Hi, I’m a Hindu boy might be 17 years old deeply in love with a Muslim girl. In our love we both have faced and sacrificed a lot. I can say death is the only thing I didn’t faced. She faced death 2 times for me. She is so brave, but couldn’t hurt her parents. She did so many things to save me from problems, but problem is that now we are together just for 2 months. Then we might not be able to meet again. Our love is great, it’s over a year of our love. We meet every day as we study in same class but I have still not touched her once. Not even once.
I’m ready to do anything for her. Please don’t tell me it’s not our age.
And yeah we both have accepted each other. We have nothing to do with our religion. She would follow Islam and I would follow Hindu.
We both can do anything but just need help. How to convince parents? We don’t want to hurt them
Once, my parents came to know about it. They were very angry. Tried to suppress us and now believe that I forget her
But our love grows deep each day. Please suggest how to convince parents (she comes from strict family where burkha and scarf is compulsion but I like to see her in that form only so I have no problem with it.). Thanks for reading, its shows you care.

Are you willing to give up your religion to be oppressed as a Muslim? Or is she willing to become a Hindu? I'm willing to be YOU are the one expected to change and not her.
THere are so many things that can go wrong here that will be bad for you its hard to know where to start.
And you WILL be upseting parents... and parents are very important...

Yeah I know parents would get upset please suggest some way..
When its about religion nor do I want her to change or neither does she want me to change.
As I said we both accepted each other might be its her innocence in scarf that made me love with her.and its" the hindu boy" she says with pride abot me... So no change of religion... pls suggest something different... and thanks for advice.

Oh.. just so you didn't misunderstand me... in every case I've ever heard of between a Muslim and any other faith, the Muslim never changes and always at some point pressures the other person to change. That really bothers me deeply. As long as YOU won't change or be expected to chage ever... then that's cool.
As far as convincing parents? I don't think that's going to happen.. they have enough life experience to see the problems.. and I just mentioned only one of them.
That is going to be the MAJOR issue with HER family... I'm sure yours will see it in much the same way knowing YOU are going to be pressured into doing it... eventually.
Yeah its easy to say that now... but the reality is its still going to happen despite your bet intentions.. and sometimes a dream is only a dream. Reality has a way of getting in the way of dreams every day.
She might really be a nice as you say... or as the saying goes... beware of the wolf in sheep's clothing (for the sake of discussion I will assume she IS really as nice as you say). You may live in the same country... but you both are from very different cultures. And that will cause friction despite your best intentions.
I think this is part of the objections from both sets of parents.
They have something you both lack at this point... life experience. And when we are younger we have a different perspective of life because we lack it... eventually of course we quickly learn things are rarely ever what we expected.. and we usually have to do things we aren't happy about.
That may seem like I'm rambling on and about different things... but what I am meaning is its all of these things that shape how your parents feel about things. And to change their minds you would have to change the reality of all these things.
That will be a very difficult at best and maybe even impossible to do. And your parents are very important part of your life... even as an adult. And if either set of parents doesn't like either or you it will forever cause problems... and trust me... I speak as someone who has dealt with animosity between my spouse and my family for over 20 years.(whos fault doesn't matter).. and it does wear on you.
In just a few words... there is no easy way to convince them. Its going to be very difficult and will likely fail. But you won't know unless you try.
(I base this on several Indian families I've known as well as a couple Muslims Families I've known)

In my experience.. the best way to win your dreams.. is to find a girl whose parents like you, and your family , and that you and your family likes them.
If you don't... this is going to forever limit your happiness in the future. And from my experience... unless you have seriously considered and dated enough women... the first girl you think is so good and so perfect, you will find is very much NOT what you thought she was.
And until you have dated enough.. you will not know how good the right woman really can be.
The first person everyone has dated at the time seemed like the perfect partner for life... as time goes on and we date others, we understand how wrong we were in the beginning.
And when you do eventually find the right person... there won't be all these problems.
I am so very glad I didn't marry the first girl I dated seriously... I would never have known how good it could be if that was all I had to base it on.

right ...but its not my first love.... May b 4 or5th .....so think she is the best...whosoever sees her...first of all congrats me and says that i m too lucky to have this princess.
I have to ask.. how old are you know... How long did you know these other girls? Unless you are in your LATE 20's or older... those were infatuations... not loves. Infatuations don't count.. real long term loves are way different.
There is a huge difference between lust and love... what you have been feeling is lust... driven by hormones and not your mind... and the basic fact you said you would "do anything" tells me you are thinking with the little head (in your pants) and not the big head (on your shoulders)... and that will ALWAYS get you in trouble. And if you are thinking you will "do anything" tells me you are looking past the important stuff to see the unimportant stuff... beauty fades... if there isn't true compatibility and understanding there... you will find yourself in a bad place in a few years.
Lust fades over a year to three years... real love doesn't even start to grow until then, and then only if there is something real there. Otherwise you are nothing by roommates that share a place with a piece of paper that says you are married..
If there was real love you wouldn't feel a need to "do anything for her" . Those words carry a much deeper meaning that what they appear.

