Yaya finally....My morning Extra whipped, double shot decaf, extra foam, non fat coffee is here. LOL. I just drink tea by the way.

Thank you for your long comment. I have been reading your comments but have been unable to get back to them, but I hope you understand when I give it back using the long updates.

Actually I don't know whose life these emotions are a part of? I just write In fact I don't know what I written until I go back and read them.

So thanks, as long as it makes sense to others I'm happy. If you ask me the fact that Maan is a little close to perfect here itself is not a realistic story line. Dont you think so?

I have only showed some flaws of Maan and even then you people are too positive to see it any other way. I'm a girl and so its easy to write about women's confusions, but since I dont know Much about men, I try to stick to the classic icons of perfection that is what Maan here is too.

Thank you.I loved you comments and have always.

@ rachana, I have to get back to many of your posts. But there is a special dedication post coming your way. This evening?

@ Hasini,

Maan's love is unconditional and holds true! By this I don't mean necessarily mean romantic love but just love in general. Even when he was friends with her, he was always there for her whenever she needed him without asking for anything in return. He's always been the one "giving" and not "taking" as much. He doesn't need any rituals to tie him truly to Geet because he is already tied to her from his love.

For Dadi, I'm having some mixed feelings. I know she means well by getting Maan-Geet married but wasn't she a bit hasty in her plotting and pushing? She's the best well wisher for both and knows what she's doing but nonetheless I feel getting married is something to be very certain of. This certainty can ONLY be brought on and felt by the bride-groom before getting married. Even though I know nothing wrong or ill is going to come out of this, I cant help but wonder if Dadi's pushing was a little too fast.

This uncertainty is even felt by Geet because she questions her decision: did I do the right thing or was I too swayed by emotions to think straight? I'm happy she's thinking about how to make this marriage work and being considerate towards Maan too. Even Maan felt and stated the same: "It all seemed to have happened so fast that I couldn't let the thought sink in that I was standing here for my own Sangeet. My own wedding was tomorrow? People should give some time to process such milestones. Daadiji should have known better or was all this part of a consipiracy"

I absolutely loved Geet-Meera hug and convos. Btw, were you trying to say something by this: "I gave her the Diamond necklace that Daadiji had bought for her. I wondered why she was so special to Daadiji" was this just a negligent statement or does it mean more? Just curious ;-) Yash acting as Geet's brother was really sweet and touched me. I don't have any real brothers so I know how great it would feel to have a brother like figure with you.

It would have been nice if Geet had first talked to Maan first and said Yes for him for the wedding instead of Maan. "This was something to last a lifetime and I wanted to cherish every moment with her but I didn't have my answers and that could spoil the experience for me. I wanted to meet her badly and ask her for an explanation as to why things changed now. What was different now?" Just because he loves her unconditionally doesn't mean that he doesn't deserve his heart's desires to be fulfilled as well na.

I was pleasantly surprised and happy when Geet said that special line ":"Mujhe tab pata nahin tha ki main aapki Geet kab ke bangayi thi'Sirf aapki" If my Nana-Nani wouldn't have been around, I would have danced out of joy near my laptop hehe. I just didn't want to scare them while they were having their morning chai and worry about their granddaugther gone wild ;-p

Jokes apart it was a wonderful part. I was happy to read that she'd removed all of Maan's insecurities regarding the wedding with one sentence. But I was very surprised that he didn't delve into knowing more from Geet on what changed so much? "True she needed that nudge from Daadima, just the way she was my nudge to move ahead with her when I had shut myself from the world" I know that more heart-to-heart conversations are they follow since they're married now but I wish they'd had a little bit of that before the wedding. "I wanted to let go of all my questions, concerns and anger for now and I wanted to be her groom in every way." He's soo much in love with her its making me wish there were guys out like that!! Pata nahi kyun but I'm having little nagging thoughts on the back of my mind that his happiness and obliviousness is not going to stay that way for long. I hope it doesn't end up hurting him unintentionally. Why that line made me thing that, don't ask why cause I have no clue. I hope I'm wrong though J

Maan calling Papaji, Rajji, and Tito was icing on the cake for the sweetness J The wedding dress and pictures were so pretty!! I'm glad you put pics up for this part.

The best part of the update in my opinion was how you gave importance to each wedding ritual from Maan-Geet's perspectives. Removing the veil between them and questioning if all the "veils" have actually been removed or not. The pheres and vows made were beautiful

This line made me want to cry a little: ""Yakeen karo muj pe, I will love you back for all that you are leaving behind and more'." What have you done to me? First I wanted to dance and then I wanted to cry?! Uff..haha Having Geet-Maan name their relationship and say each other's name was so romantic. The games were fun and the rapid fire game was just thunderous! "There were just so many more of it and I realized that we didn't know each other at all. It was only our love that held us together inspite of the differences. I hoped that it was strong enough to lead us into eternity. We still had our own issues to sort out, but tonight was ours" I'm not even going to try say anything about this because I couldn't have said it any better than you already have..

Alright, I had tears in my eyes while reading this part: "Our differences set us apart but I was sure that our bond was that of love and it was would teach us about each other and about ourselves.It was the beginning of a sacred journey, a pristine bond that would show us to love each other in every way'from our hearts'through our speech and actions'manasa, vacha, karmana" How often do you find couples who believe in such depth and sanctity of marriage? Very few people accept and realize this depth and I'm so happy and proud of you for this :-D (btw: did you happen to read the article on marriage on the latest Time Magazine? It's definitely a fascinating article)
