Gal : Before this girl bring shame to the family, get her married.
Boy : log kya kahenge (what world will say?)




 
Only in our Indian Ethnicity people will be asking questions like these....

1. WHY ARE YOU NOT GETTING MARRIED YET?
Shooting this question to an unmarried girls, who have crossed the age limit of getting married, as though there is an age limit has been set by GOD or government.



2. ANY GOOD NEWS? ARE YOU GUYS GOING FOR ANY CHECK UP?
Usually this type of question will be asked to long time married couples whom are praying everyday to get baby after going through many struggles and pain in their life. They ask this very frequently where ever they meet them, as though they are willing to become their baby's surrogate mother.



3. I HEARD YOU ARE DIVORCED? WHY...? WHAT HAPPENED?
To a divorcee whom just getting recovered from the painful life he / she went through. They are asking as they are ready to let their daughter or son to get marry with them.  


Yeah...yeah...yeah....I can hear you saying "Hello...! It's just a simple question...!"
YES...!!! It is a simple question for those who are asking it, but you may not know how hurting is that to hear the same questions.....again and again...not only from you repeatedly...but from many as well....yet they still need to answer it without hurting you...! To help you understand their situation more easily...It's something like you are asking a bald-headed man "why there is no hair on your head?"  

So moral of the story is...
When you don't have the solution for it, why waste time asking for the reason. So always spread the positive words...! It may lift you up and lit up those hurted hearts as well.
