I was only twenty four when my husband (then boyfriend)
started to introduce the topic of ‘marriage’. The commitment phobic in me ran.
Here I was frightened of any real, committed long term relationship per se and
the tabooed ‘M’ word had already entered.

It changed my life in best of ways. I was proved wrong on
all counts. My apprehensions were unfounded. It was, what I always say, a
blessing in disguise.

Great that you associate one of the most important relationships in your life with the word – blessing. 🙂
Yes and I am superbly grateful for that 🙂
Such a sweet post Richa , and I can relate to it so very much because I got married to my then-boyfriend-now-husband at the age of 23 only 😀 and really it was a blessing in disguise. Stay blessed dear..always ..:-)
Thanks Maniparna 🙂 and then I am sure you would forever understand 😀
That was such a sweet post. I was very apprehensive and scared that I would lose my identity after marriage. But thankfully even after 4 years of marriage my fears still remain unfounded 🙂 Great Post 🙂

Thanks Vishal for the wonderful wish 🙂
First of all, loved the way you weaved the prompt through your life’s journey Richa. Secondly, if you feel 25 is a tender age, then I was snatched from the cradle at 17 😀
Really 17? Wow man 😀 😀
Absolutely delightful – like you, my dear! I know that Vikas is the lucky one! 😉
Hehe well then you know how to always say the right thing! 😀 😀