No words for you......thogh thanks... How can i know that i m in love
When you aren't in a huge rush to be with them... when you don't feel a need to prove anything for them. Its actually a very difficult thing to describe.
A lot depends on how long you have been together... if you haven't been together for very long.. its lust not love.
If you have been together for 3 years... and you feel the same way.. then it is most likely love... Lust is strong very quickly... but it slowly fades as you get to know each other... it takes over a year to do that. When you have been together that initial strong urge to be together will fade... as you get into year two and year three when you really get to know each other you will be liking each other for your personality.
During lust.. you are always on your best behavior trying to do things you each believe other would like... this is not natural... and you can't do it forever... by year 2 and three you behave how you naturally are... without pretending to please the other... you both get to know how the other person really is... this is important because THAT is the person you will be living with... not the person you first met that was always pretending to be on their best behavior.
If you both are meant for each other... when you are at that point and you see how each other really is like... you will love them for being that way. You won't want to "do anything" because being yourself would be enough. And when you see how she really is... you will see what makes her angry, and what she enjoys... but you need several years to see each other in this way. THEN and only then... if you are really that comfortable with each other when romantic thoughts AREN'T in your minds... meaning you enjoy being together without having to kiss or need to have sex. Because that is such a small part of being married... MOST of your lives you will not be doing romantic things... routine and boring things... and its important you are happy with that part MORE.

I can't help, I HAVE to say this,, you are too young,, is this love or infatuation, u'l not know now,, your feelings for her is understandable,, and I appreciate that you have not made a physical move on her yet,, that's a good sign,, but at this age,, when you have the least responsibilities, you get confused with love and infatuation.
U are under your parent's roof and as long as you are their responsibility, you have no option but to listen to them.
M sure you will not like this, but I suggest you wait till your 21, finish your education, get a job and only then take your relation further. If she can wait for you until then, well and good, but, if her parents force her to marry someone else, all you can do is request them not to,, unless you have a VERY good job, you are helpless,,
Think about it, u marry her while you haven't finished your studies, and your jobless, what will you do? How will you take care of her? Where will you live?
Once your on your own feet, there is no force on this earth that can oppose u,, u will be responsible and will be able to face your parents and hers too,,
Take life seriously,, u asked for my help right? Take me to be your internet-akka/didi/sis and trust me,, I will help you in every way possible,,
in every case I've ever heard of between a Muslim and any other faith, the Muslim never changes and always at some point pressures the other person to change.
Absolutely right,,

... and got to know that somebody told about our relations to her mom, though one of mutual friends of ours handled the situation... bt now one would be screwed up... I hope its not her.

If in future you face a situation where you need to face her parents or yours,, be confident,, be brave, tell them you want to live your whole life with her and for that your struggling now, struggling to be a good in studies so that you have a bright future with her,,
I know what feelings you have in your age,, only if your serious about her, continue the relation,, else, let go,, usually guys never get serious until they are 25,, my heart was broken when I was 20, by a 24 year old guy,, I know how badly it hurts,, hence the suggestion,,
You will get over her...everyone does...then you will find the next one is even better.
Never support break-ups as if it's a game,,
smoothy

