samlovable asked, Hi LG, Do you think long distance relationships can work out fine. I have met this girl over internet, we chatted a lot in the begining. Then we shared pics. We then started talking over phone. We usually talked for hours. I have never met any girl before with whom i could talk more freely. So I proposed to her. She replied in yes. But we are geographically far apart. She lives near Delhi and I am in Maharastra. Also she is in her Degree Final year, and i am working for last 3 yrs. I am about 5 years older than her. Do u see our relationship getting somewhere.

Love Guru answers, Yes, long-distance relationships can work, but they are difficult. If you both want to start going steady, though, I would suggest a few meetings in person beforehand. Then decide. If you both want to make things work, you can.

Ravi asked, Hi, I got married in 2004, she stayed with me for a month and left for her coaching class for appearing in medical entrance examination. As promised by me before marriage, I have take care of her expenses. it continued for two years, but during this two years also when ever, i tried to talk to her, she avoided most of the times. Whenever, i went and tried meet her, that time also she used to avoid me most of the times. All of sudden she applied for divorce and asked me to give mutual consent. However, i tried myself to convince her and also through her parents. she was not ready, hence, i gave the mutual consent for her happiness. but still i love her too much, i unable to forget her. is it possible to get back her in my life? is there any ways?please advice LG

Love Guru answers, Ravi, this woman used you for your money. She married you based on the fact that you would cover her steep medical fees and once she didn't need you anymore she filed for divorce. Believe me, you're better off without her. Find a nice girl who likes you for who you are. And if I were you, I would demand that her parents compensate you monetarily for the sham of a marriage they put you through for money. Take them to court if you want to.

goa asked, Hi, I am 25-yr old, was introduced to a guy in the US by my parents for an arranged match. We were constantly chatting for 3 months and the guy was all emotional towards but always stopped short of committing. He got me emtionally swindled and then just a month before he was to come here for our engagement, he tells me hes attached else where. But I reacted in bad way and at that instant he said he's only infactuated wid her and that he wants to marry only me. He conveyed the same to his and my parents as well. But after 3 hrs when I call him up he says he needs time?? Wotz he trying to do? He fooled me for 3 months? Even now he's undecided? I've already ended my associtaion wid him? Do u think i did the right thng? I still feel i love him?

Love Guru answers, Look, if someone's mind is not made up about marriage, it's best not to force them. If he approaches you again, talk to him honestly and ask him to tell you the truth -- whether he has a girlfriend or an ex still playing on his mind. Say you deserve to know the truth, since he promised to marry you. Find out what the situation is and then accordingly make your decision. But you don't call him. If he doesn't approach again, consider the case closed. You did the right thing by calling it off.

Abhishek asked, Hi LG, I broke up with my GF like 2 yrs ago and have also come out of any attraction for her. But still sometime i roam around the place where we spent our time together.. only sometimes. I have been a very good frnds to gals around me and they also say so. The problem is that i get scared sometimes to get close to any gal, even if a gal proposes me. I get scared that if this relationship will not work out then what next....?? I am not sure why do i think this way. Is there something wrong with my perception about people? AB

Love Guru answers, There's nothing really wrong with you -- what's the point of accepting anybody's proposal if you don't feel attracted to the person also? That's one-sided. When you meet someone you genuinely like, go ahead and commit.

s123 asked, I love guru. i have been reading yours articles for long time . i am supposed to marry this year and am working in an MNC. my fiance is turning 22 this year and had completed engneering ; iam turni g 30 this year . please suggest if it is okay to marry her because of age difference of 7.8 years. i am eagerly waiting for ur response .please suggest.

Love Guru answers, If your fiance feels that she is ready for marriage and is looking forward to it, there is no issue with the age gap -- I'm only saying that because she is rather young, not because the age gap between you two is big. There is no problem with a 7 to 10 year gap, only both partners should be mature enough to accept the responsibility of marriage.

Pooja asked, hi love guru, i am in love, he is my best friends cousin. he loves me very much & his family knows about our relationship, the problem is that his mother believes in Jnam kumdali milan & our kundalies dose not math. so she is searching a girl for her son now. she likes me. Abhishek want to marry me.

Love Guru answers, Look, I frankly do not believe people should take astrological advice so seriously. But since his mother believes in it, why don't you both approach her and visit some big-shot astrologer who can maybe suggest a way out of the dilemma? That way her mind will be at ease and you'll be free to get married.

Jay asked, I m in touch with a girl for 3 months now.She kept on hinting that she was about to break up with her boyfriend. We were in touch all day. On phone, on Email or on company chat client. Now as things are getting better between them she is trying to avoid me. If she is talking to me she ll be saying stuff like This guy(some third guy) is sending me cute mails or stuff.. And if I try to leave she ll get all upset n start the emo drama.. what to do ?

Love Guru answers, What emotional drama? Tell her to perform like that in front of her boyfriend, not you. She kept you as a backup in case her own relationship failed. It didn't so you got the rap for it. Remain friends with her but nothing more -- and if she hands you more bait the second time around, don't take it. Stay strictly friends.

Love Guru says, That's all we have time for today, people -- do come back next week, same time, same place! Also, you can email me at mailtheloveguru@rediffmail.com -- till the next chat, goodbye and God bless!
