Bhaveen Sheth, the writer of this blogpost writes on the lack of understanding or to put it as misunderstanding that people have about singles in India. Indian society makes its own presumptions and takes us for granted. So here, I state ,why people do not understand us?
People don't understand.They just don't understand the trials and tribulations that we (singles) have faced. They just don't understand the battles we put on everyday in living a single life.They just don't understand our loss, grief and suffering. They just don't understand that we lost our parents, that we come from dysfunctional and separated families. They just don't understand that we grew up in an atmosphere devoid of love and affection.They just don't understand that we are products of fractured parenting.They just don't understand the countless solo nights and solitary evenings we spend dreaming for a better life.They just don't understand that our own birthdays and religious festivals have stopped being of any importance to us.They just don't understand the emotional deprivation we undergo.They just don't understand on how hard we tried to be a part of the Indian society and how we were debarred.They just don't understand the inner demons we battle everyday.
There is plenty to write on the lack of understanding that people have for us, but I will stop my writing here.I hope that single people who come from similar backgrounds will empathise with this.
This is Bhaveen Sheth signing off for the day, will be back will be a lot more.
