2 years

in last week of december i was confronted with the questions from my better half as to when do we tie the knot.. i had pondered abt it a lot.. even talked to dips abt it when she was here.. i realised tht it wud take atleast 2 years for me to do the same.. waise toh both of us dun want to stay apart as we have known each other now for 4 and a half years and nothin is hidden from each other... we know each other's thought process, feelings.. still we do fight and that's a very good thing i believe [:)].. anyways back to my topic of 2 years.. my funda is that i want to have enuf corpus of money before i marry to lead a happy life.. i dun feel good when i have to say no to her for something...or evev can't committ that i will get her some jewellry when she asks that whether i will gift it to her or not.. abhi, the earnings are not much to have a great savings.. even i am not yet stable in my job.. it's a function of both my role which has not yet found a sync with me and the organization which doesn't pay at market rates... thus i hope tht by the end of year 2008, i might be able to make the right shift internally or externally.. in addition, living costs in mumbai are a nightmare.. rental costs can wipe out ur salary if u want to stay in south bombay i.e. near to your office to avoid the train journey.. thus i want that both of us work and save enuf to help us in sustaining a good life... i hope she understands me.. however, there wud be pressure from her parents side as well as mine... a reason which cud play major factor wud be her age as her parents wud think it from that angle and i think tht she also might have this concern in her mind.. i just want to be stable in life before committing anythin.. tht is all i have to say.. i rest my case..
