<span class=normal>What is truly your relationship to time, are you afraid of ageing? <br> <br><p class=clear>&nbsp;</p> In my case it is the way Ive lived my life. I am still child-like by nature. It is in the genes. I believe I am a late bloomer, and Ive managed to retain my vulnerability and innocence. My mom hardly had grey hair and barely needed glasses. My dad was very active and played badminton and did yoga all his life. My paternal grandmother lived to be almost hundred. I have savla skin, which tends to age slower than fair skin. I am a simple, fun-loving, easy-going girl, with very strong middle-class upbringing. Ive always chosen to focus on the things that are in my control and never sulked or brooded when things were out of control; this really helps. Time does not feature in my scheme of things! <br><br><br><p class=clear>&nbsp;</p>Who according to you is your ideal man? <br> The ideal man is Lord Shiva - beautiful, handsome, kind eyes, graceful and a dynamic dancer. A strong, powerful force, yet gentle and tender, he exists in a variety of versions, he is equally man and woman. I wish every man tapped into his feminine side to understand women. The reason we are attracted to the other side, is because we have it within us. We just have to acknowledge that part of us. <br><br><br><p class=clear>&nbsp;</p>The one question I am often asked, why are you still single, to that I would say, if it is meant to be, it will. As long as there is life, there is hope. The truth is only I know how to woo me, so if and when I find someone who can read my mind, then... we shall see! <br><br><br><p class=clear>&nbsp;</p>Does that mean you are over men? <br> I hope not (laughs), can one ever get over nature? Without nature, there is no creation, no life. But I dont long for a relationship or consciously think about it. When nature takes its course, all will happen... or not! Either way, I am not complaining. <br><br><br><p class=clear>&nbsp;</p>What is your take on relationships these days? <br> Todays woman is much more independent, self-sufficient and confident, commanding and shares equal status in society. Let me be clear, if a man and woman really want to be with each other, they will. I believe relationships should not require effort. I always keep hearing, that it takes hard-work and open communication is demanded. I believe a good relationship should not feel like hard-work at all. It should feel effortless and natural. Some women are so consumed with the size of the solitaire or the swanky cars that they lose sight of the real thing which is mutual respect - for each others space, their profession, families and friends. <br><br><br><p class=clear>&nbsp;</p>I believe in soul-mates. Once a relationship is established, and there is love, respect and admiration, it is bound to last forever. If not, then it was never the real thing in the first place. <br><br><br><p class=clear>&nbsp;</p>Courtesy: asiaSpa India </span>
