I had some real bad experiences this week. Series of altercations with a series of people, and most of whom, either I cannot show my attitude, or cannot afford to, because of professional reasons. Infact, I did not want to even justify myself.
But, keeping oneself occupied is the only way one can avoid brooding over such pathetic experiences, which is exactly what I wish to do.
It is at these times, when this city seems really alien to me, and wish that I should not have been here.
Almost made a loss on the my derivative market transaction, when my expectation on the Nifty did not materialize. The contract would be squared off on 24th of the this month, and I still hope markets to come down, which seems unlikely.
However, I had always heard that "Men carry plenty of egos and are emotionless", and such series of incidents have substantiated it. Its just "I" factor that is important for them. Even, my dermatologist, who has been married for almost more than 7 years was saying so, as per her experience of being a married working lady.
And even my boss told me to be little less sensitive. I wonder I could have explained him the entire series of incidents. But, then, he is another man, afterall! In a way, it is good that I just smiled and left it there, rather than explaining anything.
Even now, when I am writing and thinking about the past week, I would be almost in tears. But, such reading such bad experiences once in a while make one happier in better times.
Hoping for a nice (occupied) week!

As I am also a man I may give a biased view on the men, ego and emotionless comment of yours which may well be true...I dunno abt all men but some surely do at least at times( including me, about which I have realized very recently) but I guess this should not be coupled with a rough week as a series of unlucky events may happen to anyone for a while...i hope things improve for u in the next week and the weeks after that... but i really liked the second last line of your post, may be it will make you happier in better times.. happy blogging :)
