'Everything has to be spelled out to guys'

Dear Shirish,
What’s wrong with guys these days?! They are getting dumber by the day! Is it because of excessive gymming and steroids? They just don’t understand the meaning of the silence of women anymore! Everything has to be spelled out! Are there any guys left who understand the silence of women?

Miss Feminist,
Go for a guy with a cat. Only he will understand your silence.

Kuch toh log kahenge!

Dear Shirish,
There is good news and bad news. Good news is my wife and me are expecting a baby. Yay! Bad news is my wife has suggested that I take leave from work to take care of our baby instead of her. Her logic being that her salary is much more than mine (actually, more than double), and if she leaves her work, we will lose out on much more money. And with the baby, we really need that money now. Although her logic is absolutely correct, I’m worried about what will people say. Won’t they laugh at me? Won’t it be shameful for me? What is your opinion?

'I’m a bathroom singer'

Dear Shirish,
Whenever I’m having bath and singing in the bathroom, my family and friends say I have a great voice and appreciate my singing. But when I sing the same outside the bathroom, my family and friends don’t like my singing. They say, I sound horrible. I’m the same person and sing in the exact same way. I don’t know what goes wrong. Not like our bathroom has some amazing acoustics; it’s just a basic bathroom. The recording for my single is coming up. I’m worried and have no confidence to sing outside the bathroom anymore. What should I do?

Dear Bathroom Singer,
Record in the bathroom.

'Lift mat kara de!'

Dear Shirish,
I work in a multinational company in Mumbai. The liftman in our office building has a huge crush on me. He goes out of his way to accommodate me in the lift. He even blocks other people out so I can travel solo in the lift. Must say, I find it cute and enjoy the royal treatment. I even smile back to him as a reward. But I am worried, hope he isn’t in love with me and expecting anything more. I obviously can’t be seeing a liftman. That too, in my office premises. Should I tell him not to expect anything more from me? What if he is madly in love with me and can’t handle it and commits suicide or something?
Neha

Dear Neha,
Don’t worry about him. No one has seen more ups and downs in life than a liftman. In all probability, it’s just a crush and he will be happy with your smiles. But if you are really worried, avoid the solo trips in the lift.
