Don’t run after the wrong things

I became friends with a girl recently. But after sometime discovered that she already has a boyfriend. But we started chatting and I really liked her innocence. We started sharing everything without any inhibitions within days. She developed a soft corner for me because I told her that I have never chatted with a girl before her. We became friends on Facebook where she discovered that there’s one girl in my friends’ list. Prior to this she had mentioned that she doesn’t like guys befriending many girls. And soon after discovering this she told me that her parents are creating trouble for her and she cannot talk to me. I guess she is avoiding me. I feel bad that I lost her trust. Can you please help me?

Relationships deserve honesty

I am a 20-year-old boy in the second year of BE. During my schooldays, almost three years ago, I befriended a girl. We became good friends and used to chat regularly. But during my Class 12 Boards, I stopped using my cellphone in order to concentrate on studies. I stopped talking to her. But after joining college, I tried to get in touch with her many times. She doesn’t reply to my messages. I want to apologise. Her silence is upsetting me. What should I do?

Move on, learn to love yourself

I am a 26-year-old girl. I was in a relationship with a guy for the last six years. We belong to different castes. I’m a Brahmin while he is not. His parents agreed to the marriage easily. But I had to convince my parents. By the time they were ready, my boyfriend was not interested in marrying me. We had an intimate relationship and I even went for an abortion. Now, he says physical intimacy is not the basis nor reason enough to continue a relationship. I feel depressed and lost. He doesn’t respond to my calls. I’m unable to forget him. Please help.

Stand up, take charge

I am a 17-year-old girl doing my Class 12. I am jovial, funny and helpful. A friend of mine whom I know for a year or so is in love with a guy for the last six months. She talks only to me about their relationship. No one else knows about it. She asks for my advice/help if there is any sort of misunderstanding between them. I advise her and they settle down. Now the thing is she doesn’t talk to me after that until some other problem arises between them. I am in a situation that I can’t tell anyone about our friendship and the things that she shares with me. Is she treating me as her “best friend” or as “a stranger”? Should I talk to her about it? Is she “using me”?
Note: I am not in a relationship. I am sure they love each other sincerely and so I am helping them out. Is it wrong?

I want to begin with a little story that was told to me by a leading executive at Aptech. He was exercising in a gym with a lot of younger people.

Shekhar Kapur’s Bandit Queen didn’t make the cut. Neither did Shaji Karun’s Piravi, which bagged 31 international awards.
