My Gilfriend's friend is in deep distress, dipti (her friend's name) is in love with a boy who is a seniour of her college , they had a verry happy life until the 20th march , it was the day when dipti got campussed in a reputable company(Wipro) , a happy dipti ran to her love to give the news but to her surprise he reacted very rudely and harshly, she came to my girl friend and discused about the matter , when i looked into the matter it became crustal clear to me . Dipti's boyfriend though being a seniour could not manage a job till date and was frustrated and acted as a male-chauvinist. Now dipti is asking me for advice and so am i asking from you all, Please feel free to comment and advise.

theres nothing wrong with deepthi as far as i know from this message.but may be as a bf he feels responsible and when he heard that he might have got bit upset as people will start looking at different manner especially his friends.so he had somehting in his mind and might be distracted but theres nothing to worry as the time passes by everyhting will be fine.i can tell you this as i were a boy and i know how responsilbe a boy will feel and act acording to the situation.advice deepthi to be with him as the next turn when he gets a job look at the way he is gonna be with his gf.

There are really times when insecurities strike us..and guess that's what's all over dipti's boyfriend's mind... maybe she can just talk to him and make him understand that her getting a job ahead than him wouldn't make less a man...maybe who knows he can get a good job offer in the next couple of days? My girlfriend is earning way beyond my monthly income.. I should say my monthly earnings is only half of hers.. well, at first I did feel insecure..but later on realized after a series of talks about this matter and after my girlfriend's constant reassuring me that my earning less doesn't make her love me less, I realized maybe after a couple of moths I'd get promoted and have a raise. Almost every problem in a relationship can be fixed with some lovely and soulful talks... Godbless!

I think that he is jealous. I think she should tellhim what his actions have caused her and if he doesn't understand then she should take his actions as what they are. Anytime someone who supposably cares aboout you doesn't concern their self with your feelings, then they really don't care at all.

Well I would say he had no right to be rude and act a fool because he didn't like the news. Any good guy would be happy for their girlfriend or whatever getting a chance at a great job. More than likely he's probably only thinking about himself. She should continue on and get that job. It's not wise to stop something good because someone is trying to hold you back because they don't like it. That's my opinion on this. I hope that helped some :)

Her BF's reaction should be a warning signal for Dipti. The fact that he isn't able accept his GF-s luck tells us something about his character. I don't believe he is a very kind and nice person. What does he expect, that Dipti will give up her chance just because he hasn't get one? A nonsense. Hopefully she will not even consider to change her good job for a jobless egoistic loser.

Tell Dipti to get rid of her boyfriend (?) as soon as she can otherwise she'll be in further and greater trouble. This man, I mean Dipti's friend, deserves to be ditched. A negative character with a narrow mind. He should be delighted at the success of the girl, who loves him. But as he has a very negative and pessimistic trait he reciprocated in a harsah manner. Love is meant to inspire the partner and stay with each other in thicks and thins. But this crooked fellow perhaps doesn't know the meaning of love. If Dipti commits the mistake of staying with this fellow she is certainly heading for greater trouble in future. He'll ruin her life and career. I don't know how deply she's attached to her emotionally or otherwise still I would say Dipti to distance herself from him for her own futur and mental peace and trnquility. But its easier said than done. It'll not be esy for Dipti to forget him. Still she will have to do it deliberately. Tell Dipti to concentratre in her studies and works and socialie, make new friends so that she can gradually be able to wipe this crooked fellow from her mind.

My!!! My!!! My!!! What is wrong with her bf?!?!?!? I really hate that kind of people. Why can't he be happy for Dipti? It just shows that he's one insecure guy. Better tell Dipti not to give up that job because of her bf. She should grab that opportunity. And if she's really affected, they should have a heart-to-heart talk about this matter. Actually, it's not really a problem or an issue, it's just her bf making a big fuss out of it. I've learned that one should never GIVE UP on her/his dreams because of someone. I know it's easy for me to say this cause I'm not involved but I've been in that situation before and I didn't regret that I made that decision. In the end, it really depends on your friend, Dipti whether she will accept that job or not. I hope I did help you. Take care...;)

This is nothing but immaturity, but it is understandable. The boy probably is not sure of his own future. He could also be feeling that his relationship with the girl might not stand the pressure of this new development. A friend of mine was truly in love with a girl, but pretended that he had lost interest in her only because she had got a study offer in Russia, one that she was in two minds about taking up. The reasons for his behavior were two. 1) He did not want her to give up her opportunity on his account. There was a high probability of that happening. 2) He thought that if she did go there, the distance may prove to be too much and that he might not be able to hold on to her. She was a rather fickle minded person. In order to avoid any trouble in the future, he took this decision and pretended that he had lost interest in her. She was initially upset, but recovered quickly and went to Russia too, for her studies. He took a much longer time to fully get over her, but he is doing fine now. Sometimes, one needs to take bizarre steps to achieve something good. This could be something like that too, but more probably, the boy in question is being childish.

haha What a stupid guy. I would say, ditch the guy. He is not at all encouraging, looking at how he reacts, he is childish, immature, and also self centered. People who wallow in frustration and make people feel bad are negative. Stay clear. There seems to be a gap, between your girlfriend's friend and this guy. Hope things can change. If the guy carries on like that, ditch him. Too many guys around in the world. No need to feel sad for this bad one.

You are seeking advise from me. I'm biggest fool on this earth ( don't tell anyone ,it's a secret . only my wife and mom knows it hehehe). Well , all dipti can do is try to be with him and let him feel comfortable till he finds a job. I don't think so there is anyother way she will be able to satisfy his ego. Yes friend , it's ego only which makes all differences between loved ones. Ask dipti to behave normally and wit for him to return to his senses . It can be a long process ,if dipti is ready to wait then well and goos . Other option is forget him till he returns on his knees . even second idea is not that bad.

maybe it hit his ego that her dipti has a job and he doesnt...instead of being happy for her girl , he acted differently..i guess, the bet dipti can do is be more understanding about his emotions and give him more assurance about the relationship..also talk to him since youre the guy and tell him that sipti just got lucky to get that job and maybe he can also start searching for one instead of being rude to her..
