Dooriyan Bhi Hain Zaroori

I generally listen to songs while travelling to and back from office in the bus. I generally care only about the music and don't pay any attention to the lyrics.

Today was one of the few days when I actually was listening to the lyrics. The song playing was 'Dooriyan bhi hain zaroori' from 'Break ke baad'.

A friend and I were wondering a few days back that losing a good friend itself is a very painful experience then ending a relationship would be so much more painful. Still people do break up. What might possibly be causing them to do so?

The initial few lines of the song point out the small differences between the couple. I believe that people can make adjustments when it comes to the big things in life but it's the small things, that define what kind of a person one is, which we are not ready to compromise on and which incidentally we observe last of all, only after we've spent enough time together.

My conclusion: People break up when they realise that they are not compatible on these small things.

Your take?

Disclaimer:
1. I'm not in a relationship, never have been and by the looks of things will not be in one anytime in the near future.
2. I haven't seen the movie and have no idea what the song is about.
3. Yes, I too am capable of thinking and wonder about stuff that I have nothing to do with.

PS: This post was originally intended to be an email to my closest friends but then I thought it will be nice to see what the wider audience thinks.

Cheers
Aalok
