My brother recommended I might like this blog. He was once entirely right. This post actually made my day. You cann’t believe just how a lot time I had spent for this info! Thanks!
there’s very little hope that his parents will get him married to a girl of his choice, that too of another caste..
He says if we still continue to love each other.. at that point of time if we have to separate from each other it hurts much much more.. so we better end up now.. i don’t know what to do…we both are in a great dilemma.. need help genuinely…
Hi ,
My Gf is a lingayath and im a christian. My parents have no objection to our union. But my gf parents are not agreeing. My gf has tried telling em everything, her parents are going back to saying religion is the only problem. They are more concerned about their respect in soceity then the happiness of their daughter. My gf does not want to leave me but she cannot abandon her parents as well. I cannot see her suffer cause of this . Please advise how to convince her parents. They r begging us to marry people of our parents choice in our caste and asking to be happy. Neither of us can stay happy without each other.

Hi thanks for helping. You are Amazing! Basically I been with my bf for 3years and half. My family didn’t like him but they accepted him at the end coz they just wanted me to be happy. His mom is manipulative and evil, she is been acting the first 2 years that she was happy with it when clearly she wasn’t we were about to get married so he had introduce me to her but she told him she didn’t want him to be there obviously for a reason, she was really horrible to me and nasty but I just took it didn’t say a thing to him I didn’t tell my bf either coz i didn’t want him to feel he was in btw war with 2 ppl he loves. So when the time came I found out my bf was lying to me coz he didn’t had all the things he promised basically his mom took it from him. He tried to covered it up by telling me our parents should talk about the money I told him my parents aren’t selling me and I wouldn’t do that so I had to tell my family that I wasn’t gonna get married after all. His mother called pretending like she cared she said her son is not telling her what happened and I should but politely told her I couldn’t coz i didn’t know why he refused to tell her so for that reason now she said she would disown him if he marries me and she is basically sick but exagerrating aswell. He is falling for it aswell Idk what to do like my whole life is falling apart. Please help

Hi my name jeni I’m 25yr old Christian girl from Mumbai I recently broke up with long term Tamil Hindu boyfriend xyz same age. We were in relation from past 7yrs. He was my best friend in college and later on he become close & started dating each other. There was always problem in my life form my family I was been dominating by my dad and he use to drink which I couldn’t accept & hated him for this due to which I started depending too much on bf for emotion support & happiness. We had good relation where he was always there for me and spent quality time together. He uses to take care of me, love me, and support me. He was the only person in my life and I use to totally depend on him a lot. But he never use to give me commitment for marriage which start relating problems in my life and since we were in college together we had common friends due to this all our college group broke & we all become separate & my bf use to blame me for this & he broke up with me saying his mom will never accept this relation. After we completed our Tybcom & started working his mom suffered with cancer and she pasted away and he came back to me and proposed to me for marriage & everything was ok btwn us. But few months before my family started searching guys for me for marriage and I told my dad about my Hindu bf. My dad was determined of not accepting our relation till he die and rejected him saying he is not a catholic, nor he is financial stable nor has a house so again problem came in our life . And my dad’s family, my parish priest and all my dad friends started pressuring me to leave him but I stood for him and fought with every1. Today all my relatives & family laugh & disrespect me bcz of this. But when my dad started pressuring him & his family got involve he left me saying he cannot get married now, he need to be successful & take care of his family so there is no place for me in his life. He told me to breakup & be away from him. I am in big mess no support and my family searching guys for marriage for me. I cann’t handle myself and always get upset & cry. But I am working on myself & trying hard to forget him and be happy in life. I success sometimes but sometimes I feel upset. Hope one day everything will be good in my life.

Hii my name is jenny, I’m from Mumbai. I had a bf from 7yrs whom I loved very much but my fly didn’t except our relation bcz I’m at Christian & he s Hindu. I tried evrythng to convenience my fly but they didn’t agree so I was ready 2 run wit him but he left me saying that he cannot marry me now bcz he need to concentrate on his career & his fly also is not in favor of our relation.
I am in a relationship with a guy with 10 years who was diagnosed Lymphoma 5 years ago. Now he is perfectly alright.
But my Parents are not agreeing to the marriage due to his past medical issues.
I understand their feelings but we both cant live without each other.
My parents know the family very well and they don’t have any other issues with marriage than my boyfriend’s health.
Please help me in giving some tips how can I convince my parents.
Thanks

Hi,
I need advice. I am not sure if this is the right forum but nevertheless…. I am 32 years old, working professional. Have been living on my own for 15 odd years until my mom shifted with me last year unexpectedly. I have been fighting with them about my marriage with a guy who is not from my caste for 2 years (I am the only daughter of my doctor parents) Both our families are against this alliance. However, my parents have now agreed on the condition that they won’t be involved in it. This is not what we waited for for 2 years. How do I convince them? Meanwhile, our relationship did hit rock bottom and survived somehow. Please advice.

I am a girl of 29 years fell in love with a married person rather I am married too. But both of your personal life is at mess, we met at office and fell for each other. Firstly we understood that we understand each other very well but then also I said no to his proposal as he already has a kid, and I didn’t wanted to disturb his family life. Then i stopped talking to him number of times. After around 2 years I said yes as I wanted to stay with him too. I realized we both were very happy. After about 3 months his wife is having some problem with him, now he said he needs 2 months I want to settle his family side then will be with me. He use to say he would be wid me but now he is not with me. We did not have physical relation but a relation which made both of us happy. I know I am wrong but till i miss him a lot, I was very happy Seeing us we both were happy. I am unable to understand does he really feel the pain which I am going through by not able to talk to him. I miss him a lot.

Hello,
I want to marry my boyfriend but the problem is his parent’s have fixed his marriage with his maternal uncle daughter. both our fathers are BP patient. Our cast is also not same. I even cant think my life without him. He is getting pressure from his family. And we want to do our marriage by our parents blessing only….
Please help us…..
I loved a girl from my school days.It was one sided.Her parents got transferred to a different state and we were not in touch for about a decade.
I couldnt forget her, and searched her in fb.I then proposed her, she was initially against then acceted.
As the days passed I started finding that she is not of my type.She is stubborn, not willing to stop doing pvt job after marriage, she also always suffers from thinking that she cant b wrong or why she should bow ….This nature is not good going by my temperament,as i believe whosoever is wrong must say sorry & there must b sm flexibility on doing job after marriage of mba which requires extensive duty hours……
So i dumped her 1 year back as my mind says marriage will lead to clash.
But she is still single, txt me smtime persuading fr marriage.
I cnt marry her but also cant remove her from mind fr which i cnt concentrate on other girls…..what to do???
