Things you hear after dating a South Indian ! (Edited)

By -
P.S.: Based on things I've heard from people

Hey Readers ! 
All those who reads my post regularly already know while those who are reading it for first time, I'm saying this. I dated an introvert, who was a South Indian (is a, most proble) for around 2 months. And we know each other for more than a year now.

So in this article I'm gonna write about the things I heard after dating a South Indian. Many of my friends as well as my mom (she knows as a friend), my brother and dida (they know he was my boyfriend) knows about him. 

Even my mom had seen his photo. It was his then DP that time in mask😂. Another was the one I had in my messages wallpaper. I really can't show my secure folder to her, otherwise God knows what she'll do.😂. She knows that he is my friend. And she has strictly warned me not to like him because he is a South Indian, different from our caste and culture.🤦😂 

May be he too had heard few things related to North Indian but since only his sister knew (no idea about who else knew), so may be, he was in safe zone for not listening weird stories atleast. 

Let's begin this journey then ;) 

I'm listing the most irritating thing first. 

1) Whenever I say to anyone that my boyfriend was a South Indian, they were like, "oh, he is a Madrasi". I can't understand why people classify South Indian as Madrasi only. Even when we had talked, I had asked the same question that what's the difference between Telugu and Madrasi. Like here, it's all same. 

So I hear this often. That's why I make them revise complete geography in a go. That South India has 5 states. And he is from Andra Pradesh. And that's why he is Telugu speaking. Madrasi's are from Tamil. And I really feel offended when someone says him Madrasi. Like respect him and his culture. 

No grudges to any but I get irritated on listening this. 

2) Two States was based on your story too that's why you like that movie.
This is the most common thing I hear from people. Few days back, I watched 2 States. Next day, dida was at my home. I told her. And she is like, "obviously it's your favourite movie na". Even my friend group teases me on this sometimes. 

See, I liked Alia Bhatt and Arjun Kapoor earlier and that's why I loved that movie alot. It was a cute love story back then. And yes, I do relate to few things from that movie because we have something similar story. But that's not the reason why I like that movie. 


3) He is a South Indian. Definitely he wears lungi and carries those sword.
Like man, it's only shown in movies. This is the rarest comment I have heard that too from one of closest friend back then. She was a movie buff. That's why she had said me this. 

I don't know whether he wears lungi or not but definitely he doesn't carry sword. C'mon he is studying in one of the best engineering college of India. How can you expect him to be rowdy? 

Akka says sword is common in Punjabi's. For south Indian there hands are enough.😂 

4) Do you know his language? Can you speak? Teach me na !
Most often I hear this. Even my old school best friend said the same. Yes, I'm learning his language. But I'm just in initial stage. Secondly, I can't teach because I barely know. I'm already confused on how to write "matras" in Telugu. 

5) They all just keep saying about culture like we don't have any. 
This was said by my same best friend who had proposed me. At that time, he didn't knew my ex is a South Indian. 

And honestly, I was saying him, that, "no, they don't talk about culture that much". My ex never said about culture and all atleast. 

6) So if you will marry then it will be a South Indian wedding? 
We are not dating even. Forget about marriage. And I don't know all my friends had asked this question atleast for once. 

Akka only says, you decide the wedding. I want biryani in any case.😂

7) Does he know Hindi? Do you both talk in English all the time? 
This is the most frequent one. 
He does know Hindi. And he actually speaks well. We do talk in English but only in chats. 

8) South Indian are innocent and sweet. And they are helpful.
This is from few of my friends who have South Indian friends. Lol, my ex isn't sweet. He is Mr.Obodhoro. 

Though they talk politely sometimes. Varies person to person. Same with helping nature. 

So this is the end to it. May be he too had heard few things on North Indian, if in case someone knows me from his side😂. 

We met. We loved. We came together. And everything ended. We had a beautiful story. And I like him the way he is. May be if he wasn't a South Indian then I wouldn't have liked him that much. I don't know but his South accent is way too cute. And I can't stop myself falling for him. I like him and his South Indian culture too. And I actually repsect him for everything. 💙

I don't care what people say now. They keep judging. If I'm happy, then it's right. And it's pretty simple. 🙈🤷🏻‍♀️😄

P.S. : I'm adding images of card I had made for my Mother in class 6/7. I found it today. 🙈😂.

That's it 🙈💙😂

Thank you ;)

Edited: 
Since I added most stories related to my friends. So I'm adding few related to my family. 

Starting with some funniest story. 

Every time I say about "love". Dida says me, "chennnnnaiiii expressssss". I find this extremely funny. Though sometimes I say he is not from Chennai though. 😅🤷🏻‍♀️ But she says that out of love and fun.

My brother doesn't like cutie. Often he says about South Indians present in their classes. I ignore him like I ignore every other boys right now. 

