A person who never believed in love came to experience the magic and joy it can bring to your life. It was the month of November in 2012 when I first came across a boy named "Munty" on Facebook who was cousin of my best friend. He sent me Friend request which I accepted. I was in the first semester of graduation when we started chatting with each other. Within few weeks of chatting, we exchanged numbers and started talking on phone. Slowly this became part of our life. Chatting and talking regularly became a habit.
Months passed and one day he confessed his love for me.I too had feelings for him. This was the point when friends became lovers. After my graduation, I applied for my Masters in a University near my city. Munty at that time was not doing anything. He quit studying. The general concept in our society about perfect love and perfect match is that both the partners must be educated. So there was a pressure of finding an educated man for myself. Things started getting complex and worse and finally, we broke up after two years of a relationship. I regret that day today. Now I know that degrees and education don't guarantee a successful and peaceful relationship.
What I really wanted was love, care, respect and peace in my life. I got all these things from Munty but these things were not enough for the society and for my parents. Days passed, I got busy with my friends and university life. Munty used to text me to check whether I'm doing well or not. Than there came another boy
Romeo
in my life. A medical student, handsome, perfect smile and ideal personality. Marriage proposal was sent by his family and my father accepted the proposal. We started chatting and things went well for few months.
Gradually he became the one I never thought he could be. Educated man is not supposed to act in such a stupid way. With Munty I experienced something very special and with this educated man everything was different. I was missing Munty while I was in a relationship with Romeo. I wanted Romeo to do all things that Munty used to do. Romeo was always busy he never had time for me. He always made me feel like I'm demanding too much. All i ever demanded was his time and love. I remember texting him and begging him for his love, attention and time but despite of repeating same thing every week he was ignorant towards me. Romeo never texted me first he never called me although he was so called in love with me.I used to write essays and got one sentence reply in response. As the family was involved I never wanted to hurt my parents by breaking the relationship and leaving the person they chose for me.
I tried to keep the relationship going for an year. After which I started feeling depressed. I cried almost daily. His behavior really broke my heart. I was tired of crying. I really wanted to kill myself at that time. My inner peace and positivity was gone. Munty was just a text away but I was being loyal to Romeo. Three years of crying came to an end when I decided to move on.
I talked to my mother and said I can't walk on a life long journey with a heartless man. An educated boy made me cry and an uneducated boy treated me like a princess. I completed my postgraduation and one day I received text from Munty. He asked me about my studies and whether I'm happy in my life or not. I really wanted to tell him everything and how hard, life was after him but couldn't tell him.
