A Pertinent Question

The Boy is forever perplexed by the question - Why do women check other women out?!!

In case you haven't noticed, we do. All the time. And the answer is simple - we don't check out the women, per se. We check out what they're wearing - the clothes, their shoes, the bag they're carrying, and their sense of style in general.

The Boy then goes on to make a very relevant point - if women are busy checking other women out, when do they check men out? And do they notice men checking them out?

Yes, we do. Both. Did no one tell you women are great at multi-tasking?!!

The Name is Bond

Shane Bond.

And he is super HOT.

And my crush du jour.

The biggest turn-on about him is his icy cool demeanour - composed & aloof.

Yes baby, I would totally take you to bed.

Who Have You Helped Today?

Have you ever tried to help someone only to have it backfire on you?

A couple of weeks back, a colleague asked me if I knew of any houses that were available for rent around where I live. A friend of hers was moving to Cal from Bombay as the Regional Head of Sales of a company that manufactures automotive lubricants, and needed a place to stay.

The next day, I ran into a neighbor who was looking for a tenant, so I passed on the information to the guy who was looking for a place to stay. I must have spoken to him for two minutes on the phone, and after I hung up he started pestering me to meet him through text messages. The day he was scheduled to inspect the house, he messaged me every hour to come see the house with him! I ignored his messages, hoping he'd get the hint but that hasn’t discouraged him from messaging me almost every day! And he’s taken to calling me from random landline numbers because I won’t take calls from his cell phone.

The man is in his mid 30s and has a wife & kid back in Bombay. It didn’t come as a surprise to me. I’ve seen enough married men trying their luck with single women, and those of us who’re vulnerable fall right into the trap. I’m not freaking out over this yet, but it's getting really annoying. And thinking that he’ll be moving into the building next to mine this weekend is not a happy thought.
