Tete-a-Tete with The Man

After a long blogging hiatus, I am back with some interesting new introductions. So here’s presenting the one and only, husband a.ka. punching bag/alternate ATM/body guard/driver/all-new-best-friend. I guess the best way to introduce the man is by presenting his own views about himself, about me and about marriage in general. So here’s our blogs very first interview. Presenting - PV! (***applause!***)



1. Tell us something about yourself - the way you are as a son, fiance, friend and/or an individual


Ans: I think as a son I would have preferred being a less annoying child in my adolescent years. I don’t think I was naughty kid, but I don’t think I have risen to my dad’s expectations and would like to be able to do so some day. As a fiance, this is an action item for Jinu (Jinu only responds to MBA/Office jargon and everything has to be presented to her as another action item). Friends, I don’t know if I can make friends like you do Jin, friends for whom you can do anything for. I have a very pragmatic relationship with my friends I guess. As an individual I am practical, passionate about computer security and emotional.

1. You are such an eligible bachelor, pretty much any girl in the bay area would be on her knees to marry you. Why a girl so far away? Why Jinu?

Ans: I am far from being an eligible bachelor. Girls in the bay area? It is called Gay Area/Man Jose for a reason. Jinu because it just worked out in every way.

2. If you were to tell our audience 3 things about finding the right life-partner, what would they be?

Ans: Don’t over analyze the situation, know who you are and then know what you want.

3. What have been the most exciting moments for you in the past few months?

Ans: Planning for our HoneyMoon :P

4. Have there been any ups and downs? How did the two of you deal with them?

Ans: Yes there were a lot of ups and downs, talking and being honest and saying the right things even if it hurts the other person is probably the best way to approach these kinds of issues.

5. You must be rigorously planning your wedding now. Are you nervous, excited? Tell us how you feel right now.

Ans: I don’t know if I am as rigorously planning for the wedding as I am for the honeymoon. Absolutely excited not nervous. Should I be nervous?

6. What are the things you are most looking forward to after getting married, other than the obvious of course :)

Ans: Not always having to call someone or the other if you want to go out for a hike, a new restaurant or exploring new things. Always having someone who will back you up and encourage you to pursue things out of the box.

7. What is the most special thing you've done to please her so far? Has she done something out of the ordinary for you?

Ans: I am a pretty boring person when it comes to surprising things. I think by far the gift that she cherishes the most is a book called Ifferisms that I gifted to her. On  my birthday she created this website on which she noted down all our memories together. That was damn special.

8. Where do you see yourself - the two of you and your relationship 10 years from now?

Ans: Hopefully back in India with both of us in good positions career wise.Babies, a house with a garden and two adopted dogs.

9. Thanks a ton for your time and for telling us all these beautiful things. Do you have any closing comments? Any special message for her or our audience?

Ans: Keep reading and recommending this blog to others. I think Jinu gets paid for the google ads that get displayed on her blog. So the more the richer she becomes.
