Do you like your husbands friends and their wives?

The rules are always different for men and women. What would you say if a husband calls his wife now and then to enquire? Obviously he is smitten by his wife. What would you call a wife who calls her husband in the same fashion? Ofcourse a wife who bugs her husband.Not just husband and wife the rules are different even for the men and women in one sided love. It gets worse after marriage. Are you expected to hang out with the wives of your husbands friends while he is surely having fun with friends? Atleast for me its the most boring thing to do and I can see it on their faces as well.Yes we are courtious we do some small talk but we dont share any bond. You are lucky if you do find these women fun to hang out with else you will be punished all your life with such get togethers. Most men do have some common interest cricket, bikes, cars. But you cant say the same about women. The days are gone when women would sit and crib about their in laws or talk about cooking cleaning.And the biggest problem for me is none of these women seem to have a mind of their own, either they are such stereotypical women no wonder their husbands are just another set of hypocritical MCPs. What is more annoying is the friends I had before marriage have also started acting wierdly, dunno if they have assumed that I have become just another of those married women who cant talk anything more than husband house and in laws. It just looks like prejudice has become a common trait amongst everyone these days. It is tought but I am trying to get out of the habit of following my husbands footsteps literally. Trust me if he reads this he will be offended he will just term me as someone with big ego and thats why I cant be like other women. Truth is I hate the 'other women' who have made life hell for people like me.

Chasing Harry Winston

The most relaxing sight is the view from window seat when it is drizzling.It just transports me into a new world, takes away atleast temporarily all my insecurities and troubles.Was reading the book Chasing Harry Winston from past 1 week. Well its a v good book if you are in the mood for some lite and happy reading.But yes its a book for the ladies(as my BIL prefers to call, aunties), not for gals mind you :). It is for women in late 20s with the constant fear of approaching 30s v soon and not have achieved anything in life.Dont go by the title, its not abt someone chasing a rich eligible single guy Harry Winston.For most of us who dunno who are what harry winston is here is a brief intro - Harry Winston was a jeweller from the US of A. You can read more about him in the wikipedia ofcourse http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harry_Winston.
By the way i dont wanna tell the entire story before you get to read it . If you are someone who likes non fiction or fiction with some highly indecipherebale vocab pls give this a skip and dont offend our poor souls which still likes to dream there prob is a guy out thr holding out a harry winston diamond, sure we all like our men on knees dont we?Till few months back I was torn between friends who were married and those who werent.But now am glad almost all of the people I have being close to in past few years are now married and unsettled just like me.
Book has the feel of sex and the city and is based in NY (I know am prejudiced when it comes to that place). One character most of us, atleast most I know can relate to is the character of Leigh. I do miss the independence of living in an apt run on my own, book brings back lotta those memories.Takes you through the 1 yr in the lives of the 3 main characters of this book. Funny at times, lotta Dos and Donts listed in a relationship, but comes out in a fun sort of way.And if you are not in a relationship yet, well it still helps to read this book, you will also identify with some of the situations.So say cheers to all us ladies getting closer to 30 and still living with hope, read and njoi. Its value for money.
