Boys, let’s just say it’s that time of the year when things don’t seem to be going great for you.

On the one hand, you may really want to get out of the house to avoid all that Indian festivity vibe you’re getting from all corners, and on the other hand, there’s the danger that is lurking right out there, draped nice and pretty in a thread!

If things to were considered in all seriousness, you probably never would have stepped out of the house, or taken your head out of the buried shelter under the pillow.

But you are back in the real world now, and if some things need to be taken care of, then you simply need to man up and face it.

Yes, the dangers are still lurking out there, but with a little planning, you can actually save yourself and get away from the one that should not be named.

Don’t know how? We can help.

Start The Day Early, Especially If You Have To Go To Work

If you’re trying to hide and spend as much time indoors before you are kind of forced to go out, change the strategy right away. The fact is, this is a day when people will be really busy with the traditions and whatnot, and most of that will take place in the first half of the morning. To avoid being seen at such an inopportune moment by someone you kind of love, and getting stabbed in the heart by that potential dhaaga she may tie, run for your life and reach work fast. By the way, it’s a Sunday, and if you’re still working on a Sunday, we have double sympathies for you.

Be Absolutely Unavailable

Your office hottie may call you up to ask for help with something she is facing, but no matter what name or number pops up on the screen, do not answer. Boys, the key here is to stay determined. If you think you can do it, you probably will be able to do it. So, even if you feel you’re getting tempted to answer the call or go and help, hold your emotions and stay away and aloof (you can always make it up to her the next day!).

Keep Your Poker Face On

Enough of fooling around and smiling and laughing at her jokes and all that cuteness. When the D-day approaches, bid adieu to all your emotions right from a few days in advance, and make sure you act as if you’re just waiting to bite (not in a good way) the moment someone comes near.

Your safety is in your own hands – literally. So be smart, be careful, be safe.
