The Bridal Optimism!

The social media is real time entertainment. Recently I found my friends sharing links about” which state boy’s tend NOT to be a perfect groom”  :O . Hilarious content, specially the one I read about Bengali guys! Eh I admit some of its albeit true and some highly spiced up. This left me wondering  about my newly found groom. Out of d million hiccups I was having regarding tying the knot this small thingy too got me thinking. Of course I didn’t sit down to do a SWOT analysis of marrying a NON- Bong guy! :P but yes you know the fairer sex thinks a lot. :P

So after brainstorming it boiled down to the following:
Pros: (being more than 100% optimistic): merits over a bong dulha!

1. Festivals: The more the merrier! Newer ones to be added to both of  our calendars!
Neat division of leaves - Durga Puja (DP) at my place n Diwali at his! Unlike for a bong groom where your dp days need to be shared between sasural n maika,or need to sacrificed overall.

2. Food: yup I get to explore wider varieties. Sindhi cuisine awaits me! Wont have to be bored of having macchi-bhaat everyday! PS: but I need my weekly dose of “Maach n Maangsho” :P

3. Language-I get to abuse him during fights using my fierce “bangla”- “ekdom nyaka chele” P. hope he doesn’t reply in sindhi to those. Well, this upper hand incentive  exists till the time he doesn’t understand all bangle words!

4.  Mamata didi-wont b our only/main topic of discussion! :p

5. Entertainment: Wider spread both in linguistic and rhythm. Dance no longer remains a taboo. From young to old  everyones a dancaholic on the new side at all occasions !! I never managed to bear punjabi songs earlier. I wonder now how i get those bhangra moves timed ! :D. So i get to enjoy the relaxed serene rabindra sangeet moments as well as the vivacious dhol beats and "Lare -lappa songs" to drop dead dancing.

6. Scientific Basis: Wider gene pool for the offsprings  :P  

7. & finally the Wedding function-2 styles. I get to wear variety of bridal attire  :D. Different bridal looks, more clothes, more fashion hence more SHOPPPING! :P
 etc etc.

Cons: Are you klidding!!  I shouldnt even be thinking of them at this stage unless i wannabe a runaway bride! :P & ofc the fact exists that "Love is blind"

Summing up i guess in totality it is a deal worthy to try out! ;) Keeping fingers crossed & let the journey begin! Amen ;)