never support break-ups as if its a game,,,
Why not... its EXACTLY what many people need to hear, and needs someone to tell them... mostly people who lack the life experience to see when they are in a situation that isn't a good one. And most people are like that when they are younger.
And incidentally... how old are you? How many relationships have you had in your life so far?
I'm 51... I didn't get married at 18... I've dated a lot of women from a lot of different countries and lived on two continents as an adult... I've seen too many people stay with the wrong people for the wrong reasons and end up divorced shortly after, I've even been one of those people who stuck with someone far longer than I should have.
I've got plenty of reason to advise someone to walk away from a relationship. And I have no fear of doing so. And the OP needs to walk away from this one. For a number of reasons, not just one or two. He can do better... and when he does... his life will be much better then it can be with this one.
I've had several people that I ran into after many years tell me they were sorry they didn't listen to me when I gave them advice to walk away from someone... usually after they ended up divorcing them after getting married... and for the very same reason I warned them about.
One woman in particular I ran into 20 years after I last saw her... told me exactly that... I told her.. she went and got married anyway... and the next few years were pure hell for her before she walked away... but not before a child was involved. About 15 years after and remarried... and she thanked the advice I gave her many years earlier because she evaluated everyone she dated before she finally met the right guy.
People that listen might never now how bad it could have gotten... but the ones who don't, usually learn the hard way I was right. But not before wasting years they will never get back.
WHen I was very young long before most people even thought of getting a home computer (back when they were still worthless toys) and even longer before most people even heard of the internet.. I wish someone had given my the advice to walkk away from a relationship. I came about my extensive knowledge on the topic the hard way... I was through it.
You might think it's a game... but don't accuse ME of treating it like one.

Siver and smoothy please stop fighting... today her parents came to school.. bt as she didn't talk I don't know what is going to happen...
I think I need to tell you wholething
.. in class I might be the ugly guy...
But a very straight,honest ,simple and comedian.
As I told I have enough exeperiences... In class whether my friends or orthodox girls all take advice from me.. there are some queens in our class who don't talk to anybody... but they are also open to me.
And my love.. what to tell she is the moat beautiful,friendly talktiveand simple... even my best friends had crush on her..
It all started nov.2011 when I was in deep attraction with a girl named a*. I took help of my friend named c2 who was also muslim but my bestfrnd... she helped me a lot to talk to a*. But then I came to know that c2 loved me.. but to find me happy she scarificed and helped me for a*.
In dec my diary was caught by parents.they misunderstood and complained in schhool that I and c2 were in relation.. all problems rained on me... when c2 came to knew this she was so feared that she fell unconscious and nearly was the case of coma. Thanks god she was saved that day. She is emotionaly very sensitive. I had to handel her but can't talk to her.. she came told me that if I didn't talk to her,she would again go to coma. We laughed together.. this the time we came closer.. I was just amazed how could shs do this much for me ?
And my heart went on her. But she still forced me to propose a*.
She talked to a* and next day told me that a* was also in love with me... I told her my emotions.
And we were together.
Had to face many problems but she stood with me...
Hey SMOOTHY One of my very close friend advised me to move on. My friend told me that though I was in love with her I should move on bcoz further in life we might not be e allowed to live together,and she would have to face problems in life. She told me its better to have one in life than having one very far...
I thought she was right so I just told c2 to break up.. She was in tears... though I became tough..
Told her that I was in love with a* and was playing a GAME WITH HER. I'm a boy who never ever thought to play game. I hate all this.. But had to do so.
She didn't trust my stories... so I stop talking to her for a weeek in feb. 2012
And I was horrified... when my best friend slaped her in class. As it wss recess mostly all were out. She was committing suicide.
Half her hand was cut by her.
My friend snatched the blade and somehow contolled the BLOOD.
I WAS JUST SHOCKED...
Soon I told her truth that how much I love her.. After that many ups-downs bt we never fight . Always she forgives my mischives.
... today its again , problem came... but this time on her side... I don't know what should I do?
Silver how could I stand beside her when she doesn't talk to me.
And smoothy please tell me something I cant... leave her..
After the matter of her try cmmiting suicide... I told her wholething and asked for SORRY.
She just smiled and told me 'no need of sorry... and thanks for loving me'... she was so happy... she smiling wholeday... I cursed myself'' how could she act so nicely after all this... and how could.I do such a cheap thing to this girl''

