Re: Is tolerance of intolerance really tolerance, or is it .

Re: Is tolerance of intolerance really tolerance, or is it .

Just an idea there. If you tell a youngster that if they show any interest in, or follow the faith of their loving ...

Re: Why do Indian guys do this?

I don't want to generalize here, but this topic has even been raised on this very discussion site. This behavior seems to be more common with Indians that are originally from India, over Indians that are born in the US, England etc. Why do Indian guys date girls out here, claim their undying love f...

Re: Marrying a Hindu punjabi boy is crime for sikh girl??

Sat Sri Akaal sister,

Follow your heart and pray. I hope that the situation will soon resolve itself.

Hello I am 22 years old and have been in a relationship with a boy from Punjab for almost 3 years. We have dated openly at our college, but he has insisted on keeping me a secret from his family and I was upset at first, but figured he would when he is ready to tell them. I graduated from college r...
