i REALLY wonder to see variety of ladies. Whenever I contact him he talks nicely..But, the sad part is that he always keeps speaker on. I really surprised when I heard from him. He says 'No. problem whenever and whatever I talk I always keep the speaker on so that she also knows and hears'. I told him 'is it not embarrassing? There will be so many matters starting from childhood events and experiences which we can not share even with our half partners. Sometimes being close childhood friends we talk differently even addressing ourselves. Who can I make my heart open and allow others to listen? When I discussed this with my colleagues they said 'your friend is not that old friend. But, is in the custody of his partner. That is why, his parents revealed to you their sorrow and wept like anything when you met them in their village' IS IT NOT INGRATITUDE SHOWN TOWARDS PARENTS? One can not and should not neglect parents after getting married.

Do families generally live together in India even after the children marry? I know this might be done in certain cultures and even here in the USA when children invite their parents to come live here the parents will live with their children and be the babysitters for the grandchildren if there are any. If it's common for all generations to live together that's great, but I don't see a problem if some of those getting married would rather live on their own for a while. They shouldn't completely break their relationship off from their parents though. I don't understand your first line.."I REALLY wonder to see variety of ladies". Are you saying that you'd like to meet some single women but you're concerned that they'd want to listen to your conversations on the phone like it sounds like a friend of yours allows his partner to listen? Some people and it can be both men, but usually the women that don't trust their partners and want to know what all is discussed. Maybe he allows that in order to keep the peace especially if he really loves her.

I had thought that this (living near family) was more commen in Europe than in the US. But someone (either Maluse or Lady Duck) told me that things are changing in Europe, and they are being as callous toward their elders as we (often) are in the US. I am so glad that my 94-year-old Auntie lives with her son and his wife on Long Island. I don't think she still be around (and fully functioning cognitively) if that were not the case.

I agree that one should not neglect parents. We seem to take for granted what the put into raising us. And no, I don't want to hear other peoples' cell phone conversations.
