Sanjeev Character Analysis

Sanjeev is not directly described in the story but it does state that he is from India so I would assume that he is very tall with dark skin color and black hair and brown eyes.  Being single and in his late thirty’s he has acquired quite a savings.  He works as an engineer at a firm in Hartford, Connecticut, recently finding out he could be promoted to vice president.  Sanjeev was recently married to Twinkle after knowing her only four or five months.  Sanjeev appears to be very smart in two ways.  The kind of music he listens to, being classical, shows a taste that is of high class and stature.  The other way is in the story where it states that he graduated from MIT.  Sanjeev has a very methodical and unique personality.  He is outgoing but enjoys his time alone as well.  He definitely is almost OCD about how things are organized and being neat and tidy.  The way he lives and decisions he makes are very thought out, not very free, or whimsical.  He also is not a fan of change.  Once he sees something as such, he almost expects it to be that way from here on out.  I think the things that influence Sanjeev are his Indian culture.  The food he enjoys and cooks, as well as the status he tries to achieve in society and his belief in Hinduism are all examples of this.  IN the beginning of the story he was very confident in who he was, as his life made more sense and seemed to be going smooth.  As it progresses though Sanjeev slowly starts to question key elements in his life such as the love that him and Twinkle supposedly has, wondering if he even had any love to begin with.  One important thing is that he likes making a good impression to all his coworkers and bosses even though he states he never felt like he was noticed or a real part of their group.  Sanjeev wants a steady and long lasting relationship with possible future in the future but it almost seems as Twinkle is just on the rebound or using him as long as his money lasts though she does care for him.
