Usually we try to look our best when we are talking to our potential arrange marriage partner for the first time. But that day, I looked my worst.
We were in different countries and the only possible way to meet was online. I was hoping the call would be next morning when I would have washed my hair, put on a bright top & probably leave him hoping “Oh! I want this beauty!” but life had other plans.
So there I was at 11 pm in my faded blue shirt, with sleep In my eyes and oil in my hair when his video call came.
It was around 1:30 pm in Canada and he was on his way to his cousin’s place but he parked his car on the side and “the moment” began.
Ten minutes later when the conversation ended, the tiredness was gone and I was feeling a rush of energy inside.
Lost in the memories of his tousled hair and playful smile, surprisingly it struck me in Bold Black Letters: “HE IS THE ONE”.
I love you jaan, I’m so lucky to have you <3
It’s so heartwarming to read about such a genuine and unexpected moment of connection. It’s refreshing to see how being yourself, even at your worst, can lead to something so beautiful. The way you describe the rush of energy after the call really shows how special this person is to you. Do you think this experience has changed your perspective on how important it is to be authentic in relationships?
Thank you for your kind words.
Yes definitely, authenticity is one of the bases of any relationship. The other person deserves to know how you truly are but with time, they will also get to know your potential (what you can even be) so its a fun journey.
What you’ve created here is more than just a series of words — it’s a journey. As I read through your work, I felt myself transported, not just through ideas, but through emotions and experiences I didn’t even realize I was missing. Your writing holds a mirror up to life in a way that encourages deep self-reflection, and that, in itself, is a rare and powerful gift.
Thank you so much for your appreciation.
It means a lot 🙂
This story is so relatable and heartwarming! It’s amazing how a simple, unfiltered moment can lead to such a deep connection. I love how you embraced being yourself, even when you didn’t feel your best—it’s a reminder that authenticity is truly powerful. The way you described the rush of energy after the call made me feel like I was right there with you. Do you think this experience has made you more confident in showing your true self in other areas of life? I’m curious, how did the relationship evolve after that call? It’s stories like these that make me believe in the beauty of real, unscripted moments. What do you think is the key to building such a genuine connection?
Thank you for your kind words.
Yes, absolutely. This experience has given me confidence in my personality, and I now embrace myself as I really am.
I am glad that you are curious to know how my relationship evolved, so this makes me very happy to tell you that we just completed 5 months of our happy marriage today. Stay tuned for other blogs to know more 🙂
