The girlfriend

I am not Chetan Bhagat. At least I will not dream of composing half girl friend.  Cause if you use basic algebra you get a halved girl or a halved friend.  But combining the two is the dilemma. A half girlfriend.
I guess we are the only country where a girl is not a friend or rather the juxtaposition of the two nouns end up with it being neither.
The snickering and the know all winks. Girl friend.  Mamma Mia.

You are in college. OMG. And a girlfriend? What about studies.

Few years down the line. You look for settling.  But then again. You get your emotional settled first? And subsistence?

So you go on till you are settled.  And the girl friend gone.  It's you now settling down for the sake of progeny.

So Mr Bhagat,  I would settle down for a muse for eternity.  Never a half baked sad story of a girl friend.
