For her and her momma, sabse bada rupaiya!
Dear Diana,
I am a 23-year-old design engineer. I've been without a girlfriend for the longest time now. I met someone online and would talk to her daily. About two months back, I fell in love with her. She's elder to me by a year. One day, I told her that I would like to marry her. She told me that it wasn't possible. Her mother would only approve a groom who was rich and owned a big bungalow in Mumbai. Is money more important than love? I haven't talked to her for 20 days now. I have given her a 40-day ultimatum. If she comes back to me in that time, I will accept her, otherwise I won't. What should I do now?

Dear Zuby,
Stop being delusional. Forget 40 days, if you give her two months to think it over, she won't "come back" to you. I'm sure that she doesn't love you in the same way that you love her. Marriage would be out of the question probably because she has made up her mind and has grandiose plans of marrying the perfect rich guy.
About what's more important love or moneyu00a0the answer is simple and not without controversy. Money is, if you are talking about its significance in one's life. You really cannot be expected to survive on love, practically speaking. Then again, you could have all the money in the world, but have no love in your life. If that is what she wants, think of it as her loss. Don't make yourself miserable over it.
I gained weight and lost a boyfriend
Dear Diana,
I recently gained weight after recovering from a long illness. A month later, my boyfriend dumped me and was quite blunt about why he had done it. I'm shattered!

Dear Friend,
Anybody who dumps you because your physical appearance changes for the worse, doesn't deserve you at all. One thing you have to be thankful about, though, was that he was brutally honest about it. You'll lose the weight sooner than later. but he will have lost you!
Sex doesn't interest my wife anymore
Dear Diana,
I have been married 10 years now and have a kid. Of late, my wife has become uninterested in sex. I told her to watch porn movies, read mags, try different positions etc, but she is not interested. I even tried foreplay, but it didn't help. She walked out of the room. The only thing that interests her is talking on the phone with her mom and watching saas-bahu serials on TV. My mind is greatly affected due to this. I feel frustrated and angry.

Dear Friend,
Different things work for different people. If porn or mags (visual stimulation) or different positions / foreplay (sexual stimulation) doesn''t excite her, maybe roleplay could. Try a family drama sequence that would get her thinkinh. And if that doesn't work either, ask yourself this: why is she behaving like this after being an active participant in the sexual act for so long? Maybe, a little self introspection would give you the answers you need? Is she of the opinion that a wife's "duties" end with giving birth and keeping the house? Don't act on your frustrations and anger and instead use themu00a0 constructively to find out why she's being this way. If she still refuses to open up, meet a marriage counsellor.
