Love or No Love!!!

Today i decided to remain single for next 2 years which will turn me 30. No love, no relationships, no marriage!!!

Was having a discussion with a friend, and she said.. there is a time to everything Ankur... i said yes.. it hasn't come!!! :P

and just now one friend was sayin.. u bet!!! :P

Well, dont know... have read it a lot of places, commented on it.. but u do tell me... how does it feels to be single at 30?
Is it good, bad or kinda mix???
Implications u think???

Really dont have anything great to write so discussing my personal stuff here!!!
but really need u all, for me to look into my decision!!! :)

Cheers!!!

It will feel the same as it does at 28. Koi fark nahi padega, aur padna bhi nahi chahiye.
The "time" for getting into anything is when you "feel" like it. There is nothing too soon or too late.

P said...

I second Aneri_masi.
Don't make your life a time-table. My philosophy is take things as they come, whenever they come. Don't push away love if it comes to you next year. Don't sweat it if you don't find it in more than 2 years.

P said...

Btw, I love this song!

Sach1 said...

Make that two people on bet!
:)
Btw..what's this 30 ka funda goin' on? I think you should marry someone before that. Jaldi dhoondo!

oye age mein kya hai...they r just numbers mate....if yur young at heart doesnt matter if yur 30 or 40...

enjoy yur singleton right now....

Solitaire said...

Single at 30?
Is there a rule that people should not be single at 30?
What's there to discuss about it?

Anonymous said...

When you step away from love, relationships, dating and all that.. it seems like you begin to let your guard down.

Love seems to find you! When you give up on it or just try to put it past you!

Go for it! But I don't see you single long Ankur you are a great catch!!!

Shalom

ceedy said...

on a lighter note I will sponsor 30+ for you....)

I do beleive everything has its time and it will happen when it has to...love has no qualms entering your life at any age....then why do you?

Keshi said...

Seriously what is this

'Is it OK to be single at 30?'

saga going on in Blogville right now?


I dun u'stand it. Does love n marriage go by a certain AGE? Is it Love ur really looking for or SOCIETY's approval on ur life?

Keshi.

Anonymous said...

you got it out of me dude. 30 and all was my post. i shd hv copyrighted it , phbbbbbbbbt

anyways fun apart, you must have your good reasons to evade a relationship for next 2 yrs, but trust me you cannot resist it.

the day you have to fall for somebody, you would and as kashmira says you would one day and when you would, the time and backdrop, the age wont matter

Anonymous said...

keshi, in traditional indian society, marriage has to happen by an age, but then who gives ears to that....

Macadamia The Nut said...

Do whatever your instinct tells you Rockstar ;-)
You're eitherways only as old as you think you are :D

Keshi said...

**in traditional indian society

Ashu u mentioned 2 words that explains this dilemma. And they r:


TRADITIONAL

and

SOCIETY


Who gives a damn abt em! Love isnt abt AGE after all.


Keshi.

Rho Tau GWIS said...

You shouldn't put a time-stamp on it Ankur. What if you find someone next year and fall in love with her? So just take it as it comes.

And who said being 30 and single is bad? I am 30 and I am still not married...but I am very happy with my life. Thats all that matters in the end doesn't it?

Keshi said...

btw Ankur, Stygian has replied to ya in my blog. :) Come check it out!

Keshi.

A said...

you don't plan love or marraige...they just happen :)

Cinderella said...

I say feelings have no age to come, and you neednt rush it you still arent upto it, 30 or no 30.


And like Mia said age is just a no....that shouldnt be a barrier or a influence for anything !

Enjoy life buddy.

RADhika said...

people can be single whenever they want.. just that they should "feel" single.that's it!

Anonymous said...

Sir, I am a fan of yours.Dropped in here through Cinderella's space.Will blogroll you,if you do not mind.
Cheers,

Keshi said...

btw Ankur I hv a msg for u in Anjuli's blog. Hv a read when u hv time.

Keshi.

Staying single is amazing.I believe that applies to all age groups.I mean look at some of the greats that India has ever produced.Bajpayee Ji is a fine example.One can devote all his time for something that he loves to do ( now that love is not what we see in those stupid bolly flicks ).Still, having relationships is being human and 'just working' is being a machine.We actually can not say if its good/bad on an absolute basis.Baaki sab prabhu ki ichcha...

Bhai I am an admirer of your reviews that I read on various blog-spaces.Hope to learn a lot from you Sir.

Chakoli said...

LOL...

Ur choice....afterall its ur life;-)))

Bahut saari ladkiyon ke dil tod diye par aapne;0))))

but I suppose... 2 is better then 1:PPP

Vrijilesh Rai said...

Dont put a leash on urself. At 28, you are at the right age to be open about love and marriage. I would surely say, keep ur eyes n ears and ur heart open to others. Dont try too hard, but dont miss on clear opportunities. Saying I will not fall in love for the next 2 years is like asking ur heart to go on a dharna. Love will surely knock on ur doors.. today or tomm.. dont overlook it.

no idea.. still waiting for 30 n marriage both!

heheh tats cool bro...

so u not invested in diamonds yet i guess...lol...