If she is trying to commit suicide when you really don't have a real relationship... she needs to see a doctor... Really... there is something going on inside her you or I don't know, its very wrong and needs someone trained in psychology to help her.
If you ever could live together is a matter of your local culture... and I do believe in some places your lives could be threatened.. while other places nobody would care... you have to consider what your local culture is willing to accept.
I speak in terms that do not consider religion... I would give this same advice to anyone. The religious problems involved here are significant and makes the problems worse.
I also know how strong you think first loves are... it takes time and experience to see they really aren't. From your teens to your early 20's its your hormones driving you more than your brain. That's why its so easy to make mistakes and bad choices. In many cultures its taught from a very young age to show hospitality to strangers... but when you are no longer a stranger.. that sweet disposition can turn into a very ugly one in private.
I know it sounds easy for me to say you will forget her if you do move on to someone where you don't have these problems with family. But understand I am speaking as someone who has done this before.many times in fact. You do get over it soon enough... and it does hurt at the time... but it does build character. If you understand what that means... it helps you become a more mature adult. Many times we have to make choices we don't want to make, but that we have to make because its better to do it... even if they are not pleasant.
Having said that consider this... imagine her getting like this every time you come home late from work? Or if she sees you talking to another woman at work she doesn't know? And she threatens to kill herself or something else... being sensitive ENOUGH emotionally can be a good thing.. but like everything being too much of it is a very bad thing.
And above all... more than you might imagine now... if you do something that defies one or both of your parents... it will make life much less enjoyable... and maybe even very much worse. And trust me.. as a man who's wife shows little respect towards my family... it has negatively effected how happy I can be. These things WILL become important when the initial lust wears off... and things become routine... and without the support of both families.. you won't be nearly as happy as you think you will be.
And I myself have stayed in several relationships long after I should have walked away... I have seen many others who have as well. That's why I WILL tell someone to walk away if something isn't right. There are almost 7 billion people on earth... roughly half of them are women... and no two are alike. Nobody should have to fight to make something work that has many problems. If I can prevent someone else from making the same mistakes I made in my youth... I feel I have helped someone.

Oops! You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to smoothy again
Seems you have given your young heart to one that is not that emotionally strong or healthy. It's a tough situation for young people who have little or no control over their situation or wishes, and must obey the boundaries of your parents.
Obey the boundaries of your parents and temper the love you profess with common sense and the reality of your situation. Stop letting guilt or helplessness or pity be mistaken for concern and make you make bad choices, like lying.
I mean is it really a healthy thing to do this public suicide stuff over a failed young love? She cries for attention from you and goes to extreme to get it. Sorry guy, you cannot help her, hopefully her parents can. Let them, its not your problem, nor should it be.
You are WAY over your head here.

Chandu, u should have mentioned this before,,
Seriously, take the gal to a psych,, this is not love, this is insane,, like Talaniman said, she is not emotionally strong.
Since there is so much emotional involvement (I mean suicidal) from her part, it's better you talk to her parents directly,, act matured,, tell them the situation,, let them know how their daughter is reacting to break-up,,
If today she is trying suicide for break-up, tomorrow she might try a different stunt to get what she wants...
I don support flirting/break-ups/affairs but certain relations are not meant to be forever,, this is one of them,,
True love happens just once in your life,, the rest are just lessons,, but don take every relation to be a lesson, if you do,, u will never learn,,

You won't know when Right is really "Right" unless you have had a few relationships under your belt. At the time most people think their first few relationships where "The One" and perfect... after they have had a few most are EXTREMELY happy they weren't still with those people. Some things really are universal across cultures. And one of those are you aren't going to have a great life with someone if they aren't sufficiently compatible with you.
You can't ignore it forever, and you can't make people change to suit you.. and you can't change yourself either to that degree. In effect, just because you CAN do something doesn't mean you should.
Sure its going to hurt when a relationship ends for any reason... but do you know what... you get over it and you grow emotionally from the experience. Life is full of trials and tribulations... those are the least of them. At least you have some control over those situations.
Think its hard getting dumped by the other person? Wait until one of your parents dies (I've lost a parent). Wait until one or MORE of the people you were dating dies in an accident.. (I've lost two girlfriends in traffic accidents, no I wasn't there). Getting dumped by someone who realised you weren't right for them before you reliesed they weren't right for you is nothing compared to that.
Settling for whatever you can get in a hurry is never better than waiting for the right person.
You can learn to live with someone you truly aren't excited about... but that is more like a roommate with benefits arraingement than it is a marriage based on love. YOu can learn to be friends with anyone... but nothing can make you love them.
As it might be obvious... I am very much opposed to arrainged marriages for that reason... but this does not appear to be one of those.

