My case might be unique cause I am from a very conservative background. I am a very religious Hindu and I CANNOT go against my parents to marry a guy they disapprove of. But emotions took over me, and I fell in love for a Buddhist guy! He loves me soooooo much and when I took the case to my parents, they totally disproved of the guy, cause he was Buddhist. There is NO WAY my parents can give a YES to him. I tried soooo hard with my parents! And although I kind of expected this, I still couldn't help myself from falling in love with that guy.
There was no way I could be happily married to him given the cultural and religious differences. I couldn't bear the fact that the only solution to this would be hurting my parents! So I had to call it off, due to practical issues.
But it pains like hell!! I love him soooo much, and so does he... but there is no way this can end in marriage! It pains to know that we had to split, with all the love still in our hearts. Even he is trying hard to live life without me and so am I! I am not able to forget him although I know this will not work out. Its been a month now and I feel that I'll be in love with him forever, and just stuck there, without being able to move on with another guy my parents show! Please help. How do I move on? I feel totally devastated!!
