I today learnt about this god knows what "Law of Diminishing Marginal Utility", it
claims that more the quantity lesser the want for the given...!!! And pretty much
contested through the years, this law seems to have been holding ground.. Or should I
say.. No one could break this law yet...! Wierd though.. Anywez.. So I thought why not
apply this established theory to one of mans most incomprehensible phenomena..
LOVE...!
Straight forward.. One remembers the first kiss than the 264th one.. Gals
remember the firts boy friend more than the 178th one...! [Do they????].. But that
would be plain mundane application of the theory.. what makes it even more facinating
is the aftermath of the so called love that has happened...!
Cutting the crap [atleast for me].. What follows is as some believe a
wonderful period of romance.. passion.. sensuality etc.. etc.. and then all of a
sudden.. no matter what may prevent.. a slag sets in [As many claim.. They Never Lived
Happily Ever After...!]. The guy starts looking at the girl as a liability [Both in
financial terms as well as mental strain terms..!] and the gal starts looking at the
guy as the ATM which works on kisses and cuties...!
The cupid pain of the arrows of cupid suddenly start paining more than ever
before...! The cost or effort eachother were willing to pool in for each other starts
going down and down and down...!
The phone calls no longer last for hours together... The night strolls
together get shortened to lesser than the time spent in loos...! And so goes the
story...
The theory tells that as this goes on.. The value becomes at one point 0..
That is they both would not be ready to pay any price or effort or time for each
other...! Is there a way to improve this free fall...! Yaype... And economics tells
that you have to either reduce the price or increase the value proposition...!
Hey.. How do i bring down the price...! Well.. They say - Once upon a time my girl used to wait for me for hours during
dates.. and now she shouts if I am late even 5 mins..! Thats the wake up call my
friend.. The price she is willing to pay is just 5 min.. so be there within 5 min -
Else.. you know the consequenses..
And the value???That could be tough... earn more...! Well other wise.. start washing your gals
clothes...! Oh yeah...! I forgot this disclaimer telling that.. the article is unisex and male and
female can suitably apply their brains to find the cost and value yourselves...!
