You didn't tell me...

As you probably know, I'm 26.11, single and looking. While Cressida is my first love, I do feel the need to be with some one who can appreciate who I am and what I intend to be.

So I keep meeting people in the hope that I'll find that special someone someday this way.

Recently, while doing so, I got into a situation that reminded me of an interesting incident. It happened a couple of years ago in Trilogy. My situation wasn't as bad as it is in the story but it very well could have been.

The main characters of this story are
a) Girl : Priya Sharma, a Campus Recruitment Specialist in Trilogy
b) Boy : Rahul Malhotra, CSE from some IIT.
(Using cute filmi names to protect identities)

As a Campus Recruitment Specialist, Priya's job is to learn about various campuses assigned to her. This would help her create and execute a strategy for recruiting from those campuses.

Rahul's IIT was a campus on her list and she wanted to get to know about it. She sought help of people from that campus and Rahul eagerly offered to help. They started working closely on recruiting from that campus. This went on for a week or so and they got to know each other well.

One day Priya went outside on some offical work and Rahul went to the HR area looking for her. Not finding Priya, he started making small talk with Pooja, another Campus Recruitment Specialist and a friend of Priya. He started enquiring about Priya and Pooja gave interesting answers to his queries.

Later in the day when Priya came back, there was a brief converstaion between Rahul and Priya which went as follows:

Rahul : "Hey Priya!? You didn't tell me you were married!!!"
Priya : "Well, You didn't ask me"

:-(

Come on guys. Don't ask me the names of Priya and Rahul. I don't think it will add anything to what I wanted to say.

Nandan, believe me I am looking. BTW, I am not torturing myself. It will happen when it has to happen :-)