Prashant evolving.. said...

dude dont decide to remin single.. did you decided tht you wud now get into relationship..it just happens yaar come onn..

aneri_masi said...

on second thoughts...

you should get married by the time you are 30. Otherwise you will break out into hives, your left leg will shorten by half a millimeter every year until you get hooked up, your speech will start to slur. you will start dreaming about toads every day, and the toads will get new skills in every dream.

when you do get married, the symptoms will slowly go away.

now you tell me why you even had such a question in the first place?

aneri_masi said...

and oh, you should have kids by the time you are 30 and half.

Keshi said...

hahaha Aneri good one!


And Ankur, why do u put bars on ur emotions? Such as 'I'll remain single til Im 30' etc etc. U cant really put barricades across what u might feel tomorrow.


U may not be in love today...but who knows who u'd meet tomorrow? Just keep ur heart n soul open to just abt anything. Experiences r waiting to happen and no one knows WHEN.


Keshi.

Anonymous said...

agree with kesji girl!!!

Unknown said...

Ohkay so this is the post that triggered another post. Hmmm.

Staying single at 30, no harm in that as long as you don't have any issues with it.

I guess it's the mindset and the society that sort of puts a lil bug in the head.

Anonymous said...

hey Ankur, i can co-relate to your blog many times. I would love if you could visit mine blog too.

As of it, the 30 is something that i m hitting in 2 weeks time and i m single ;). so if you want to know and feel at 30, i can share it..

nice blog this

crasiezt said...

Does age make a difference? To society yes it does.."Oh mg God he/she is 30 and single..something must be wrong". But why care 2 hoots for losers like them eh?

Rià said...

hmm i wud agree with wht ur friend said!i believe everything happens for a reason and tht everything has its time. I never knew tht i wud fall in love so early in life.....considering the fact tht i was jus 18 then!so chill maar yaar!Har phase main ek apna hi maaza hota hai. :)

aqua gurl said...

All i can say is....being single at 30....no biggie these days....its about how you live your life at 30...not what age 30 does to you!!!

Hi Ankur,
Don;t you reply to comments on ur oter blog...mst be busy na...LOL!

Anyways, nothng to say abt this...ur decision...but I wld contradict...bttr fnd a girl and settle down...only if u can LOL!

Loved ur poems and blog...will visit often :)

ceedy said...

*oh great... m coming there then!! ;)*

aaa jao maine kab mana kiya ;)

*sometimes i have to question myself yaar.. keeping in mind all the pressure coming from the family!! :(*

dude YOU have to know what you really WANT....there will be pressures from all facets of life...what makes you think that post marraige/relationship there will be no pressures.....you cannot buckle at them and set unnecessary boundaries...

instead of seeking answers from everyone and obliging to everything - you need to take some time off for YOURSELF sit and really find out what will make you comfortable - mind you what you think will make you comfortable might not be the right answer - but atleast you tried and took a stance - and then instead of blaming parental/peer pressures for everything in your life - you will be the one to blame and sort it...

aneri_masi said...

***Yaar, coz family wants me to marry anyhow this year, but i am not in any hurry to find the girl i want to live my whole life with!!!

So i dont know what to do... :(***

You DO know what you want. Which is you are not in a hurry. Marrying because someone else wants you to is the worst mistake you can ever make.

30.5 mein kids hone maangte, nahi to toads aayenge dreams mein. How you manage that is up to you :)

Ankur said...

@Ella

nahi badla yaar...

n abt diff... chasme se u looking some other being!! :D
hehe...

Cheers!!!

Ankur said...

Cheers!!!

Ankur said...

@Ceedy

aap mana hi nahi kar sakte ho.. kar bhi doge toh mai nahi manoonga!!! :D

**you cannot buckle at them and set unnecessary boundaries...

sahi kaha... i have realised this!! but u dont know me, at my home they think i m the best guy, who listens to everyone and do as everyone says.. its difficult to break it now!! :P

i tried seeking an opinion, coz this is me... u all r my frnds!! if its reality then face off... but atleast i know how ppl think, learning is good na bhai... so i did... learnt from ppl, decision is eventually gonna me mine!! :)

and yes.. i m not gonna blame anyone, coz i take my decisions, ppl can help me so i will say thanks to them if i succedd, but if i fail, then my fault, coz i choose it!!! :)

:D


Cheers!!!

Ankur said...

@Aneri

**Marrying because someone else wants you to is the worst mistake you can ever make.

yes.. i dont want to make that mistake.. just coz ppl think i m too old wont make me too old!!! :)

I guess being single at 30 could be good and bad based on individuals's preference.

But it can also get stressful when everyone else have someone and you are still hanging.

I say...take one step at a time but yet do not miss out on opportunities that say hi.;)

Sometimes its the little things that lead to the big things that are worth far better than our demanded time.;)

cheers!:D

rayshma said...

got here a tad late... hence, the tardy comment.
honestly... there's nothing like "time" or "age". it's about finding the right person. right for u, not perfect or anything. and once u find the person, u'll know. :)
enjoy being single till u meet the one for u, ankur! all the best! :)
