A Common Story

You are head over high heels in love with your boyfriend. But your father doesn't approve. Your father was okay with your trashy make-up, tacky hair coloring, and excessive plastic surgery. But this lover boy is too much.

Your father refuses to be reasonable. He won't even google your boyfriend's name to learn more about him.

"That boy is a pauper! A dastardly artist who doesn't have any global aspirations!" your dad says. Your father had such big dreams for his baby girl. But this roadsie romeo, with his weird hairstyle and flashy clothes, came and ruined that perfect picture.

So, now, you are stuck. The only solution to move your life forward? Elope.

Here is a guide that breaks down the emotionally and logistically complex process of eloping with your boyfriend into 6 actionable steps.

Step 1 - Start small

Open your locker. Grab some cash. Lock it up again.

Step 2 - Important things first.

Take your phone. Don't forget your charger.

Step 3 - Follow the checklist your boyfriend brought for you

Your boyfriend brought you a handy checklist to make sure you don't forget anything. Here is what is mentioned

    1. Pack a bag
    1. Collect your belongings.
    1. Take you ID, your passport.
    1. Credit card, pass-code.
    1. Zipper, your slipper.
    1. Your fridge te lageya sticker. (wouldn't wanna forget that in a hurry)
    1. Your glossy lipper

Packing a full bag might seem daunting. But take it easy. The nerves are a normal part of the process of eloping. After all, you are taking a huge leap of faith.

In moments like these, it helps to remind yourself why you decided to elope in the first place. Focus on what you like about your boyfriend? Do you like that he is the kind of impulsive guy who would show up at your house in the middle of the night hellbent on stealing you away - but is also organized and makes checklists?

Or do you just like him because he poisons your dogs?

Keep saying to yourself - "He is the perfect guy to trust blindly and throw all caution to the wind".

However, it is also prudent to remember to keep taking it easy. Slow down your mind. But make your physical motions quicker. You need to be out of the house before your parents wake up. Otherwise, the plan will be ruined.

Step 4 - Think outside the box

Focus on the soothing voice of your boyfriend and let it inspire you.

Pack Roti and Bhindi for your boyfriend. If you don't have the food already packed conveniently in your fridge, now is a good time start cooking a full meal for your lover.

Also, pack some high-end liqueur for your boyfriend - to help him drive better. In the pitch dark of the night.

Step 5 - Tie the loose ends

Lock your room.

Step 6 - Defy death

Successfully dodge a squad of LAPD police cars, helicopters, and missiles.

Enjoy our life estranged from your parents.

You did it!

You and your boyfriend are going to have a lifetime of love, romance, and adventure. If your idea of a romantic date is a high speed car chase and gunfire, then you are the most blessed person in the world.