Sure its going to hurt when a relationship ends for any reason...but do you know what...you get over it and you grow emotionally from the experience. Life is full of trials and tribulations....those are the least of them. At least you have some control over those situations.
Think its hard getting dumped by the other person? Wait until one of your parents dies (I've lost a parent). Wait until one or MORE of the people you were dating dies in an accident..(I've lost two girlfriends in traffic accidents, no I wasn't there). Getting dumped by someone who realised you weren't right for them before you reliesed they weren't right for you is nothing compared to that.
Settling for whatever you can get in a hurry is never better than waiting for the right person.
You can learn to live with someone you truely aren't excited about...but that is more like a roomate with benifits arraingement than it is a marriage based on love. YOu can learn to be friends with anyone...but nothing can make you love them.
As it might be obvious....I am very much opposed to arrainged marriages for that reason...but this does not appear to be one of those.
I lost my daughter,, she died in my arms (literally),,
I lost 2 childhood friends one after the other... I was in love with one of them,,
My fav cousin died in front of me in the hospital...
I know what losing a loved one means,,
But this is not we are talking about,, the subject is breaking up,, I suggest you reply to the point rather than jumping to a different topic,, losing someone due to death and breaking up are 2 very different things,,
Some find love easily, some need to be hurt, but once your hurt, it doesn't mean you have to keep looking for-ever, its as good as NEVER to trust and always to look for that special someone... its better to love someone who loves you back rather than keep looking your whole life,,
I understand what you might have been through and why you are suggesting different than me,, we both have had different lives and differeent experiences which have taught us different things,, but,, the main point that needs to be discussed is about Chandu,, who says he loves her, and also that she is a emotional wreck,, frankly, m confused with his second batch of story,,
I suggested he get out, but after talking to her parents,

Nobody has any obligation to stay with another if they feel its not completely right... nobody SHOULD stay with someone else because they are expecting them to change, which doesn't happen. THey aren't even engaged... much less married... NOW is when they need to walk away from it... because its better to do it now then it will be in a few more years... or after they end up married or even have kids that things are never going to be better.
And you should NEVER stick around just because the other person might get upset if you don't.
Would YOU stick around a guy who has a fixation with you that all you see is problems because he drinks, or flirts with other women, or is unattractive and just smells bad? Would you stick around so he doesn't get upset? That goes both ways.
And while you may not want to see it that way... I have been addressing the OP's question... when you first start dating everything SHOULD seem great.. because you don't know them well enough to see the lesser problems... when you get engaged you start to see their lesser problems and you decide if they are still minor enough to live with because trust me... AFTER you get married you ARE going to find every flaw they have and you are going to have to live with it or go through the trouble and expense of a divorce.
If you see big problems at the dating stage... there are a LOT more waiting there right under the surface... and her suicide threats indicates she's got a LOT of very serious issues... and her parent;s and the religious differences as serious as they are are the least of them.
You don't waste months or years in a relationship that's not completely right... you never get that time back and the pool of available single people shrinks with time until all you are left with are those nobody else wanted for good reason or people that are divorced or widowed... and the baggage so many of them will have (though not all will).

I think he walks away and doesn't speak to his girls parents. No doubt he would be blamed for her suicide behavior, or they will be in denial of her actions. Either way doesn't bode well for him or her for that matter.

Guys you all might be right bt I'm the one who is to blame forher suicide...
I never talked to her for break up in a direct way... alll that I used was rough language.
I knew she loved me and would never stop... but I wanted her to forget me... sothat she miight have a nice marriagelife...
So the onlyway that seemed right to me was what I did.
I told her" iwas using u.....i dont know how u girls r so silly...anyone could make u fool...it was a game...for me purely in which i had to act to b nice to get gifts of your love and meanwhile i would have the thing i loved the most; your body................. And what forced me to forgeta* and come to you was your body...it was the thing i all meant with......NOT YOU OR YOUR LOVE OR LIFE..........IT DOSENT MEAN A LITTLE TO ME EVEN IF U LIVE OR DIE........"
It hurted me a lot... all I wanted from her was thatshe should be with me... I one who never even thought to kiss her chicks told her this... the words I used were more rough... but I can't use them...
As I said we have been longer than a year I relantion but we might not have talked more than 5 minutes constantly... in whole year we might have talked for mximum 1 hour... but every time she understands me... no need of words to explain... she is the one who always appraches me.. even if fault would be mine... she is very broad minded... I have many female friends... but she has no problem with it...
Many things are such I haven't told you... it might fill up books and you might even think that I'm a boaster... my whole life changed its track completely in just 4 days . I even didn't know what happenrd...
I have seen my love close to death... she was just unconscious... I feared what would have happen... all sirs lifting her to take her to hospital... and I stood there watching it.. helplessly... I had no way... that day I committed to myself" go to any extent for even....any extent"
But after in 2 months in feb. She tried to end her life be because of me...
Every time I was responsible...
But she never stop loving me... she never complained to me... all that she would say is I know you.. Understand you... u need not explain me...
Tell me how could I break her heart... I love her much..

