Later in life they run into each other, and the woman -- who is still in the same mindset -- makes a startling discovery about the man she turned down...
A poor boy was in love with a rich man’s daughter.
One day the boy proposed to her and the girl said, “Hey! Listen, your monthly salary is equivalent to my daily expenses. How could this ever work out?
Why would you even think this is a consideration? I could never love you, so forget about me and get engaged to someone else of YOUR level.”
But despite her resistance, the boy couldn’t forget her so easily.
Sometime 10 years later they stumbled into each other in a shopping mall.
“Hey! You! How are you?” She said. And started spinning the same tale: “It’s been a while, but I’m now married with a husband whose salary is $15,700 per month! Can you beat that? He’s also super smart.”
He felt his eyes watering with tears on hearing those words from the same lady….
A few seconds later, her husband came around. But before the lady could say a word her husband, upon seeing the guy, said
“Sir! You’re here! And I see you’ve met my wife…”
Then he said to his wife, “This is my boss in who owns the $100 million project I’m working on! And do you know something my dear? He once loved a lady but he couldn’t win her heart….That’s why he has remained unmarried since. How lucky would that lady have been, if she had married him now? These days, who would love someone that much” he said to his wife.
The lady looked in total shock but couldn’t utter a word….
Final Words: Life is so short and it’s just like a mirror. You can only see as much as it reflects. So don’t be too arrogant or proud by looking down on others because of their current situations. Things get changed with time just like the weather..! Don’t underestimate anyone because everyone has a different story!
