Me Against Sick Mentality!

"I wish I could look into your heart. To believe what you say is true…you don’t know how much I want to believe you but I can’t smother my fears, my insecurities. What makes us apart is this inability of mine to believe you really mean what you say".


Sounds quite romantic right? Well to your disappointment or to your relief it is not going to continue the way it started. What I am here to talk about is something that has been a real pain in people’s asses that is other people’s shitty thoughts..!! I never thought I’d write something of this sort on my blog but a few people really asked me to write on it. I feel life would have been much simpler had things been taken just the way they were. This blog is not for my innocent, pure, simple-minded fellows, I love you guys for being so easy going like an old shoe or hat which gives a sense of comfort. It is for the people whose big tongues can wag big time on other people’s business. It’s for all my dear gossip queens, busybodies who cannot keep their noses out of other’s stuff. Still wondering who are they?
1. They doubt the simplicity of people.
2. Can’t help perceiving a situation as more complicated.
3. They are always judging other people’s character.
4. They are way too good at running smear campaigns.
5. They are conceited and vain.
6. They can’t help comparing; they think that ‘unki friend ki baho ki khala ka beta/beti’ is doing far better than us.
The auntie whose dialogues are quoted above never married that sweet fellow because she couldn't get things straight. There are various examples from everyday life that show ‘Sick-mentality is in the air’.
A friend told me, “Once I invited a cousin who is like a brother to me to a college event. When I was showing him around everyone gave suggestive looks at the sight of us. My friend overheard my batch mates saying “*name* ko to dekho, ye to esi nhi lagti thi”. Since my cousin is really handsome, I didn't mind that at all :p”
Thinking about the difference that this existence of sick mentality makes, I asked many of my friends to tell me at least one thing they would have done had there been no such thing, here are their interesting replies,
A says, ‘I would have told my friends I smoke sheesha’.
B says, ‘I’d have stopped pretending to be single, introduced my boy friend to my whole group and also would have taken crazy pictures with him everywhere ;D ’

C says, ‘I would not have kept my nikah a secret in my college years '.
D says, ‘I wouldn't have customized my relatives from viewing my ‘friends photos’.
E says, ‘I’d have joined YSR= youth social reformer’
F says, ‘those who can’t help giving their lame suggestions, I’d have told them that they are too good for me so please save them for your daughters’.

And here is the girl who made freaking awesome contributions to this blog :D

1. I’d have told people being single is not cool, it’s such heartache.

2. I’d have told my cousin that I have no interest whether Miley Cyrus went as a stripper in some VGA show neither I am interested in her picture on her charity t-shirt which clearly reflects her own dire need of charity (don't know what I am talking about? google it!).

3. Back in sixth grade I’d have told my best friend the real reason of smiling that I had a weird dream of kissing a cute fat guy (don’t give me that look it was fascinating in that age).

4. I’d would have attended my guests in trouser and t-shirt because I am not comfortable in any other clothing.

5. I would have told my cousins who live outside Karachi that I've never really been to those cool places and that they have seen more of Karachi than me.
Sounds fun, right? :D Thanks to all those who contributed. RIP  sick mentality!!!
