Got married!

[Awesome]

3. Get rid of all eccentricities which you thought were cool in bachelor life. No more superhero movies, underground metal movements are strict NO. Neo noir and latest from Tarantino can wait. Brace yourself for Tagore plays and songs. If you are brave enough try to embrace Star Jalsa. Remember even Tony Stark had to destroy all his cool iron suits and fix his heart after getting married, and you are but mere mango people.

I was with you till this part. I need my daily fix of Sci Fi/Superhero/supernatural. The Mrs. will have to get on board.

So I finally decided to tie the knot with my fiancé. We have been dating for last three years and no strangers to each other. It was typical Indian wedding, very extravagant and all. Everyone enjoyed and I was broke. Had to lend money from my sister for even more extravagant holiday trip (god bless you dollar for being so strong against Rupee!).
Anyway here are some tips from my experience to the bachelors who are going to be/wishes to be married!

1. Photography as hobby is cool, as long as you take her pictures and make her look like Bollywood actress. But god forbid if you take 15 minutes to set your tripod up and another 45 to tinker the exposure and aperture to capture this amazing sunset in an wonderful place where you are alone with your newlywed wife, you are screwed up and sideways. This is going to haunt you for rest of your trip and back home!

2. If you are agnostic/atheist, please throw away your lack of belief and skepticism for few days and follow the wedding rituals as if they are client requirements! And don’t ever mess with her gods; you wouldn’t want a suicide bomber at your home, would you?


4. Don’t be too absorbed unto yourself. Your gorgeous and more qualified than you wife needs more attention. Try to sing Wonderful Tonight in an endless loop every time she takes 3 hours to get ready for the party. You better be as good if not better than Clapton.

5. Remember life is not a debate in Internet forums. Don’t get too smart with your words and point out the obvious logical fallacies in her argument. Words you can counter but you’d be helpless against her shedding tears and various inanimate and animated objects she will throw at you.

6. Be grateful that she married you, remember there are so many reason she couldn't have married you.

Jokes aside, it’s been wonderful journey so far, there have been few hiccups and so much fun and happiness. I hope it will remain as it is for rest of our lives together!

Here here. The bolded part is so important. The line of work I'm in, and internet debating makes me uniquely qualified to pretty much win every argument with normal folks. On the other hand its truer than all truths, there really is no winning in an argument with the Mrs. You'll lose really bad, especially when you win .

And Congratulations, may you both have a happy and prosperous life!

How does the dating work in Bengal? Is it frowned upon to have boyfriends/girl friends? Or was it always clear that you would get married to your wife so no one actually bothered you guys?

By the way Wish you a happy and prosperous married life. Don't make too many babies if you know what I mean Population is already too high in India

Dating works just as it does in most western countries in Indian Bengal. In my humble opinion, at the peril of generalizing entire population, Indian Bengalis are more liberal than most other ethnic groups in subcontinent. Since we both were born and brought up in Calcutta, it was no different than how people date in Mumbai, Bangalore or Delhi - minus the ultra ring wingers since we had been ruled by communists!

However there were still some restrictions like late night parties or night out together etc. You need circumvent those!

Mere thought of having babies gives me mild heart attack, come on dude I still have a lot to enjoy in life.
