I might be left hanging if my ex finds someone else!

Dear Diana,

My ex girlfriend is 20 years old while I am 22 years old. We'd been together since college (some three years, I think). We broke up last month and promised to continue to remain friends. The reason we broke up was that she began to feel I was being very possessive of late and that she was beginning to feel suffocated by my very presence.

I found it funny because this was one girl who wanted to be with me and said so on several occasions. We loved being in each other's company so much that we even planned our schedules to be able to spend as much time together as possible. That said, she changed over the last year and started spending far lesser time with me. Truth is, I haven't really gotten over her. She's really pretty and I'm worried she might find someone else and that I might never stand another chance to show her how much I love her.

Dear Deven,

While three years of togetherness is something to cherish, you must remember that all good things do eventually come to an end. In your case, when the fairytale ended, you couldn't deal with it because it was all going so smoothly and because it was she who pursued you and not the other way around.

However, a breakup did happen, she did feel stifled for some reason despite initiating an arrangement along with you. Whatever happened over the last year, you will have to let go of her memories to really move on. And if you don't want to, I suggest you tell her after a while that you will wait for as long as it takes and see how she feels about it.u00a0

Are Mumbai's massage parlours safe?

Dear Friend,

I guess if it's simply a massage you're looking for, all you ought to do is check the credentials of the place before visiting it. Ask friends for referrals to places they've. As far as precautions or safety goes, I really wouldn't be able to help you there. Ask someone who has been to one.

Have a baby with my cheating boyfriend?

Dear Diana,

My boyfriend and I are forever arguing over the smallest things. And he has been this way since he found out I was cheating. Now I know for a fact that he cheats on me with other women but I have never uttered a word of protest. Even so, he doesn't care and threatens to beat me up. I don't know what to do to keep the peace. I love him and he loves me as well because he says we should get married and have a baby together but his philandering is too much to bear. Must I really have a baby with this kind of a guy?
