The search commences.
Scratch that.
The Search commences!
Yes that conveys the sentiment with accuracy. My mother has been unleashed upon the marriage market with the objective of finding an amiable groom for me. I admire her optimism despite the numerous rejections that she makes everyday.
Apparently, all eligible bachelors have flown abroad to make their livelihood while I am set on staying in Bharath. Therefore, every day brings forth a cacophony of grumblings from her as she blasts the poor shmucks on matrimonial sites and rues over the nice shmucks who are settled abroad.
Thanks to the pandemic, I have yet not come under the radar of the perennial aunties whose sole aim in life is to get every eligible bachelor and bachelorette married. I believe I will escape most of that shelling as I know very few such people and now don’t socialize in the same spheres as them. Technically, I don’t socialize at all nowadays. But that’s a point to be dwelt on another time.
More on this in future!
