Dear Ashok,

A more precise definition for an oxymoron is 'a figure of speech in which two words with opposing meanings are used together intentionally for effect' (Wikipedia).

Dear Dr Rajan

In fact i wanted originally to put it as a question to u as " U happily married doctor" but then i thought may be i will exceeding my limits a bit and restrained myself.

I'm sure u r happily married in the normal sense just as i am.

[rajanswain]

Dear Ashok,

Let me say that I am married and happy. Or that I am happy inspite of being married.

Marriage has its advantages but we men have to sacrifice our independence and varying amounts of our happiness to stay married. Still, it is a necessary evil, I suppose.

Dear Dr Rajan

I often hear men lament like this. I wonder why? But Women in general do not feel that they have lost their freedom after marriage.

Normally it is the independence that men talk abt. But u say that u had to sacrifice even happiness (varying amounts ofcourse). I'm perplexed.

I'm perplexed.

....So am I

To All Men [Married,in relationship or Single ]

Normally it is the independence that men talk abt.

Is it the (Supposed) loss of independence that you regret or is the perceived responsibility that you are supposed to shoulder that you regret

Dear Ms Uma

I think it's both.

Before marriage life is as follows

Go to movies with frns
Have drinks without limits
Go home late in the night
U have a peaceful sleep in the night without interference.(crying kids)
Wake up late in the morning (sundays still worse)
U can be even a chain smoker
Only attend frns marriages. Enjoy friend's plight ( other marriages are optional)
U don't run out of money at the end of the month.
U don't have to save despite having lot of money.
No need to cook... restaurants are plenty
Keep switching girl friends.
No restriction on dating.
No restriction in time spent on browsing. Sorry i'm stopping here. My wife has started yet again.

Good night.

After Marriage ;



YOU

STILL Go to movies with frns ,or for yakkety Yakk

Have drinks without limits - [May get reduced to occasions ...after all there is a big meeting tomorrow tsk,tsk ]

Go home late in the night - Still Continues [pplr reason given : work pressure ,Hah ]

U have a peaceful sleep in the night without interference.(crying kids) - [one can always have a peaceful sleep ,if one is a DINKY or with the help of pills ]

Wake up late in the morning (sundays still worse) - A common scenario ,very much seen in almost all the metro's ,percolating to towns too ...this too continues [Esp in DINKY household]

U can be even a chain smoker - with recent legislation's[I think not possible irrespective of one's marital Status ]

Only attend frns marriages. Enjoy friend's plight ( other marriages are optional) - The option changes if you are working ,[have to attend colleagues,sub,boss's wedding ,funeral,get-together,picnics..etc ..,etc]

U don't run out of money at the end of the month.- the status does not have to change even after marriage

U don't have to save despite having lot of money. - You still don't have to save ...the heart burn caused by the thoughts of paying the ITwallah's will automatically push you towards saving's

No need to cook... restaurants are plenty - Wife is there + restaurants are open to married men too

Keep switching girl friends. - Of course you can still switch your "DREAM GIRLS " ..we don't interfere

No restriction on dating. - Perish the thought ! we will never restrict your "Dating" provided your "Dates" are with us

No restriction in time spent on browsing. Sorry i'm stopping here. My wife has started yet again. - quite an intelligent wife ...who understands that moderation will preserve and save the earth ,make it livable for the coming gen [And you are COMPLAINING ...instead of building a pedestal for her]


My verdict ,

Changes in your life are majorly influenced by career/work ....women/Men comes a second [in relation to present generation ]

Dear Ashok ,


[And you are COMPLAINING ...instead of building a pedestal for her]

Dear Ms Uma

Ur post must be addressed to others and not to me.Sorry wrong address redirected to the sender.
I'm absolutely enjoying every second of my married life.Have no complaints.

[uma1576]

Dear Ashok ,


I am startled ! I can envision only one thing from this meek[for you] and rosy letter ....The beautiful,gentle and highly intelligent Mrs. Ashok must have been standing behind your back ,when you began to type this post ....

Dear Dr Rajan

Dear Ms Uma

Wrong address again. My earlier post to Dr Rajan wld clearly show that i do not subscribe to that general view.

Ur imagination was nice to read. Fortunately my wife is not a homemaker. She does'nt have the time for policing as imagined by you.
