What made you recently say to yourself, “Wait. Really?”

Me : I'm around 17 & You? (Don't take me literally)

I was in an event in a management college of Gurgaon. I didn't knew the campus well. There was still some time left for the event to start. I was waiting for a speaker, who had invited me.

He : Yeah. Getting. I have also been here for years now. But I'm fed with Delhi. I have lived in Mangalore. My family is from Chandigarh. Madhya Pradesh you know.

He : I don't understand why it's so hot and humid today.

He : Okay. Fine. We can just watch a movie. Have some fun. What's your age?

I was feeling as if I was being flattered too much.

Me (smiling, hesitant but firm) : I don't think anything.

Me : Ok. Although, I don't feel age has anything to do with the understanding and experience of a person.

He : Btw, you're really pretty.

This is a real question: Why do a lot of men/boys hate (yes, hate) women that voice their criteria in choosing a partner? Even when the criteria is sane and responsible. Besides it being, sadly, an effective mating strategy, why does it exist?

By now, I have already understood what he's trying to do. Still, I waited. So, I told him a place nearby to my locality.

He : Yes, Monsoon month. What place do you stay in Delhi?

Me : No. I am a resident of some other state. I'm here in Delhi for studies.

Me : Thank you.

I was already blown that why being a 24 year old, he's being creepy with me.

Why do some women alter their faces by so-called cosmetic surgeries (on their eyes, cheeks, lips, chin, jaw) that making them look like Donald Duck or puffy aliens, while for most men these unnatural facial changes are ridiculous or even disgusting?

He : So, are you seeing someone?

He : If you're free anytime let's catch up. Have some drinks!

Then the friend whom he was with, he also went away to the canteen. Now, only this guy was there alone. Standing!

Me : Yes. I'm from Delhi University. Eco Major, 2nd year. Are you from this college?

I am still confused that which nice guy in the world, asks a girl to meet for a movie at the first-ever meet?

Me : Because it's month of August.

I just like staying by my own self, away from Dora–The Explorers. Genuine people are always welcome :)

He : Oh, great. I also live around. We stay very close. We can just catch up anytime.

Meanwhile, I was wondering from when did Chandigarh came in Madhya Pradesh? Maybe, I need to revisit geography of 10th standard again, or does he need it badly. Management, you know!

Even in movies, you won't find any guy reaching out to a girl and asking for movies, drinks and chill at the first meet. The female character would literally slap such a guy (in movies).

Me (a little confused) : I don't know

By now, he was at least sure that I'm not the kind of girl, he's looking for. With the excuse of a phone call, he moved towards the auditorium.

He : So, are you here just for the event? What college and course do you have?

Yeah, I can understand that you're exploring. You're another “Dora - The Explorer” from Delhi. So, you should also find girls who're just explorers like you. Keep playing DORA-DORA!

Me : Sure.

Let's be a little serious. Is there any “Student of the Year” movie going on here in Delhi/Gurgaon colleges?

He : Then let's have some coffee

I sat there on the bench for a while. There was a boy standing by my side. Seemed an official, but maybe a management graduate. Offcourse well dressed (Cream shirt and black pants), offcourse smart, with a good accent and Delhi attitude (too much slang).

He (smiling) : So, what do you think about me?

Me : I don't drink

Me : No

What’s the weirdest phone call you have ever received?

Me : I don't drink coffee also

I was alone there. Firstly, he came and kept his bag, and asked me that he's just coming. I said fine.

Let me tell you, this guy is already an MBA pass-out student and I'm just a Sophomore at my UG.

Me : No. I don't drink coffee, tea anything.

He : I'm 24.

He : Tea ?

He : Oh. You know, I also had Eco major. We both stay in South Delhi. We both are single. So much similiarities. And you're pretty also. What do you do on weekends?

He : Cool. No, I'm not from this college. I'm the PR coordinator for their event. Are you from Delhi only?
