I am 24 years old and I live in Delhi. My girlfriend and I love each other truly. We want to get married
but our families are not accepting our love because we belong to different religions. I am working as an
engineer and she is also well-settled at work. We can’t live without each other. So, what should we do?

I am a 23-year-old guy from Cuddalore in Tamil Nadu. My parents and relatives are threatening that
they will kill the girl that I’m in love with and her family if I marry her secretly. She belongs to another
caste. My parents are not allowing me to go to work fearing that I may marry that girl. I am sending this
mail secretly. Please help me to live my life or else, I will end my life by committing suicide.

Is it my fault that I belong to a “lower” caste? I’ve been in a relationship for six years with a Brahmin
girl. Due to family drama, my girlfriend left me recently and I heard that she is getting engaged to a
Brahmin guy. But what about me and the dreams that we had of our marriage?

My girlfriend’s family is behaving violently with her because she wants to get married to me. They are
not okay with the fact that I am a Sikh and she is Rajput. I live in Canada.

My girlfriend and I were in a loving relationship for two years. We also got physically intimate. Now
she’s telling me that she will need to sacrifice her love for her family and get married to a guy that they
have chosen for her. How can she do this to me? What can I do to convince her to not spoil three lives?
She says that her parents won’t accept us since she is Pandey and I am Vishwakarma.

My family refuses to accept my husband and my son because my husband is from a “lower” caste. My
father is a Mazbi Sikh. As a Mazbi Sikh, he shouldn’t be believing in the caste system. I used to adore my
dad but his reaction to my marriage upsets me.

Maine love marriage kiya aur isliye koi family member mujhse milta nahi hai. Mere Muslim husband ke
parivaar ne bhi unse rishta tod diya kyunki mere husband ne kaha ki main mera Hindu dharm convert
nahi karungi. Isliye main unki bahut respect karti hoon.
