my friend loves a guy for the past 4 years. he also claims that he loves her. but actually he doesnt. he feels the girl is bugging him and he has lost interest over her. but she is still crazy over him and crying almost a whole day for him. he is not a bad guy. but he feels its not correct for them to get married as they ahve difference of opinion in almost everything. he doesnt let her go to job. but her parents are forcing her.i feel that all her studies would get wasted if she doesnt work atleast till marriage. the girl would die without him. the problem is so simple.. he cant live with her and she cant live without him.. any solutions provided would be great. we friends are not able to console her. sugesstions from you are welcome...

seems to me that whatever you say to your friend will not mean anything to her since she is madly in love with her man. when you say loves a guy for 4 years..does that mean that they are actually together? and how do you know what the guy feels about her? sometimes when we are sad or mad, frustated even we get to say stuff about the other that will make our friends and family get turned off. most of the time we say what we dont mean because we want sympathy. so even if she is still in love with him, friends and family are already mad at guy making the situation worst. if in this case, the guy has really lost interest in her, has he mentioned anything about breaking up? does he still call her? do they still go out on dates? What if the guy is really busy and the girl being overly in love doesnt know her limits, will text and call even if he is at work or at the meeting. what this relationship needs is good talking. if they have been together for more than 4 years, they could have already established a relationship where they can talk about almost anything. so the guy does not want to get married..how old are they? does your friend wanna get married now? she has to talk to him about plans in the future. if the guy does not want to get married yet..then maybe they can set a date and at least ask him what his priorities are.. but if he does not want to get married at all..then you really have to tell your friend that its a waste of time. if this is the case maybe you can help keep your friend distracted. get her to go out, watch a movie with you, introduce her to new friends and find her a new hobby.

i have mailed your reply to my friend. ya they both still talk to each other...but its not sweet talks.she literally keeps crying over the phone and he will just hang up and walk away. they both even msg. but only when she sends a msg he will reply. he will neither initiate a msg or a call..they go out once in a month. but even for that this girl begs to him. he doesnt come out with interest. the problem is that they both had an affair and this girl doesnt want to marry anyone except him. so she is ready even to be his maid once he marries her and let him marry someone else too for his happy living. she just wants to see him for the rest of her life yar. she is not able to imagine a life without him.she doesnt demand anything more from him except the post of a wife.she doesnt want to live in this bad world where her protection is not guaranteed if she is not married to anyone. also she is not ready to marry someother guy.but he is not willing to marry her.she claims she will die if he doesnt marry her as she got no other option.the guy is 23yrs old and the girl is 22yrs old. they hardly have four years left for their marriage and she fears whether he would totally be out of contacts with her after four years..

honestly, im confused. i have a few questions that would like to be answered clearly when you said that they have an affair what do you exactly mean by this? does this mean that they have different boyfriends? they are not really together? i assume that this is because you mentioned something about marrying somebody else for protection? what do you mean by this? are they marrying if somebody because of citizenship or arrange marriage? is it possible that the guy has fallen in love with his current partner? before i continue with my views on this discussion, i would like to have a clear picture of the situation. thanks

Your friend needs strength so maybe you and her other girlfriends can help to make her stronger. First of all, she does not want a man who does not love her. Why waste her life in a relationship like that when there are many men she could meet in this world who would cherish her and make her happy? This is not the only guy in the world so you need to help her to see this. He has to have some faults that you can point out to her again and again to make him seem like a little less of a catch. You and your friends should take her out and do things to help to keep her mind off of this guy. Breaking up hurts but the hurt does not go on forever and how can she meet the right guy if she's hanging on to this one?