Its not YOUR fault at all... its her fault she has mush for brains... she lacks the mental stability to think and act rationally... that's HER fault... and nobody else's.
There are 3.5 billion other guys out there... there is also 3.5 billion other girls out there... NONE of them are that important or that special to be worth killing yourself over.
People like that ALWAYS try to make it someone else's fault.. and some of them are pretty good at playing the victim when they really aren't. Seems like she's already played you for a sucker making you believe that.
How many times do you think she can play the woe is me card before you see none of this is your fault... and and life around here will be a series of one crisis after another if she doesn't get her way every time...
What her behavior indicates is she needs a psychiatrist... not a boyfriend.
Hey... sorry to sound harsh... but this is something for her family to handle... not a burden anyone needs to deal with early into a relationship.
If she is this unstable... what other crisis might she do this again and succeed? When she burns a chicken, when one of her parents or siblings die, when a friend of hers dies? etc... etc... etc...
She CAN get treatment for this... and she CAN be made better.. but it takes time.. and it takes money and its not going to happen unless she and her parents see the problem for what it really is... and that's HER, not you.

Tell me how could i break her heart........ I love her much..
Chandu, you say you love her,, then you say you broke her heart,, what's the status now? Are you two together or have you broken up?
How is she after the suicide episode? She needs help... this suicide is a sign of threat to u,, she is saying she'l commit suicide if you break her heart,, take the message,, don't break up directly and take all the blame on u,, you are young,, such incidents can alter your life,, it can alter your opinion on life and love,,
Yet again, I repeat, YOU ARE TOO YOUNG,, this is no time for true love,, this is the time you make small mistakes and learn from them,,
I am asking you to act mature because the girl is acting insane,, I still suggest the same,, talk to her parents about her act,, tell them why she attempted suicide. Act matured. Remember, your in India,, once you get a Tag as the reason for some girl's death,, that tag remains forever,, specially when it comes to a HINDU n a MUSLIM. And you have no idea how the public will react to a muslim girl's death,, i.e. if she tries again,,

i can go on n on,,, so many stories,,, try this,,, watch/download crime patrol,,, u'l understand my point
Let me start by saying that were really aren't that far apart in that we both think this is wrong... we just have different reasons for why we think that.
I am not only married... I have a LOT of friends.. buit I also see the world the way it is... not through some rose colored glasses for how I wish it was. And I am past the point where my hormones control my behaviour as it does for guys from 14 through about 30. They aren't engaged much less married... this is when you are supposed to walk away when things aren't exactly right... BEFORE they get married and have kids.
I dated my wife for over 3 years before I got married... I've been married for just over 20 years, I'm 51 and did my share of wild oats sowing before then... they on the other hand AREN'T even engaged... much less in a real relationship... they haven't even slept together... they don't have "love" yet... that is impossible, she's clinging to anyone because of her mental instability... (its not love)... he wants to sleep with someone he finds attractive so he confuses lust for love because he lacks the life experience yet to know the difference between them. And experience is the only way to learn that.
What he feels for her is NOT the same thing I feel for my wife... for the reasons I stated... he really barely knows her... and they haven't been together in a serious way for love to grow and lust to wear off... and seriously... I have walked away from girlfriends who acted mentally unstable before (well beyond women's monthly cycle type stuff)... lifes rough enough without dealing with that too.
And incidentlty.. the last part of your post has absolutely no bearing on the subject of this topic... You are the one here who seems though think ONLY about oh poor her.. well the world doesn't revolve around her and its time she wakes up and faces that fact...
Its also abundently clear that HER parents as well as HIS parents aren't at all happy about this... and apparently unlike you, I am old enough to know that they aren't going to change their attitudes if they do marry, I'm also old enough to know that if you have neither families support the two of them are going to have a very hard life...
Apparently you seem to believe what you see in the movies... that if they both just stick it out despite the abundent evidence that this just has nothing bu7t problems everything will be just like a fairy tale and everyone will live happily ever after... well for one thing he doesn't :Love" her....he is in LUST with her....the two things are very, very different....he doesn't know her well enough or long enough to actually love her yet...you don't "fall in love" right away, you fall into LUST right away.....love MIGHT start to grrow about the time the lust is wearing off, she on the other hand isn't capible of grasping what either are because she is mentally unstable...and will remain mentally unstable until she gets medical care. Its NOT coing to mysteriously cure itself just because he is there....quite the contrary..its only going to grow and get worse as LIFE get in the way of what her family has protected her from and she has to deal with reality.
Its also very true when that lust wears off and he sees she is not the girl his imagines she is..he's going to be very, very unhappy....
Nobody but NOBODY should be getting married or even thinking about it when there are large numbers of problems in the relationship....(and this realyl isn't even a relationship yet)...because I actually do have the benifit of seeing these kinds of things because I well past my 20's when kids still think fantasy is possible. I've got lots of personal experience that proves otherwise..as well as having seen dozens of others make those same mistakes as well.....and my 51 years on the planet has proven to me...that statistically those two aren't going to have a normal life or a good one. THere is no basis for a relationship in what he has given us so far....and in fact I've seen nothing but reasons to walk away from this one...and thats even without considering the religious aspects here.
As far as what you said about the so-called "honor killings"... thats the kid of things troglodytes do. (and I'll try to refrain from further offering my opinion on THAT topic because I don't feel like explaining myself)... and all the reason in the world to get as far away fromn her now as he can get... and consider this a difficult lesson... and consider if her family would even consider that from someone he really hasn't dated or had a relationship with , much less slept with (which I assume has never happened)... immagine what its going to be like when she starts bellyaching about how he hasn't done enough to cater to her every demand... it doesn't end with that... its only getting started.
There are other subcultures of other cultures where that sort of thing has been known to happen... and they are a lot further west than India, (Sicily) its just not as well known outside that region, and its tended to remain a closely guarded secret that really isn't much of a secret.
I'm NOT going to recommend he do something he WILL come to regret... and I have zero doubt he WILL regret sticking around her... as soon as his hormones stop telling him what to do and his brain can be more rational... as happens with MOST guys his age... and I wasn't immune to it at that point either.

