My 8 years love is going to die. She is going to marry a wealthy guy earning around 40 lacs per annum from US. I am from a poor family and I don’t have job and preparing for my higher studies [GATE] to relieve my family from debts. She is a good friend of mine but doesn’t know my love for her. Days are passing on like HELL. My conscience is not allowing me to convey my love. If I sacrifice my love, she can marry a wealthy guy n live happily. If I say my love to her, her parents will kick me through all streets of their area. No option I am the scapegoat. Please help me to get over her thoughts. Please don’t ask me to get out of her friendship. On course of time, she n her parents have helped me la lot in my career. She n her parents consider me as her best friend and they are asking me to come to her marriage to help her. I have to literally kill all my emotions and feelings to go to her marriage and help her. I can’t tell this to my parents [they can't withstand this]. I need to digest her marriage and all I am asking is, how should I proceed in my life further. [My emotions are already dead, by the way]

Very sorry to hear this. I had a similar situation when I was 18 yrs old, with a girl I thought loved me for 6 years. At 22 yrs old, she sent me a letter in college, saying she found someone and was in love... funny thing, I though she was in love with me!
It hurts! I will never forget her, or will never forget any of the girls I have ever loved. You won't forget her, either. Please go on with your life. Meet some new people, and be respectful, and honest with them. You will eventually meet someone who cares for you and you will care for them.
Life is tough, and it's not what happens to us today, it's how we handle it. Good luck.
