I want to warn every single one of you who are reading this that the title of the post can be a little misconstrued and this is definitely not a deep meaningful article you would usually see in a magazine. I’m married for just about a year and I’m yet to learn more so this information can sound guileless. I have done my duty and have given you fair warning.
If nobody bothered to read about my “short” intro where I also mention my marriage to Bigshot here, but I decided to let my friends and fellow readers (is anybody still reading?) get an idea about it in detail. Maybe this piece of information can help you if you ever decide to get married and if you are already someone who is married and cannot relate to this, then I am screwed.
If you have no idea who Bigshot is, you can read about him here. Now let us start, shall we??
The most exciting thing about marrying a total stranger is that there are none. I’m being brutally honest with all of you. Who wants to marry a stranger? The guys we meet before marriage are almost always accompanied by parents from both the sides and sometimes even if we get some alone time to talk to each other, are you yourself? NO. Do you trust the guy? NO. Can you get to know the guy? Now I’m not even going to bother answering that. Then why the hell would someone be ready to marry a total stranger? Yes, because they are risk-takers, they are the adventure seekers, they believe in the good, they are the angels sent from heaven. If you know me at all, you know none of that befits my character, so you can say I was being dumb and I went from ‘Meh’ to ‘Whatever’ at that point. I did not give a flying poopies about it. If I think about it, during the entire marriage phase I was zoned out. Now the next question is, Should anybody be that naïve and stupid to take such an important decision of their life that lightly? No, children. You should definitely not do that. Was it a fluke that Bigshot turned out great for me? Yes!

But here are certain things you need to expect from a marriage.
- They are not a serial killer/killer: Make sure you get to the bottom of this, and most probably you will not get a confession out of them, but try anyway.
- They discloses/submits documents of a full body medical check-up: We can always be prepared to expect the unexpected and be alert. I’ll just stop talking.
- Both the parties should be either perfectly abnormal OR perfectly normal: This last one is of utmost importance and it should never be mixed up. Because believe it or not, there are perfect people in this world. And Donald Trump is the first one on that list.
Jokes aside, let’s move on to what we should NOT expect from a marriage.
- Do not expect your husband/wife to always make your life happening: What I am implying with the word happening is the fun, excitement, adventure and the attention that you share with your partner. There will be days when your life is over the top “happening” but there are also going to be normal regular days as well as some dark shady ones. Bigshot and I enjoy our times together going out and having fun and then there are days when his head is sucked into the monitor and I hear keyboard taps moving along with the codes. Then there are those dark days when it would look like a shower could help both of us, but we just decide to lie down and eavesdropping on our neighbor.
- Do not over-think arguments/disagreements: I am not proud of it, but there are days I have turned into a small little demon and tortured Bigshot. There are also days when Bigshot tried to make me pee my pants by turning into an ultimate hulk. Does that mean anything? Essatly!!
- Prepare to see the ugly side: Again we are not proud of it, but some weekends we don’t take a shower and the sight you see can be pretty over-whelming. My greasy hair will be tied up in a messy bun and I would most probably have a garlic stuck to the teeth. There will be under eye bags that even a pug can’t compete with and the zits on the face, oh my lourd! So if you can get a partner who does not care about it, I say you go for it.
- Be
ready(forced) to share: If you are like me who had a separate plate, mug, spoon and all the shenanigans of a spoilt brat, then marriage will liberate you. You no longer can say anything belongs to you alone. I am sure Bigshot has used my toothbrush and I was not happy that day. - Know when to shut-up: I am not going to explain this since it works differently for each individual. Mood swing runs in my blood and if I ask him to stop his sarcastic jokes for a day, I mean it. And when Bigshot is on the process of becoming the hulk, I throw a cookie at him and hide under the bed. It works like a charm.
- Be open to learn and change: Come on, we all are different, so it would be stupid to expect to like the same things, that’s annoying too if you think about it. I, for once might find documentaries on world war 2 boring, but you have to endure it and maybe learn a few things. I might not have the same enthusiasm like Bigshot to watch the missile launch of SpaceX, but you watch the whole damn thing anyway. That shows courage and boldness and I am proud of it.
- Try being patient: You are not going to like everything about the other person and vice-versa and hence patience is mandatory. Either you can coerce him and take a selfie with you, which according to him is a huge waste of time and energy. Or you can be patient. Bigshot hates it when I don’t let him watch T.V after getting ready to go out. I know.
- Learn to laugh at yourself: Cut the ego out and laugh at each other. Bigshot and I had our first ice-breaker moment after marriage when one of us farted, and to this day it continues.
SO with that sweet thought, I want to present to you SOME pictures as a proof regarding Bigshot’s love/hate relationship with a selfie:
P.S: He agreed for the selfie in the featured image because I told him it’s for my blog 🙂
