A shame

Lambretta,

I AM away from them. I never could get close, cause of lack of common thinking. They are just acquaintances, whom officially or unofficially we are forced to put up occasionally with a grin.

REgarding INDIANS who WERE an example for the world but now ARE found increasingly tilting towards western culture, the reason I suppose is, many find a fascination to a free life style which THEY BELIEVE would bring them happiness. Tough lessons which may take time to show results.

With globalisation Such cultural changes are BOUND to happen. We cant help it.

Yes ur very rite! I wud say tat this is our ppl.'s dangerous (& foolish) weakness! This slavish mentality of being fascinated w. practically every aspect of a foriegn culture & getting swayed by it!
Yes I'm sure ther will be lessons in future to teach them (ther r infact now itself, but they r too blinded by their fantasy-bound illusion to see them!), altho can't say for how long.

Maybe we can't......but still, I've reason to believe this all is not goin2 last forever.....it will come to an end altho I won't say 'soon' or 'within x no. of years'.....I've been told u can't fix a time-limit to such things! Nething cud happen unexpectedly- as even ur guru Sri Ravi Shankar said! :)

Uggghhhh!!!!!

I feel somewhat sheltered here in the US where apart from my husband I depend on my friends.These were friends of my husband when I came here first as a newly wedded bride now they are mine too...Ours is a huge gang and friends include friends from school and college and their respective sposes.The thought of coveting another ones husband/wife does not even enter the air aound our heads let alone our heads.The very thought is disgusting!!!!

ss,

Things are NOT like what u have in US. India (esp upper middle class and upper class) is heading towards diff direction. LArgely heading in diff dir.

Yes! Indians tend to be clannish in US(and many other countries).
Reality hits them hard when their children start school and reach middle and high schools! :)

Extremely sensible of you, Shakthi. You have in one statement captured everything - letting them be, not allowing them to interfere with your life or happiness and not judging them!

:clap:

Although some may want to be more proactive and want to do something about this sorry state of affairs, I personally think your course of action is the wisest! It is, as you say, their life.

if ever a title reflected a thread's content it is this one...i am just utterly shocked that such things occur never mind that it happens in India but that it has to happen at all :(

Madam PP, this is awhile back but please tell me the reasons you quoted for premarital sex are not for real...if one is going to make such a decision based on such immature shallow reasons...that just goes to show how much ill-respect one has for oneself :x

That some do this out of consent such as mixed couples is their own depraved business but that one is forced and has no say whatsoever of what happens to them is so unbelievably wrong :evil:

Q: The percentage of people those who involved in such filthy activity will be less than 0.000001 %

We give more publicity here by discussing it in public! :(
