Types of Friends

My friends, you're the inspiration behind this post. Some of you might as well relate to it, since this has to do with the various types of friends one has (usually). 
Read on to find out if you have any of the following on your friend list! 

1. Daily dose
The exact type of friend who you talk to on a daily basis. Day in and day out. They may or may not be your best friends but are sure to buzz you each day without fail, and vice versa. 
They will know when you wake up and when you sleep, probably because they are the first and last person you talk to after you're up and before you're asleep, respectively. It goes without saying that they are there when you need them and your day is incomplete without a chat with them. Simply put, you can't even go 24 hours without talking to them. Period. 


2. The let's-meet-up friend 
He or she might not talk to you often enough but whenever you do talk, you always end up with "Milte hain na yaar" and "Chal iss week, pakka". 
Random plans to catch up that never really actualise. 



3. The friend indeed 
This type of friend does justice to the proverb, "A friend in need is a friend indeed". No matter what, he or she will always be there beside you when you need them. Be it when you need someone to cover up for you or someone to take care of your cat at home, they're always hanging around. 



4. The intuitive friend 
You can't hide anything from them for the simple reason that their intuition is stronger than the persuasiveness of your words. Even if they don't contact you in days, they will know something has been bothering you deep down or what's been the high in your life. They can easily tell things are messed up, by a simple look at your social profiles. 
At times, this kind may well be called the 'Motherly friend' for reasons best known to us: Mothers get to know everything. 



5. Hanging out bud
We all have this one type of buddy who is ever ready to hang out, even when he/she is broke. More often than not, it's this friend who is the party animal. He/she can be found anywhere but at home. Late night parties, sleep overs, early morning long drives and what not. They're up for it. 



6. The 'Me' friend 
Let me get some self obsession here. This is the type of friend people crave to have. The sweetest, most caring, affectionate and loving friend who is ready to cross the oceans even for morons who won't cross a puddle for them. The optimist kind who never gives up on people except for times when the saturation point is reached (I know the basics of science, babe!). You can pour your heart out to this one with an assurance of not being judged and share your deepest secrets with a surety that they will remain so. 
If you're my friend, you'll know this type well! *wink*

Better Single than Sorry

Walking down the aisles at Archie's gallery, gazing at various love objects such as Teddy Bears, Cupid idols, Love birds, Together forever frames, and other love-related shit; I finally ended up picking a Happy Anniversary greeting card for my parents. If this is not the torment of Valentine's day, then I don't know what is. No, the torment isn't buying an Anniversary card, it's the struggle to find general greetings amidst this store full of red hearts and love quotes that describes a world where love is measured by objects and not emotions.  If you choose 14th February to confess your feelings, that's not falling love, it's fooling in love. With due respect to Saint Valentine and Cupid, this day has become overhyped, overrated and over celebrated. How can you decide to pamper your loved one only on one day of the year and bestow all the love (pocket money) upon them?  Expensive gifts and flowers only provide the sellers with one week of good business and t

Things We Do When We Hate Someone

We have all been mad at someone or the other for some reason or the other but does that put an end to our love for them? Do we stop feeling the same for them? The answer is relative to the reason for which you’re mad at them. IF it is something that can be fixed, then the answer is NO, but surely when the damage done is irreparable, let’s take YES as the answer. People change, feelings change. Nobody can guarantee same behaviour throughout the course of a relationship. This is one solid ground for relationships falling apart. They say, "The opposite of love isn't hate. It is indifference." I am a true believer of these words but then again, sometimes, the next level indifference is called hate, or so I like to think. It's like they cease to exist for me, hence their role in my life becomes zero.   If I were to define hatred, it would be "absence of love”. It is a long ride to go from being mad at someone to hate them but there’s no looking back when you de

Are you ready to fly?

There is nothing that excites me and amazes me more than airplanes. The sole possibility of travelling back and forth in time, defying all perceptions of time travel. There is also nothing that makes me cringe more than being on an airplane. It makes me sick to the stomach, sends shivers down my spine, and renders me helpless, all at the same time. There is a reason why people send texts and make calls before take-off and after landing. No matter how advanced air travel becomes, no matter how many thousands of dollars you spend on that luxury first-class suite just so you can feel at home at 40,000 ft in the air, the fear is inherent. I am no frequent traveller, I am no member of the mile-high club, I am just a young girl who sees airplanes as nothing but a means of transport and occasionally a means of thrill. Having taken a few different flights to and from a few different destinations in the world, what has remained unchanged is my praying before each take-off and after e
