooned my eternal favourite drama
line “Nobody loves me” in my whining, attention reeking-seeking tone. And just like that he suggested putting
it up on my status to see who all do. And yes, just like that I did. Some 90
comments later, this is what I have concluded from it all:
1. Fine, a lot of people
commented though 1/3rd of this number was my own replies. A little drama never hurts anyone, but I don’t take
chances and go all the way. And three people actually “liked” the idea of me being
unloved-et tu Brutuses. Bah, Facebook has gone to the dogs I tell you!
2. There were comments
from:
A. My brother (My own khoon, calling
me crazy and attention seeker-meh!)
B. My mother (The epitome of naatak-giving
me a jhappad)
C. 2 Maasis (expressing less concern for
me and more for my G)
D. 3 Mami jis
E. 4 students
F. 3 sisters-in-law
G. 2 students’ mothers
H. Handful of cousins
Really people? This is NOT
THE love I was anticipating! I know hum saath saath hain, but family
planning will have to step down for my flirt planning to materialize. Waise, I
am blessed that none of them raised an eyebrow at such a distorted status-Nobody doubts me ;)
Charm runs in my family, it practically gallops and so does over-expressiveness
it seems. Control people, let others take the stage sometimes.
3. I realized that many of my Facebook friends’
favourite national pass time is calling me a ‘Nautanki’ and how generous I am
to provide them this fodder to graze on. Nobody
appreciates me should come next. Any references to donkeys is purely coincidental and unintentional.
5. Some great minds
sauntered in there and voiced how they empathised and whimpered that nobody loves
them either. Ahem, so I ended up doing the very arduous task of sharing the already
dim spotlight-boosting their sagging whatevers rather than focussing on my
needs! I am a rebirth of the Buddha it
seems-such selflessness is unheard of in Kalyug.
5. The targeted audience-THE
MEN, were conspicuous by their absence. Bloody hell! What a waste of well-chalked
out Naatak! I was hoping for some inbox messages at least to salvage my
sinking self-worth or MSA (Market Shelf-life Analysis) but the box was as empty
as my brain. *Sigh!*
6. More women dared to
openly address the issue of loving me. Yes, that is a nice way, Dear God of hinting
that since the men are anyway absent, I might try rethinking of my preferences-the Mayans were right, the end IS near.
7. I think I scared away
any remotely prospective “I love you” with my little stint. Sometimes things
pop in my head and jump feet first out of my mouth-I need to handle this OCD. Random
fact-Most women suffer from some form of OCDs-Obsessive
Caring/Cuddling/Cribbing/Crying/Cursing Disorder. Mine is Obsessive Cuteness Disorder
which more often than not, materializes and backfires into Chutiappa sometimes.
8. Not ready to give up,
my next status was:
Tough
choice-To buy a branded watch or a DSLR camera first, especially since I don’t
have money for either now. All those who
professed love for me yesterday on my status, now is the time to show. Even if
you contribute 10% each, I will feel very loved. Truly!
Only three helpless comments so far, mostly
suggesting that they love me but their hands are tied-as if I asked for their
kinky bedroom details.
So now, all love has vaporized.
Kitne matlabi duniya! *sniff, sniff*
Nobody loves me! *Now where are one of those crying icons when you need them?*

Hahaha The drama queen ! Ultimate ! Actually when I posted on twitter in general- that owning a DSLR doesnt mean that one has bcom a fotographer..its jealousy that makes people say that- and u replied that u were so jealous 'what 2 do anita' I thought you were mocking me and was thinking about that many times that day and the next day ! Even after I replied 2 on twitter for that, and you dint respond, I really thought something is wrong and I am sending out wrong signals :(
I dont know what happened Suruchi. You might have forgotten about that- then what a mighty drama queen am I?? sob !
Katti you did not mention me from a to h. And about ur DSLR comment I suddenly forgot to read or type so.....
hahaha and with this post Suruchi is back and how!!! I could picture your facial expressions when you must have written this post :-)
Suruchi,

@Jack,

@Jenny,
Amazingly yes, besides being unable to control my mouth, I can’t control my facial expressions or hands in emoting when I do.
Thanks for always being around :-)
@Biky,
Arre arre control Mann saab, I really didn’t expect anyone to say “yes”, so I have still not recovered from the shock of it to actually say something...

@Shreya,
That “P.S. I love you” made my day...so what you are not Gerald Butler:-)
Thank you so much.
@Purba,
Drama-shamaa is always worth it-if nothing else, it always leaves back a smile :-)
@Ria,
I am so glad to hear a woman calling me cute-I was almost wondering if people from my own gender would call me an attention hog:-)
Love you too.
@Choco Lover,
Awwww, thank you so much*hugs n love*:-)
@Sakshi,
Yes, ma’m. First one everywhere. I have never once doubted your love baby and that is the reason why I would be there to share it with you when you walk down the aisle to be joined with your loved one:-)
