What would He want to change about Me?

Suj,

Resign from immediate effect from your self appointed post of Task Manager. I’ll repair the TV/computer/all other machines/ pay the utilities & do other necessary stuff around the house. But I’ll do it depending on my MOOD & not on the urgency of the task at hand. This “late latheef” attitude always gets us into bigger troubles & unnecessary headaches. I agree. But well, even so, I’ve decided. My mood will decide what has to be done when!


Yes, sometimes, a quick 5 minute fag session with a pal can actually run into an hour. Don’t call & ask every 15 minutes, "What happened?” Or “Where are you? What are you doing?" Just as you wouldn't want me to call you up when you’re in the parlor, I don’t want you to call me when I’m with very important people (VIP) doing very important things (VIT). If it helps, recall, how once you marched off to the salon saying, "Oh, just 10 minutes work. Only eyebrows" and didn't reappear till an hour or 2 later. Also, can't a man go out without his wife giving him a list of home provisions to procure? When I go to get cigarettes, you say, "Can you get coriander leaves? Please!” When I go to get beer, you say, "Can you get bay leaves? Please!" This running errands thing - not happening!

When there is a match, you can't stand in front of the TV & ask inane questions like, "Sattu, did you pay the electricity bill?” This is not the time for you to ‘remind’ me that last month I had totally forgotten to pay it & they had cut off the connection!! You can't assign utterly useless & wrongly timed tasks like, "Oh, the tomatoes are over, I can't make the curry. Can you get ¼ kg tomatoes?" And when I say, "No", you can't go into an explanation overdrive saying, "But you can take the bike & come back in 2 seconds (2 seconds!! Yeah right!!) I’ll have to walk!" You are forbidden from these acts henceforth. And no, don't look at me like that. We are NOT going to 'reconsider' this matter.

At the dining table, when I exclaim, ‘Masha Allah’ it means the food tastes amazing, pure delight. This you know already. Now please understand that I can't say it every single day or for every single meal. So you can’t go, "How's it?" on me every time, everyday. Interpret my silences better. Ok, let me help you. See, when I’m eating it silently, it means one of 3 things:

1. The food is tasty enough but I’m not in a mood to write a poem on it.

2. I am SO hungry that no matter how it is, I’ll polish off the whole plate. Or I’m too busy Eating to heap praises. So don’t peer into my eyes. Or stare at my plate to see how fast or how slowly the food is disappearing from it. The food is good & I just want to eat it silently without a performance appraisal.

3. I really have no choice but to eat it, right? So I am eating it.
Get the codes?

Getting me the towel after my shower is not a crime. My mother did it. So can you. No, I do not want to hear your on-the-spot, oral presentation on your imaginary doctoral thesis titled "Social Conditioning of Indian Men over the Centuries & the Battle of the Towel" I’ll not take my towel when I go to shower. I want you to bring it to me. Period!
During our fortnightly/monthly/yearly major fights, you must keep your volume LOW. We are fighting, not competing for the prize of ‘Who is the loudest”.
Ok, now onto one of your pet peeves: discussing things! No, we can’t talk shop when

I'm IN office

I've just returned FROM office

I'm HAVING dinne

I'm ABOUT TO go to bed

No, we can’t do so on weekends, not on public holidays either. Then when do we talk? You ask. Good question. My answer: We have been married for 7 years now. Figure that out yourself. But hey no matter what you arrive at, basically here's the deal: we can do so when I want to which is generally – "Tomorrow"!

  11. So u finally did it. I see that this post was more difficult to write than previous one. It was a beautifully crafted and seems to be a common list by many husbands. I should make my wife read it. Nice post. Keep the flow coming.....

    1. you are right Gopinath this post was more difficult because i had to bash myself up publicly, had to list out all his grouses and be true to it without changing or altering it

  24. Some more things that he might to add

    a)Whatever i say or do in our last fight should not be hold against me in any future arguments..come on yaar for how many times will i loose a fight for something i did years back :-(

    b)Once a mandatory period of 7 year passes{7 year itch} iam not obliged to say "I LOVE U" or similar good-goodies..I do love u but now exempted from mandatory expression of the same

    C)I must be allowed atleast 3 per year birthday/anniversaries/important dates to be forgotten

    d)India loosing a match is a tragedy for us,u must understand that and shud not question our bad mood for next few days

    e)Sometimes we ogle at other ladies for no reason..Try to understand our pysche...is it our fault that we are filled with harmones which starts playing up the moment it sees something nice

    Actually the list continues....

Wonderful Sujatha....very nicely you put the ingredients of humour. I must say this post has the universal appeal and very useful of married women...
    BTW heard that you posted this post from cyber cafe while Tanvi was playing in the park which was adjacent to the cyber cafe. I personally think, this is probably not a good idea to do that.

    Overall liked this post very much. Keep writing:)

    ReplyDelete
  78. Hi Satya,
    Read your expressions. Loved the way you argue. I was totally confused about the language/tone/subject in the beginning.only when I saw the by-line, I went through the whole thing again. I knew that you do not talk so much. These talkative wives put so many words into our mouths too... But enjoyed every bit of it. Both are mad(e) for/about each other. Love you Satya for the logical, intellectual, brainy, bloodless wars you wage against Sujatha!

    Hi Sujatha,
    Read a blog of yours after so long a period. Really loved the way you have nullified your self and got into witty Satya's brain and made him express so fluently! I had enjoyed his great repartee, when we rode our way searching National School of Drama's training venue. I always picturise Satya, that way only. You have really understood 'The Man'! Your fights are worth taking notice. Liked the 'towel' episode and comment about the food tips!
    There are three things I related to, while reading and after reading this masterpiece(mistresspiece!) of yours...
    1. Osho answered a wife,who asked 'Baba,My hubby and I quarrel/fight a lot. What to do?' - You fight means you are in deep love with each other. You don't want to give up the relation, that is why you fight. If you don't want each other, you would have stopped having a talk too.
    2. Remembered the book, WHY MEN DON'T LISTEN AND WOMEN CAN'T READ MAPS? by Allan and Barbara Pease. I had laughed and learnt so much about How men and women are different and what to do about it! The same thing happened now also. Read if you have not read. Great revealings about things we already know. That is the fun!
    3. Read the book Jhumpa Lahiri's INTERPRETER OF MALADIES (This book got Pulitzer Award). There are very intimate stories about family life, so curiously described in a distinctive style and great keen observations!Friends, you would really love them!

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. thank you Naveen. Interpreter i read many years back...must revisit it sometime. the other one by Allan no havent read it yet but will try to check it out in the library next time
