He likes me, he doesnt

Has anyone here been in a casual relationship? It-s when one person is casual, and the other, is the relationship. And I am always the relationship, says comedian Urooj Ashaq in her new video, Casual Relationships that dropped this week. The 24-year-old narrates a story that is typical of the millennial dating app where casual relationships are abundant. She draws from her own experience to recreate an all too familiar scene. There-s a pattern in these relationships, where one person is looking for something different compared to the other. It-s always, -I like him- or -I don-t like him but he likes me.- Nobody is ever on the same page, she says, over a phone interview. Ashfaq believes we live in a world where everyone knows someone who is in a casual relationship, and hence will find the piece relatable even though it was recorded before the lockdown. I didn-t make changes to it. This is an experience most people have had, she says. The five-minute-long piece is one among the few that Ashfaq had recorded before live shows stopped and she may dig into the material to launch more. Since there are no stand-up comedy shows now, I thought it was a good time to put this up, she explains.
