Playing the Tag by Neelima..

Rules : Write about the changes that have happened in your life, at least five, because of your significant other. Then Tag five others. If they don’t have a significant other, then any one person, who has caused the change.

I really cannot say I have changed.. but yeah.. some enhancements does creep in when we are in relationships.

I am still a lazy bum.. I still do what I want, I still make his life miserable with my antics, I am absentminded.. as always.. well the list goes on.. very unpredictably predictable.. at the very least.. haha !!

• Bikes, engines, I have a wealth of information about that stuff about which I never bothered to bother.. An add on to that is that because of Rocks, I am addicted to biking and traveling and making a set of great friends as we move forward.. I got a journey which is never ending.. it just forks on and on.
• Art of patience …. well I have not mastered it since innately I am not the patient type but well it has slowly creeped in. There is a time and space for everything and thats what my relationship with Rocks taught me. I am sure kids will bring in more.. thats what my good friends tell me.
• Confidence in myself : That did increase manifold.. When one is in a relationship this factor does get a boost as well as a thud depending on which side you are.. Mine keeps boosting every moment I am with him because of living together everyday and well I do thank my lucky stars for that.. Can we call this a change. I would still call this an enhancer.
• Expectations : A relationship or a marriage does each partner lessons in expectations.. root level as well as high level.. self, friends, family.. everything.. so well I guess thats one area I would like to think that I have learnt to set and reset my expectations.. to avoid getting into any unexpected ego hassles continuously.. and he has helped me there..
• Organization : I like to think ( mind you its vague though) that I organize better because Rocks is a stickler of organizing everything in life.. I am the opposite but heck whats the harm.. I definitely like to think I am teeny weeny bit changed..

Well I think thats it..

But while doing this tag, I was thinking.. change is good but where does my original personality go for which my significant other loved/loves me.. ??

When I think of that, I would think I am the same.. silly gal.. and well thats what keeps the relationship going.. being you and him being him..

Of course we mature and grow into each other and imbibe each other’s habits and all that blah.. but change ??

Looking at Rocks too, he is still the same.. he has a doozy sense of humor for which I love him so much and all the qualities which I dont have in me..

* BLINK *

!!! Shudder !!! ( I am imagining another me as him and another him as me … it is unthinkable.. )

Not acceptable..

So let me say that we have gotten used to each other and developed or enhanced our habits to suit a living that is suitable for both of us.. but the essential me or him.. I think we are the same..

Very very personal opinion here.. !!! I am thinking aloud here.. so don’t judge me.. !! I am rambling as usual..

I am more than glad to see people change for the better or for the different and really being happy.. More power to all of that.. !!

So well, anyone can take this tag up.. Open to anyone who reads this post..

I leave you with “Lessons Learned” for today

Have a good weekend.. !!
