RELATIONSHIP STATUS : Committed

There is lot of hoopla among peers. The reason is a new website, a kin of Google named Orkut. It is the usual networking website, where you share your address books and get connected with friends from other people's addresses. The site will soon be the number one dating scene (or is it already??)

Name, Age, etc etc is good. Then comes the fun part. Relationship status. Now Orkutji (lol, like AB used to address the Linux in KBC as computerji!!) gives you various options. Single, Committed, Open Relationship etc etc. There are scores of public profiles marked "committed" and i am no one to question them. It is thier life and they can do whatever they want to do. But at least respect the Oxford English Dictionary that defines commit as promise, entrust, pledge and deliver.

Now i decided to question the definition of the "committed". I have stated my relationship status as committed. Committed i am. To myself. A cause. To see myself BIG. A self made promise that i have to somehow make up for the two years that i wasted. Don't know how. But, guess have to do it. Its hard. But a little "committment" from my side will do it right?

Well, this time too, i dunno wat point i wanna make, blabbering on.

What'z thez pointz?

Hi There, A very interesting post. You know how I reached here.. well the very reason you have stated in your post "committed". One of my friend (who is a girl) recently asked me, "Are you committed".. I didnt understand, and asked her the meaning, but she didnt say anything just kept quiet.. Well I googled on committed and found this post .. And ya it is very interesting ..
I was also wondering on the same points :)).. But I am sure my friend didnt really mean this.. ;) Wish I could clarify her doubts, but she doesnt seem interested now... :)
