Everyone in their lives would have had crushes, and me too had my share
of crushes. But, it didn't take much time for each of them to turn to
Crashes.
None of my crushes took off, or probably they crashed even before they took off !! Today, when I look back, I can’t manage but to have a laugh.
My first crush was on Miss L. I was in my tenth then. We happened to Speak only once. It was when I asked lend her chemistry text book because our chemistry was so bad. She refused to and the very next moment I grabbed it. I still cant forget the dumbstruck look on her face. A few days later, she started going around with one of my classmates. They used to go for wonderful evening walks, Miss L, my classmate and her Close GF . Unfortunately (fortunately for me), the affair didn't last too long. On one such romantic walk of theirs, my classmate got proposed by L’s GF.
Somehow I had to pass the exams that year, hoping to catch her years to come (she was among the rank probable).
I was in a boy’s only college for my 11th-12th. I got very friendly with Miss N in my Tuition class. It appeared to me that...yes...she is the girl. One day,Miss N came and sat next to me...close...really close.....my heart beats shot up. She said.. I want to tell you something....but please maintain it as a secret. I knew...this was it...yes....she went on...you know...X(another classmate of mine) proposed me......and I too like him...and I accepted. I am telling you coz you are like my brother.......WHAT THE HECK ? As if the first news wasn't bad enough, the second sounded suicidal. I looked at her with an artificial smil and said....Congrats S..S..Sis !!!
The next crush didn't take much time to happen. It was Miss L who walked in to class. I literally had my jaws hanging seeing her. We became good friends...but I never fancied my chances...given the Miss N experience.
She was my Biology project partner....while she did the project...I concentrated on her biology ! Just as the exams got over, and as I was mustering enough courage to tell her, her dad got transferred. She changed the city.
Next in engineering college, there was this hottie I met, in another Eng: college.
Boy....she was a babe...Miss J. She used to be with me in the tuition Lab .I prayed for some chemistry to happen between us. But I guess, she was much smarter than I was. Miss J realized that I used to mess up all my experiments coz I used to be
Looking at her and not the lab apparatus. I called her out for a lunch ALONE
on my b'day. She turned up with her whole bunch of friends. The girls kept giggling and I looked for a place where I could go and bang my head. I steered clear of her for the rest of my engineering days.
Moving on from here, it was a major success story. This time round, it took some time for things to crash....just a little longer.. a bit more than 2 years. Everything seemed like a fairy tale when the crash Factor took the better of me.
By this time, I was in my job and I decided to use the term "interest" Instead of crush. So, my interest grew in Miss R in office. I thought she was a very pretty lady. Thankfully, the growth of my interest Stopped very soon, the moment I learnt that she has started to stay with her long time Boyfriend, whom she introduced to me in a cinema style J. Only one thought came to my mind....The good ones are always
taken!!!
Ha ha ha.....thankfully.....I have grown out of all these......no more CRUSHES.....so no chances of CRASHES......
I live this way now.....hey...wait.....who is this girl???? !!!!!!!!!!!!
Failure is not when your Girl Friend leaves you, it's only when you don't try for her sister
