HOW NOT TO TREAD ON YOUR PARTNER’S EMOTIONAL TOES

Life and living are all about relationships. You, I, he and she all live and thrive on good relationships. Though the word Relationship covers the entire gamut of human bonds- this post-on the eve of Valentine’s Day is about romantic relationships.

I have read often that one has to work on relationships. I would prefer to say that one has to act with awareness and be always sensitive to the other’s feelings. Put simply, just keep your emotional intelligence always on alert so as not to tread on your partner’s emotional toes.

1.    TELL ‘I LOVE YOU’ AGAIN AND AGAIN.

And then again and again…In the bedroom, in the bath, in the kitchen, out in the streets…wherever.
Sounds tame and old fashioned? Well, there is nothing tame about love. Never be tired of announcing your love to your precious partner. Be generous in your hugs and kisses.

2.    SPLURGE A BIT.

If your partner is in the mood for a little reckless spending, so be it. Loosen your purse strings a bit, and do not, for God’s sake, start that lecture on world economy. Of what use money, if it cannot bring sunshine into your relationships. You can, with your high E.Q, find an appropriate time to discuss and get your finance back on stable ground.

3.    THOU MAY NOT THRUST.

Do not thrust yourself, literally or otherwise on your partner by being too demanding and possessive. Give him or her some free space so that your partner doesn’t gag on the relationship.

4.    DO TRUST.

If there be only one single word for a lasting relationship of any kind, it is TRUST in all matters, not merely physical. Never challenge your partner based on hearsay, even though the matter in question might have come from a reliable source. Always give the benefit of doubt in all matters to him/her and then gently sort it out between yourselves- if you must-with great tact and dignity.

5. PRAISE IN PUBLIC, CRITICIZE (IF YOU MUST) IN PRIVATE.

I cannot overemphasize the importance of this Golden Rule which is self explanatory. On many an occasion, I have seen the shame and embarrassment on some friend’s face, when reprimanded by the spouse in public. Here the issue, however important it may seem at that time, should take a back seat and be swept under the carpet for the time being, to be worked out in private.

6.     BE THERE.

No doubt, there will be demands on your time from your career, and many other responsibilities that you may have to shoulder. But you must reassure your partner that you will always accord due priority in case of any requirements or exigencies.

These are of course not exhaustive, but valuable tips for an evergreen relationship.

HAVE A FANTASTIC VALENTINE’S DAY!

A RUMMY TALE

-
As he lay there, wallowing in stale rum and self-pity, know not how long; The red-eyed monster sprang up suddenly from the brimming liquor; Gulping down a glass of liquid fire, he roared, “Now! Shoot her now!” “She deserves no pity- who has let you down so badly.” Drowning in rum, he attempted to raise his head, Raising placatory hands to his personal devil, “Now, now, let us not go there, so afar! Remember, she used to be my cynosure till week last, It’s just a pity that she was charmed by someone else.” “Beware if you show any mercy to that unfaithful wretch!” Growled the beast, spitting out shards of glass in disgust and adding, “Be a man, take the sharpest knife and plunge it in her heartless heart.” He cried out loud and pleaded with folded hands, “No, no, can’t ever do that, please for Heaven’s sake, go away.” “Then you leave me with no other option,” sighed the monster, Stabbing him straight through the heart. “Cardiac arrest due to excessive sorrow and str

He was a great sculptor, was legendary Jakanachari; Hence he was known as the immortal Amarashilpi. When his work demanded his attention total, He left home, both dear wife and child- still foetal. Engrossed in creating beautiful sculptures and temple carvings, Jakanachari totally forgot family and other normal cravings. After many years passed, he was assigned a work at Hoysala, An idol to sculpt lovingly for the temple of Chennakesava. When at Belur his beloved handiwork was to be installed, Suddenly, another sculptor, a stranger, on him called. When Dankanachari claimed a flaw in the idol to be there, Jakanchari swore to cut off own hand if any there were. Alas! A flaw was discovered in the marvel, A live frog seen lurking in the navel, After the sculptor sadly cut off his own arm, He realized it was his own son, caused him this harm. Then father and son hugged each other at this loss, And prayed to the Lord this bad time would pas

A TIMELESS PROPOSAL

-
From childhood, Sujatha had a fascination for adventure, fantasy and sci-fi stories. Now in her early twenties, she still loved to read books or see movies which took her off on a long flight of fancy. She could spend hours dreamily in such pursuits, unlike her smart phone peers. Though she detested conventional travels, she loved the concept of time travel. Her parents, while happy about her not being addicted to the phone and the Net, were also a bit worried about her romantic notions on time travelling, AI etc and tried to gently wean her away towards regular studies, with limited success. Frequently, she would relate the details of the weird dreams she started getting of late. Elves, dwarves, princes and princesses paid nocturnal visits to Sujatha in increasing frequency. While this perturbed her parents further, Varun, her younger brother would tease her, “Didn’t you see any tall handsome prince so far, instead of dwarves and other uglies?” “Anything done in
