I've not been in a live-in relationship. But I've been exposed to various kinds of equations that can exist between people. When I came from Bangalore, it was black and white.

There are three kinds of people and three kinds of richness: - people who want to have, to collect - people who want action, work and labor - people who want to be The real richness is in be-ness.
