You know what? I feel your pain bc I just had my family to turn their back on me for being with someone of another color (which is stupd) We live together and are happily in love. Everyday I wake up and look at this man and I couldn't be happier. I wouldn't know what I would have done if I hadn't left the "nest" to be with him. He told me the same thing that you told her and I thought too heavily of him so I had to have him as much as he wanted me. We fought against my family and they have finally realized that they're not going to run MY life bc they don't agree with the guy that I date. This person has never gotten in trouble and treats me like a queen. (when the other dorks were a**holes...ooh I can't say that on here can i? SORRY!) But you think about if she's willing to be with you and if you two can be with each other 24/7 and learn to be even stronger after you get in a fight. Then if she tells you she's ready, you go and get her. Don't wait a minute longer ya hear?

Hey, it's easy for you guys to say, but for people in India it's a lot harder. I don't mean to support them or go against you, but in my general view, I have noticed that people here are so hell bent on pleasing others that they forget that it's their life and they should be doing what they want rather than what others want. I have heard people break up because their uncle's grandfather didn't like the boy/girl. I'm like c'mon that old man will live for like three or four years max. You gonna live with your partner for like all life. For people in India or for Indians in general, parents decision is final. They don't even make an effort to convince their parents about it. They get married to someone whom their parents like and then suffer all life long. bourne PS; Just my thoughts, no hard feelings. I'm an Indian btw.

gosh! i never knew how Indian parents are really that strict. this situation is very hard for the both of them so i guess they should part ways... however, if they're really willing to fight for their relationship, then i guess the guy should prove himself to the girl's parents. anyways the problem is with the girl's parents and not the girl that he's having a relationship with.

wah, ur story sounds bad but i think u should fight for ur love or else u will feel regret of this i know maybe the parent is really determine to stop u two continue but i think there sure got some ways something to change the opinion of the parent toward your surname being break up of the surname it sounds a bit funny so u cant be lost of this fight u must solve the conflict of the parents. maybe before happening something that make them dislike the surname jus go to find it it is ur true love if u think then go to fight dun make urself regret no matter what the result, at least u work hard for this before

Hi there,sorry to hear what had happened to you.. But I don't get it, her parents doesn't like you because of your name? I don't understand about indian culture, but I think it's ridiculous.. *sorry, no offense :) You should fight for her.. You're in a tough situation, but you two must recognized each other feeling first.. By knowing how deep the feelings each of you have, I believe you two will get stronger and stronger facing obstacles in front.. And I think you should be patient too, it won't be easy to get into the family But love will find a way.. :) Good luck to you two Cheers !
