We all have cousins, from chacha ka beta, tau ki ladki, masi ke beti and so on. Some of them are close, the other ones are probably the ones we only meet at a family function! But nevertheless, we share a special bond with them. The funniest part is that they are the benchmark of success and the yardstick of excellence with which we are judged by our own parents, so they are important!
Today, on Raksha Bandhan we take a look at the different types of cousins we all have. And If you are not already with them, how about reaching out to all of them?
Being the chatterbox of the family, she will know everything about everyone! So, if you want to know something, you know whom to call!
She was a topper in the boards. Oh, she also got through UPSC, she manages to do household chores as well!
"Be like her"- Every parent
He is that one elder cousin who lives a perfect, joyful life and doesn't give a damn to what others say! The soul of each of the family gathering, he's the heartthrob of the family!
She would probably not even say Hi to you! With her, the room will always be quiet since she will not utter a word! Things get really awkward with cousins like these, don't you agree?
He is the one ideal cousin who is extremely responsible and is loved by almost all the elders in the family. You can best find him touching the feet of some random guest in the family. He is also usually given the responsibility of keeping you in line.
Now, these types of cousins are mostly the most interesting ones! Pursuing the career of their choice, going places with their friends and living their life in the best possible way, often they are called as "Awaara-baccha" by the elders. You will always get the most honest piece of advice from them, but beware your parents won't really like your bonding with them!
Now, you must have heard people referring to their friends as, "the-extended-family", but these bunch of cousins who are of your age will be your "extended-friends" with whom you can share most of your secrets. They will be all ears when you're in trouble and surely they will be your best squad to plan a trip together!
