He's ready to wait even if he doesn't stand a chance

Dear Diana,
I am a 21-year-old girl. I love a boy who has refused to start a relationship with me several times. He is handsome and everything about him is exciting. He's also cute and charming. Then there's this other guy, a 24-year-old, whom I consider a friend. Over a period, I even pondered of a potential relationship with him. He loves me and says he'll wait for me for as long as it takes. He wants my happiness above all things (he says he will step aside should the other guy return to me). Should I give him a chance?

Dear Srividhi,
What would bring you true happiness Loving someone who loves you as passionately (or even more!) or loving someone who will never feel that way for you? They may both be the ideal type but it's the person who is willing to let go in the hope that you will find your way back to him, that deserves to be with you.u00a0 He seems decent enough and if he is willing to take the chance of losing you to being with you, he really must feel for you. What's the harm in giving this ghuy a chance anyway? You've tried your luck with the other guy without much luck.

Papa, beech mein mat pado!

Dear Diana,
My father wants me to marry his friend's son. Who, by the way, I've never even met. I like this other guy and would like to see where our friendship takes us. But I don't think my dad would allow that.

Dear Friend,
Sit down with your dad and tell him that you too should have some say in who you want to marry. Tell him you are in no hurry to, and would not want to be forced into marrying a complete stranger.

She says it's infatuation. I know it's not...

Dear Diana,
I am 18, from Mumbai, am a good-looking guy in love with a girl (not from my religion) who is six years older than I am. I love her a lot and can't live without her. I've known her for eight months now. When I proposed, she said nothing was possible between us, because of the age difference. I know she likes me, but keepsu00a0 avoiding me. She says it's infatuation, but I know how much I love her. God-willing, I will marry her in the future. I don't want to lose her. Please help me. Tell me what to do.

Dear Ayaan,
I have a feeling it could be infatuation. She's older and you have hardly started out in life. If you are convinced of your feelings for her, wait around four years more before even bringing up marriage. And besides, there's also the problem of belonging to different cultures/religions. You'll have to ensure that both families are aware of the relationship. Question really is: is she willing to wait four years for you?
