I am a a Hindu girl from India. I am in love with a Muslim guy. My parents are kind staunch Hindus and would not accept for such a relationship. I am in a fix, not knowing whom to give up on. I do not want to give up on either.My parents are old and I am scared if such a news would shock them to death. I am confused if I ll have to tell this at home at all... Seeking you help...

If u knew that ur parents would not approve of such an affair, why did you get involve in the first place? Try talking to your parents, i think that is the only safe solution, if your case is genuine.

I am not too familar with the culture in India and would guess that marriage is an arranged thing by the parents, or I suppose that would depend on what class your in. What does your religion say in regards to relationships outside your religion? Somehow I just do not believe that God limits us on who we love, as God would have us to love all even our enemies. In regards to you parents I can understand not wanting to cause them stress however there does come a time when you must live for youself. I would suspect that if they found out before you discussed this with them would be more difficult as they may feel betrayal. Is it not permissable for Hindus to associate with Muslims? Are you planning on converting to Islam? Perhaps you consider prayer for answers...I really do not know if Hindus pray or not, but maybe an option. Seek advice from an elder in your religion I guess would be a monk. Good luck I can understand your dilema just not sure there is an easy solution. When you say you are in love with a Muslim guy does this mean you have become intimate with him? This would even be more difficult I would suspect to break the ties if need be.
