Supriya is getting engaged this week and this is the message she sent me: “What are you wearing for my engagement”
I replied, “I have the prettiest pink saree. I’ll probably wear that”
Supriya: “Wear whatever, but I’ll look the best on that day”.
Me: “Yeah! It’s your day. I’ll let you have it”.
To this she replied “Thank you my highness, I love you for this”. I could sense sarcasm in her text. But that didn't stop me and I replied “Yeah, I love myself too”.
She called me an egotist and refused to pick up the phone when I called to patch up. Either she was upset or got busy looking for an even prettier saree to compete with mine.
The other day, Trishna (my flat mate) caught me blowing kisses to myself and passed a comment “You must really love yourself na?”
Duh! I wonder what took her so long to figure that one out. Chances are, she did not notice all those love bites on my mirror image.
I don’t want to be bragging here, but I think if only I were a little more modest…I would be the perfect human being that ever walked this Earth. I just need to be a little more modest…that is all.
I found out that I was perfect the day I played Mira Bai’s role in a school play. After I got off the stage, the audience and my teacher went loud, crazy and unruly. She even told me if she was a guy and I was an adult, she would marry me. Puhleez! Like I would agree to that. One of my classmates walked up to me and said: “You were amazing. I don’t have words to describe you.”
I said: “Try harder.”
She didn’t yield to my prompt and we spent the next ten minutes discussing my background, my family and my future plans. When I got bored I told her: “Enough of me….let us now talk about you.”
I could see she was happy.
“What do YOU think of me?” I asked her…but she stared right through me and went on her way.
A friend of mine has fallen in love with himself and is looking forward to a life-long romance. As if that was not enough, another friend wants to die in her own arms. Now, what do you call that?

I think you really have beaten the point to death this time.....I could not read a single word related to "self-obsession" after going through your post. Oh!...Well done you!! (clap-clap) :)
Uff...is this the new form of sexuality?? Indian Constitution needs to add one more page soon I guess!! ;)
But when one can take his/her own life...why not fall in love with oneself?? Haina sochne wali baat???
OMG, I seemed to have offended many people here.
@Saima: koi aur meri taareef hi nahi karta, toh mujhe hi karni padti hain
@Shia: U'll hafta live wid dis all ur life. My room mates got bugged wid me after a point wen every morning I got up, looked at myself in the mirror and told them about how lucky they wer to be sharing their room wid the prettiest girl around.... ;-)
@Sreeram: Of course sochne wali baat hai... But I bet, everybody love themselves, else why would anyone spend 30 mins in the shower (If they are not admiring themselves)?... at least I am open abt it.... ;-)