This is my last post here... guys I know ,that you know this world better... but just put yourself in my place... and please don't call her insane.
She just said to me" hey if you dont like or love me now, tell me.
I m not going to fight with you. yeah i m going to help you to get one u r happy with. But pls tell me directly.......dont cheat me.."
I know suicide is just a symbol of something really big. But all she wanted from me is I shouldn't cheat her... she just said she tried to commit suicide bcoz she couldn't beat the fact that nandu cheated her...
And silver... we are together... still I'm mad for her.. didi I know I'm too young... For such stuffs... I wish I could ever talk to you or meet you.
Yeah forget to tell u... pls don't guess her less... she never threatens me... And she never uttered the word suicide again...
She just says to me " nandu i m ready to do anything for u...dosent matter whether u r with me or not.....just be happy.....and when no one is yours....dont worry there still a mad in world who is yours.." smoothy thanks for advice..

Just think long and think hard.. and take the advice we gave... because now is the time to leave or you are going to be playing nursemaid to her.
You can call it what you want... but sane people don't try to kill themselves over something so minor...
Its not even normal or sane to kill yourself if a husband or wife walks out on you, and it really is insane to try to kill yourself if the other tries to walk out when you really don't have a relationship beyond friends... Its not even normal if you watch your child die in your arms... but at least THAT is something that would be understandable. But nothing else is.
Honestly neither of you understands the true meaning of love, not yet anyway... and for those of us with a lot more life experience... yes it really is that obvious. I see the beginnings of a real control freak in her, and passive aggressive behavior that will only get worse with time.
Having had the misfortune of briefly dating someone like that in the past... I feel sorry for anyone who knowingly puts themselves into that situation... because if you think it will be hard now... its going to be a lot worse later... and you can add the cultural stigmas of your region... and the homicidal tendencies of people of her faith.
We can't make you do what's right... if you insist on doing it anyway... just be aware that we warned you, and "told you so"... and we did our best to keep you making a mistake that you will be paying for a very long time.
And flaws you see in her BEFORE marriage will only become more profound after you are married. (and yes that does work if the genders are reversed as well for the women reading this).
And trust me... my wife has her share of flaws... some very real ones, most I didn't even see before I married her, one that bothers me VERY much to this day, but I still could have made far worse mistakes in getting married to any of the far worse women I have previously dated.
We have a saying hindsight is always 20/20.
When its all over we can sleep well as we tried to help... but you will have to live with the results of your actions.. good or bad.