My mom knows that he is my friend. Once she had read my Kundali, where it was written that I'll get married to someone who will either live in East or in South direction. Next morning, around 7, she came to room saying, "baby, please don't love that Madrasi". I'm like, "who Madrasi?". She says, "your Instagram friend who is in your contacts now"🤦. I got so irritated by Madrasi word that I said her, "please, first he isn't Madrasi. Secondly,we don't talk even. Forget about love". 

On serious note, if things gets serious between us in future. Then don't know how hard it'll be to our convince parents.😬 Obviously his parents won't like me and mine too. And the reason would be culture and caste. 🤦🤷🏻‍♀️

But the struggle would be worthy if it's with the right partner. 

Signing off, 
Ira Ankita 

Thank you ;)

Three jewels of life

Once a man asked what's the most satisfying feeling in world ? To which  a wise man replied , "  the most satisfying of all feeling is connection to the soul , to the human spirit ". Spirituality is something that adds meaning to life. It's connection to something bigger than our thoughts . Have we ever realised why people do yoga and meditation? They do so because it's connection to one's mind. Meditation is direct connection to oneself. It's a form of spirituality.  Here I am going to write about my favourite you tuber , who indeed is an spiritual leader , "Gaur Gopal Das jii".  His stories are quiet famous around the globe . But I am going to write about the  three important jewels of life. Once a man was in forest . He saw a beautiful bird. As soon as he saw her . He wished to keep her at his home. So he caged  her from back . The bird being caged now said to the man .  She will tell him three important jewels of life onl...

A love to last

Talking about the most underrated feeling in the world , " self love".  We are living in the generation where everyone is busy finding love or most probably saying life partner. But what about self love , self care ?? Does they don't matter ?  In one of the finest movie of bolywood ,   Dear Zindagi .  Their is a dialogue where the psychiatrist says to the actress , " Jab hum Apne aap ko Achi Tarah samajh Lete hai toh doosre kya samajhte hai , it doesn't matter ,  NOT AT ALL " . I think this is so true .  When we start loving ourself then it doesn't matter who love us or who care about us or what they think of us. In the same movie , there is an infamous dialogue ,  " tum agar khulke roo nhi sakogi ..toh khulkar Hass kaise sakogi". This is worth reading the lines.  If we can't show anger to anyone then how can we love someone. How can we feel worthy of ourselves .  We should care about our self esteem and self respect. We should really fe...

Teen ager thoughts !! 🦋

By -
Teen age the most dramatic phase of our life. The age where each day our opinions about everything changes. The things we like today might not be the same tomorrow. The people with whom we love to spend time today won't be the same tomorrow. In between the hormone rush , we decide lots of things related to our future. Whether it can be career, college, jobs , friendship , love and so on. We don't even know whether we really want that or not . The transition that take place in this ongoing years are remarkable. The things we get addict to know whether good or harmful keeps going on till the end until someone help us to stop it.  The uncertainty about everything marks the teenage . Changes that take place in our mindset becomes the reason for all the choices we take . Time goes on and so is the phase.  Sometimes we are lonely  , sometimes together with everyone. Sometimes we hate everyone and sometimes everyone is important. Sometimes someone takes the special place without...

What DEATH Taught Us ?

By -
Since childhood , we all are interested in knowing what happens after death . Whether their is really heaven or hell ? These are the most intriguing questions we all have . But what about the lessons we learn in the process?  We all discuss about :  1. What life teaches us?  2. How life teaches us ?  3. About how karma works in life ?            But what about death ? Why don't we discuss what death taught us? Why don't we talk about the lessons we learnt after some one left us ?  I remember watching the video of Gaur Gopal Das jii where he mentioned about his father's death and how much he regretted about not saying sorry to him for the mistakes he did everytime. This is what death taught us . The importance of person when they are gone. The importance of relationship infront of being right.  The importance of love Infront of ego.  Once lost then they can't come back . This is the most depressing one - liner. Once we lost...

What irritates me these days?

Messages and calls.  I had my exam today. After getting bored from last 1 hour. I finally thought to write something. My battery percentage decreased from 16% to 11% while charging, when I was using my phone.  I don't know but these days I get so many messages on WhatsApp and so many calls. Majorly calls are from either from my family or my friends (warden and my neighbour too).  The same goes with whatsapp messages but they are more than enough. Yesterday Akka had sent me my whatsapp usage. And all were of 2 mins majorly. Only Akka is the one who message me randomly. Rawat and Shruti (sometimes) too otherwise rest all just for work. It sucks actually. No one to talk real apart from few.  in one day I get around 10 messages. And it's of everyday.🙄 Obviously I get messages related to study from my friends or something that's important. I don't check status even. Majorly at night or when I come back from class (only of those whose I...
