Q: The other day, my boyfriend called me by the name of another woman while we were in bed. I got very pissed off. But he swore he didn’t even know anyone by that name. Is it a big deal? I want you to help me get this off my mind.
A: Arey! These boys can do all these insensitive things. But my”sister from another mother” (oh well, it didn’t rhyme after all), it doesn’t necessarily mean that he’s sneaking behind your back. Let me tell you a secret. Whisper it in your ear, better still. During sex, guys’ brain powers down to the level of a monkey- a stupid monkey to be more precise. So a mental lapse leading to the blurting of a random name is hardly outside the realm of possibility. If he’s fantasizing about a celebrity or the new girl in his class, then obviously you have nothing to be thrilled about but it’s definitely not cheating either. You know what could help. One, you could concentrate on making more eye contact with him. In the likely situation that it doesn’t work , you can adopt more drastic measures. You’d prefer teasingly calling him Ranganathan or Swami in an attempt to make him realize his mistake.
Q: I’ve just come to DU and I have made a new boyfriend. But he has BO (umm down there). He looks like a bit of a hippie so I’m not sure whether he’s careful about his hygiene and stuff. I want to get this across to him politely. How should I do that?
A: I can very well imagine how big a turn off it must be for you, young lady. It’s actually a little tricky because you can’t really tell him that his private parts smell like fish, now can you. Even if you do phrase it in a little hoity-toity manner, he will be embarrassed.
Since you can’t always stick to breathing through your mouth, i shall give you some rather nice alternatives. Like you have “dadima ke nuske”. Yes, yes very much on those lines. Initially you could do with gifting him scented lotions or who knows, rub it on him yourself. Being naughty is never out of bounds! But that of course is a short-term solution and in most cases with a result not guaranteed. So try appealing to his vanity. What I mean is, try telling him how sexy groomed, trimmed and squeaky-clean guys are. I mean the hippie really has to have a hollow brain to not get a hint after this. So, don’t worry, be happy.
