Today I woke up in the morning with a phone call from one of my friend in UK.He is one of my closest friend from my professional college.

I got shock listening what he conveyed me.I have seen many a times in Hindi movie,but never encountered this with any of my known circle in real life .Let called him Viru .Viru told me his fiancee eloped with her lover yesterday and got married .He is supposed to marry her on 2nd week of June. He has conveyed and applied leave for this ,his family has conveyed about his marriage to all the relatives and invitation cards are all set to be distributed.He is completely shattered with this episode.

I am a good listener and me always try to listen   to the problem of friends and ready to lend the shoulder when ever any body needs one.

Viru got engaged to this girl 7/8 months back at India.As he has to travel to UK on project demand ,he thought in between he 'll go back to India on Vacation and marry the Girl.Before getting engaged there was no known issue .This Girl was very happy to get a s/w engineer [Tough there is no drought of s/w engineer from the region we belong to in India] from a reputed organization and with on site exposure.Two month back Viru called me and told he has some issue with his fiancee. When I enquired ,I came to know that the girl was having some affairs with one of his classmate.I asked Viru to immediately clear the confusion ,which in fact he did.The girl told just she is emotionally attached to one of his classmates and it's nothing sort of love.And today this relationship came to a dramatic end.
This is something BAD happened to Viru.The girl has no right to play with the emotion.If she loves somebody else she should have clarified it before engagement itself.I can understand what mental trauma right now my friend is going through.

This is the biggest disadvantage of arranged marriage.
Today lot many people are staying out of India on Job demands.Those unfortunate one who are not able to find a soul mate for themselves has to relay on arranged marriage.Back home our marriage has become a burden for our parents .

We belong to a region where the young generation has stopped the tradition of taking dowry ,an evil to society.
The younger generation is preferring to find their soul mates from the time they are entering college.Tough we belong to 27-30 age group ,we are finding a long generation gap in it.

Already matrimony websites are en-cashing this opportunities.Situation these days is less no of girls and more no of overqualified boys.The girls have lot many options in their hand and rest is history. I think I am deviating from the topic.

I sympathizes with my friend,but one way i am feeling relieved that it happened 1 month before ,what if the same scene would have repeated just few days before or after marriage.I think it's better for him to forget this  episode as soon as he can and start his life afresh.

Hi friends ,thanks for your valuable comments.I spoke to my friend,good news is he is trying to forget the episode as accident ,but bad one is it'll remain as a scar for whole life and high chances that he 'll become over-cautious while choosing his life partner.
