A Guide For Girls In Love Poem by Akhtar Jawad

A Guide For Girls In Love

Rating: 5.0


A man who is never sentimental,
Always discussing philosophy and ethics,
Always busy in business dynamics,
And not admires you when you're emotional,
Is merely a book to be kept on the shelf,
Not for reading by your loving self,

A man who is always sentimental,
In a minute he is happy and cross in the next,
Is a write on computer an editable text,
Carefully handle him, may be too fatal.
Treat him like a child and keep him busy,
Better you get rid of this man so fussy.

A man who is sentimental only sometimes,
Understands your emotions and knows you well,
Stands by you in paradise or hell,
Suits to you like beautiful rhymes.
May be your partner for the whole of life,
Love him, marry him, be his wife.

A very wise and interesting advice for girls of marriagable age! Given a choice all girls would like to marry a person who understands sentiments of wife and who is not too materialistic , too philosophical or too sentimental.But where is the choice for girls?

So true, my poor mother in law died wishing her husband had been a little loving and sentimental. A man must have a balance as you so wisely point out here.
