A “make” believe world

We have all heard of “make love”, the supposed slow and sensuous form of having sex, been unfortunate or fortunate enough to witness someone “making out”, unfortunate cos we are never the one, it is always some other lucky bitch or bastard, fortunate ‘cos that way u get to catch some action in real life. If you belong to the species called fairer sex you would be only too familiar with the so called make-up, stuff that you spend enough time applying only to realize that u have to spend twice the amount of time to peel off. Even if you are not a woman, you would still know it, 'cos it would have been the very reason u missed that all too interesting first scene of the movie.
But there is this newly coined word, which I heard for the first time in an e-mail sent to this all too pretty friend of mine, “make friendship”. I might be sounding very sexist in my generalisation, but it is a phrase used only by the menfolk, and a very silly one at that. All you men out there are waiting to rage your battle against me! I can see that coming (No that was no typo!).

Coming back to the topic in q, How do you “make” friendship in the first place? What exactly did he mean when he said it? Was it a mistaken reference to make love? But wouldn’t it be too much to be asking for in the very first mail that he had sent to this mind blowing beauty and remember the guy in all probability would be this totally quiet, shy, non existant person. So possibility 1 ruled out. Ok the man spots the beauty, was taken in by her extremely good looks, was swept off his feet in all of 30 seconds and then decided to ask her if the two of them can make this lifelong, platonic, totally out of the world, best of friendship, haan? Is he willing to go to that extent for the fleeting 30 second glimpse? Naaa! Agreed my friend is this real nice girl and beautiful, and has this amazing figure, and is really intelligent and is quite smart and is really capable of managing a whole household and 2 dogs but he could not have known all of that in 30 seconds. The world of men is so weird and they call us the weird lot. Phew Whew!
Neways, I shall proceed towards “making” dinner…….

Umm..yes once u are sucked(no pun mind u) into this it just goes on forever...

The phrase make up had whole new dimensions added while at college. It referred to those not so original tests taken when poor souls were rendered unfit to write the original thanks to such fatal illnesses ranging anywhere from Common cold to whooping cough. Mind u we made the most of them ;)
