Girlfriend

My friends have asked me this question countless times and my readers are curious to know about one aspect of my life which I have guarded like a tiger will protect its cub. Do I have a girlfriend? That's the million dollar question which seems to be on everyone's lips. Nobody has an answer to that as I'm the only one who can come clean on that and not keep my friends and readers in suspense. Haha..My friends have always said that my standards are always sky-high and I should lower down my standards. My standards are not that sky-high and they are not that ridiculous..I'm not expecting a supermodel or a Ms World to fall at my feet or sweep me off my feet with her beauty. I want my readers and friends to know that my expectations are reasonable for a simple man like me.
A girl of Arabic-South American heritage with a Jewish brain and a carefree personality of an Australian with a analytical component of an Indian will be an ideal girl for me. Too much to ask..haha..but in reality, a girl who is smart enough to engage me in intellectual conversations(think of Julia Stiles) is the one I'm seeking for and the girl need not have to be very pretty. If the girl has a great personality and a sense of humour, it will be a bonus. Is a smart and above average girl a sky-high expectation? I don't think so and I do not want to lower down my reasonable expectations to a ridiculous level just to get attached and be loved by someone whom I might not have feelings for as I do not want to cheat the girl and myself and will rather save the trouble for the both of us.
It takes two hands to clap in a relationship. I do not want to go into a relationship for the sake of getting attached as everyone is attached. I don't see the need to be attached at this time as relationships are at the back of my mind and the girls do not interest me at the moment unless something magical happens. If the time comes, it will come. You can't seek love. Love will find you. I have not heard of couples who met a club or at a pub going strong. Do I have a girlfriend? What do you think?
