Everyone has a moustache. Yes, even women. Because you know what, a moustache is not a man's prerogative. Some women love it, some get it waxed, some get it lasered, and some just bleach it. What do I do? I fall in love with it more and more.

Let me clear out one thing here--it's not related to body positivity. It's simply about the fact that my moustache, or my ladystache, is my one true love. It has been with me through thick and thin (pun intended)! I heard "mooch nahi to kuch nahi" way back in childhood, and since then it has been the mantra of my life.

So here goes the ode to that one friend who has never left my side. Yes, I am still talking about my 'stache.

Dear moochie (can I call you that?)
You came to me when I hit puberty, a time that wasn't easy on any one of us. I was going through a hormonal hell, and well you, you my friend were looked at with disgust by none other than me. But, you still stood by me and made sure your presence was felt. You knew my mother wouldn't let me go to a parlour that young, so you just grew and grew.


You Gave Me and My Lips Company
I got lonely growing up, because I was a single child. I had no one to play with at home. None of my crushes ever paid attention to me either. But you dear moochie, you never let me feel that I was all alone.

Each time I ran my finger on you, you reassured me that you were there, listening and understanding all my worries.

Even Though I Abandoned You at a Salon Weekly, You Came Back to Me
They say "If you love someone, let them go. If they come back, then they are definitely yours." Moochie, my love, you are the living testament to that. No matter how many goodbyes we have said to each other, you have found your way back to me.

Even When My Friends Made Fun Of You, You Never Left
Nothing perturbed you. Even when my guy friends mocked you saying that their moustaches aren't as big as you, you had zero f*cks to give.

You Have Proved That You're As Stubborn As Me
I have lost count on how many times you came back within a week of me breaking up with you. You proved that you are stubborn and completely obsessed with me, because you kept coming back when I didn't want you to.


Dear moochie, you have seen everything I have been through. And I take our relationship very seriously. After all, it's the longest one I have had after my mother.

I don't care what the world thinks of you, because we are meant to be together--forever!
