female..shopping..and me...

I always have certain assumptions which i take it as true and base my other beliefs on that.Sometimes very vehemently i support my assumptions without any proof or a rational explanation.One such assumption was i can beat most of the females in direct physical fight..atleast i have more stamina then the many other of these opposite-sex creatures around me..

Of course this was never tested until the d day was decided to be today.Did i won the game?? i don't know but iam certainly confused abt my assumption at this time of the day.

We had to go to shopping at 2:00 pm(since it was a cool day)..as is normal wit a guy,I was punctual and prompt.I was there to take her out by 1:50pm.I was pretty happy she was also almost ready to go.This "almost ready" it seems in their language means something else.I understood it only wen we actually went out at 4 'o clock.

Again following the rules of the game..which says though it is for a female's work u are going still it is male's duty to pay for most of the "miscellaneous" economic transactions.I as a follower of rules and being such a nice guy followed it.
We were there at the grand business complex by 5..started struggle for this male chavunistic pig.It was completely a female goods shop..so i had nothing much to try anything out.I had to see innumerable dresses all in a finite amount of time and decide wat was best for her..and why? and again why i have rejected everything else?..so my brain with its limited amount of grey matter ..couldn't process so many choices and soon it became an NP complete problem.Finally, i decide this maroon colour chuddidar with very good embroidery all over it. She almost accepted it.Now again this menacing "almost".She ordered for it ,the bill was prepared and the money paid..then she decided not to have that dress..since she did n't like it in the first place..again the same process repeated..until i had realised wat i should do?..i would generalise it and pass it on as a piece of wisdom to all of my marvellous clan..

"if a girl asks u to choose one thing out of many things..always choose more then one thing "

This worked wonders and she was compelled to make the final choice and in just 2 hrs we were able to buy 4 dresses for her.
I understand one thing ..wen women go out to shop ..they don't care whether it looks good on them or not ..but they are more worried abt somebody else having the best in the shop.So there anxious big eyes always sees for the most costliest or most gorgeous or most attractive offerings in the shop...esp the dresses those dummy dolls wear...

Here i would like to contrast with my way of choosing dresses..i make it a point to ask the salesperson " bhai saab!! Does this cloth require regular wash??..if not how many days it will take before it can stink??..Is ironing necessary?"..sometimes i get very lively responses ..many a times i get a who-is-this-moron look.Without any external "intellectual" inputs i choose my dress.
This is not the end of my ordeal..i had to select the best bindi packets out scores of such packets thrown at us,the best ear rings ..the cheap ones ..the costly ones,the best hair pins..the cheap ones ..the costly ones,the best hair clips..the cheap ones..the costly ones,the best nail polish color (here the constraint was only color and money had no role to play),even the best mehandi packet which was readymade..so i had to select the best paper in which this mehnadi was put in..

By this time after making so many "best" choices i was half-dead .As i become more tired ..the more she was getting enthu..and more i had to roam from this shop to that shop..just wen i was thinking now there is nothing more to buy..she took me to a kid's shop.Afterall,she is a very nice person so she promised to buy some clothes for her sister's sons who in reality don't need any.

My question always is " why do we need dresses for people who don't have any idea abt shame and nakedness ?"
My question not withstanding i had to make the choice again..they were all types for dresses for these junior race..spider man clothes,super man,bat man,our own shakti maan..i wonder wat acts of bravery are these tiny tots going to do under such dresses...in the end we settled for batman since it is the in-thing now.
We came out of that complex at 9..from 2 'o clock to 9 ..i haven't eaten anything and i was too tired to eat ...while she was so happy that i came around wit her.. she offered me a cool drink to drink,which i don't drink anyway..and ofcourse i paid for her drink.

ps:she is my cousin. while drinking it she was cribbing how she couldn't buy more...and asked me to come some other day for shopping.
