Intricacies in Individualism

They are very strange people……………….

Tied to each other through an unseen shackle. One exists at just a stones throw to the other. Very pleasant to others but after being separately together for long time they are very tartaric to each other. They have suffered so much for what they had dreamed of and now while this dream is coming to a reality they are collecting stones to throw at it. They are going to prepare a stew with contrariety, divergence and dissensions as major ingredients of the recipe.

Apparently, two close beings but actually two strangers amid a superfluous mirth. Silently watering a rotten plant which is not likely to pullulate circumstantially. Egotists, who are quietly protesting against the most powerful cries of their souls. Reluctantly aborting, vehemently hoping and sarcastically pampering their ignored selves. Exactly like waking on a same path to find an intersection.

Both of them are putting very sincere efforts to depreciate their energies. Interestingly, one is optimistic and the other is pessimistic. One of them claims to be very positive and not to mention the negativity of the other. They need mental stimulation; they want to do incredible things but not alone; one needs support of the other but doesn’t ask for it. They were proud to claim that ‘they know each other’. Time has merely proven this sentence not more than a joke. Every discussion is punctuated by “you still don’t know me” full stop, at least by one party.

Despite knowing that mentally, emotionally and socially they are getting into irretrievably awkward situation but none of them is willing to surrender as an individual.

One says, “I think, things are only on the surface and there is nothing deep down or may be vice versa”. “I don’t feel anything”. Few days after this doubtful discovery the same fellow iterates with words full of shiver and eyes stuffed with tears, “Don’t you ever leave me please”. Another annunciation few weeks later, “I don’t trust you” followed by new version, “I can never ever doubt your honesty”.

The other fellow responds very patiently with logical come ups, supportive statements, excessive acceptance and plausible assurances but only in case when being properly heard and responded to. Raging spirals of anger and exasperation gradually reach the limits beyond control – though seldom but always cogent – when unheard and repeatedly ignored.

As a combined entity, they are for each other. They respect and value each other. Want to be together but when it comes to individual assertion, they are at light years’ distance………

Who is better?

Whether mother-fixated girls or father infatuated daughters become good wives?
