She is an American of Mexican origin. She’s got a job in New York and I am taking up a job in Mumbai. We are constantly in touch over the Internet and phone. My folks have begun looking for a girl from our community. I don’t think they will accept a firang as their bahu ever. Lately, this has got me thinking whether we can have a future together. I don’t know whether’s it the fear of rejection from my family that is making me think like this. What should I do?
