I am 17 years old girl and I love a boy who is of the other caste with different culture, language and tradition but I still love him a lotttt. Because I believe loving someone truly and being loved truly does matter more!

We were in contact for 4 months but later his parents got to know about our relation and so informed my parents about it too. We were warned not to talk to each other nor stay in contact through any source. Since that day our days turned in tears. We miss each other a lot and die to talk but I don't just because of our parents happiness.

I really don't understand what's wrong if we love someone from other caste and wish to marry him after a certain age? My dad says " he's non-vegetarian and moreover from other caste" nobody will accept this!! But I always wish to be with him and spend my life only and only with him.

What do you think? I am wrong or our both parents thoughts about this?
What should I do?

Of course there is nothing wrong with the love between you two.
But many parts of the world don't work on love when it comes to marriage, and you have to decide between this young man and your parents.
17 is still young, so you can't just run away with him. Keep trying to work on your parents' views and keep trying to find a way to talk to him with the help of a friend, maybe, at least to get news back and forth.
If you are planning on college in the future, that will give you some freedom of contact, at least.

Marriage and each persons place in life is often decided by their caste in some parts of the world.

Also four months is no real time and at 17 your emotions are not fully set or grown up.

Unless both are willing to go against your parents and that is doubtful, you will just have to move on with your life

I think your parents are wrong, but I strongly advise you to obey their rules until you are independent enough to stand on your own. I seriously doubt that a 4 month love is going to put food on the table, or a roof over your heads.

They know you are not capable of doing anything about this love except feel it, want it, and see it as forever. Probably your FIRST or strongest love of your young 17 year life.
