Have you seen “House of Cards”? That famous series with loads of political twists, where Frank Underwood’s character has been portrayed as a highly ambitious manipulative politician, Claire Underwood as a cold hearted beauty with brains and a couple which never should be considered as an ideal one? Although in my opinion this duo is the ultimate definition of power couple. I still can’t get over that episode of HOC in the first season where Claire ends up feeding those hungry protestors who were so against of her husband, how table turns in a jiffy! Anyway, I am in the middle of Season 4 of the same series where this power couple is going through a bad phase. I keep smacking my lips in anticipation; this power couple surely can win the whole world together. Judge me as much as you want; my relationship goal has always been to conquer the world with my guy just the way this couple has been doing. Of course, I don’t plan to go that far like them, but yes a bit of control over my very own world is something that I would always want.
I am sure you are questioning my obsession over this whole “power couple” thing. You are thinking that my heart is not really suitable for all the struggles or simply I am fond of shortcuts. Hence, my power couple theory has taken place in my life rather than preparing myself for battling alone. Well; “Solitude” -that happened to me, numerous times. In fact, it still happens. I enjoy being alone and sipping over a cup of coffee standing beside my window. I crave for my little “me” times and I reward myself with that every day, whenever I get the opportunity. Even the beauty of singlehood strikes my mind every now and then so bad that without even thinking I question myself why on earth people opt for this marriage and stuffs! I know it’s not even a minute that I spoke about my plans with my dude but hey, there is no harm in being honest!
Speaking of solitude, I don’t know if it’s a trend or just one of those millennial problems that people like to believe, being single is like one stop solution. Some actually think it’s about being complete, self-dependent and strong. Some think that it’s where the freedom is and loving someone else is too much to handle. For some reason I can’t say the same. I feel like that track of Passengers, we actually hate the road most when we desperately want to get back to home. However, agreeing to let my loved one go is just not my thing. Anyway, I think I couldn’t have appreciated my “Me time” more if I didn’t know that how it feels to be with someone; probably wouldn’t even think of spending some alone time as healing pills. I have started to love myself a lot more after being involved in a serious relationship. I understood that my opinion is valuable because disagreements started to find their way to get in my life. Weirdly, it made me realize that how important it is to make stands and playing safe is not really a safe option. I have never wanted someone else’s attention more before engaging myself in a relationship and to get that I worked hard. At the same time, I got to know that I actually don’t need anyone to make me feel complete. I, in fact realized that how capable I am of many things and how my flaws are wiping out all my good deeds as my guy was there to remind me that. Someone who is dead against of relationships will never realize all these, because that person doesn’t want to know about the other side of the coin. Yes, there is always other ways. You can always have that one friend in your life or your parents. It’s just when you decide to share your washroom to your life with someone else, the scenario gets a different charm. The charm that makes you realize that you really don’t need to put your walls up every time or when you are about to take the leap you know someone down there is waiting or simply ready to take the leap with you. It’s not about “the one”; it’s about the one who makes you realize that you are “the one” even when the crowd is bigger than you imagined.
Oh, you still don’t think so? You haven’t seen the other side of the coin, have you? Flipping coins is just not your thing, eh?
