Can't believe it's your personal life story. You have a lot of courage to put it into words and biggest of all, share it with us.
In my opinion, you did right.
It is my friend it is, courage? If my experience can help others then that is something good.

Thanks for telling us your story and I think you are a really nice decision maker. We cannot live happily if the parent's blessing arent with us.
Religion doesn't matter to me at all, but I can't make others think like that.If one sees the love and agree to marry on that I am more than happy to. but if you talk about religions and castes...makes me sick because thats something we made not what God made.

I agree with you brother. But the problem is keeping the families happy.

Really ur story has great depth to touch emotional feelings..but in my opinion, everything happens for the best..Wahiguruji Bless both of u..
Regarding ur question, i wud say i cant answer becoz i have never experienced something like this and will never experience as i have been brought up in really very strict family enviornment..and dont have this much dare..I am not so brave girl in this regard..
but really excited to read other users responses..btw liked KhandMishri's response..
Kudrat Ji
Yes, you are right; Waheguruji has his plans for all of us.
I too have been brought up in a very strict family. I guess for me it was different because I left home to study in two universities quite far from home and then found myself employment some 500 miles away. My job has taken me to very many places around the world and I guess that gave me more freedom in some such way. It was never the dare but more the following of a heart that would not give up.
I liked Khand Mishri’s response too.
Thanks for your kind words.

I agree with what you have written. It indeed is life. You win some and you lose some but hearts take time to mend.

At the tender age of 25, as far as my parents were concerned, the unthinkable happened. However, for me there was never anything “unthinkable” about it. Indeed, I had fallen in love. You might think what’s so bad about that? I would agree with you, there is nothing bad about it at all.
I had fallen in love with the most beautiful and perfect girl, she was a vision sent from heaven. When I first set eyes on her I knew that I was hooked, I knew if I was to speak to her or make an approach I would be talking complete gibberish, which is a language spoken by all who are in love, well, to begin with at least; you know the way you do when your heart overrules your head. Like when you for no good reason, other than a reason only known to God himself, put yourself under pressure.
Well, I didn’t have the courage to speak to her at that moment in time but I tell you this I lost sleep for days. I couldn’t stop thinking about her. Eventually, to cut a long story short, I plucked up enough courage and decided that I just had to make contact. So that is what I did. My legs were turning to jelly as I walked across the client’s office where she was working as a legal secretary, my eyes must have spoke volumes because she could read me like a badly written book, but hey I am glad she did. She smiled. I knew it was going to be fine.
We dated for some time, nearly two years and we even thought of a wedding. But who were we kidding; I a Sikh, she a Muslim. Her family were from Lahore and mine from near Jallandhar. She had not had the courage to tell her family and, to be honest, neither had I. I knew what my mother would say; she would not have entertained the idea at all. But I was absolutely surprised that my father, a hard ex military man, actually said “jeh tehnu theek lagda phir dekhla” I was shocked.
What I was more shocked by was that her parents threatened to disown her; they threatened her with completely cutting her off from her family. It came to me at that point that both of us were simply not strong enough to carry the relationship through to the marriage stage.
With a broken heart each we stepped away from one another. I still remember the day she got onto the train at London’s Kings Cross train station and rode away out of my life. Sure it hurt, it hurt a lot. After nearly 3 years sometimes it still does. But at the end of the day when the sun sets you know that tomorrow is another day and life has to go on. The sun does rise again. I am now 29 and I guess ready to have my faith restored. I’ve met so many nice girls and had a lot of fun since but never the right one. But I also believe that each day is nearer to the right day.
She is now married to a Muslim guy who came over from Pakistan; I think he is a cousin of hers. I still sometimes speak to her when she rings me; I have never rang her as I feel that she should now get on with her life. I am just a secret friend now, just someone she can talk to when she needs to; someone she can pour her heart out to. She knows that one day I will find someone new but until then I will walk green pastures by and by. Interestingly enough, I have never been interested in having an affair with her. I could easily have done so. The truth is I could never have been able to share her with another man. I’d rather give her up altogether.
But, I ask you; what would you have done?

I don’t know if you are aware that 17 Sikh men have been sentenced to hang in Dubai. I was on a march which took place here in London to present the Brittish Prime Minister with a petition for help in saving these men.
Here is what Amnesty International has to say.UAE MUST INVESTIGATE ALLEGATIONS OF TORTURE OF INDIAN MEN ON DEATH ROW “23 April 2010
Amnesty International has condemned abuses and torture said to have been meted out to 17 Indian men facing the death penalty in the United Arab Emirates for the murder of a Pakistani national.
The migrant workers, sentenced to death on 29 March, are alleged to have been tortured by police over nine days while in custody in a bid to make them ‘confess’ to the crime.
The men were beaten with clubs, subjected to electric shocks, deprived of sleep and forced to stand on one leg for ‘prolonged periods’, say Lawyers For Human Rights International (LFHRI), an Indian NGO campaigning on behalf of the men.
Navkiran Singh, of the LFHRI says that a month after their arrest they were taken to the scene of the killing and forced to re-enact it. They were made to beat up a policeman posing as the dead man. The scene was videotaped and later presented at their trial as genuine CCTV footage of the killing.
“This is a mockery of justice. These 17 men have been tortured, forced to confess, and sentenced to death based on a fake video”, said Hassiba Hadj Sahraoui, Amnesty International’s Deputy Director for the Middle East and North Africa.
Amnesty International is calling on the UAE authorities to investigate the allegations of torture and abuse and to ensure the 17 men receive a fair trial on appeal, and without recourse to the death penalty.
They must be protected from further torture and other ill-treatment, and any evidence obtained using such methods should not be used in court.
The workers, all from the Punjab region and aged between 21 and 25, were arrested in January 2009, after a Pakistani man died and three more were injured in a fight, believed to be between rival gangs for control of an illegal alcohol business in the emirate of Sharjah.
According to the LFHRI, officials in Sharjah Jail forcibly removed religious bracelets and necklaces worn by the men, all but one of whom are Sikhs, and made the prisoners stamp on them, saying "Who is your God? Call him. We would like to meet him."
According to the information available to Amnesty International, the trial was conducted in Arabic then translated from Arabic into Hindi, neither of which the 17 men understand. They were provided with an Emirati lawyer, who could not speak their native language, Punjabi, and did not refer to the alleged torture in court.
The men were held for months before the Indian government was told they had been arrested. On 29 March the lower court in Sharjah sentenced them to death but the verdict was not made known to them until 14 April. An automatic appeal was filed on 8 April and the men will appear in court next on 19 May.
“The authorities must investigate these reports of torture and ensure that the results are made public and those allegedly responsible are held to account,” said Hassiba Hadj Sahraoui.
Sharjah is one of the seven semi-autonomous emirates that make up the UAE. In the UAE, a total of 3,113,000 foreign, migrant workers of over 200 nationalities work in 250,000 enterprises and as domestic workers. Migrant workers make up some 80 per cent of the total resident population of the UAE; UAE nationals around 20 per cent.
In 2009 at least three people were sentenced to death by courts in Dubai and Sharjah but no executions were reported. In June 2009, the Supreme Court set aside the death sentence imposed on a US national, Shahid Bolsen, because he had not had access to a lawyer at his lower court trial in Sharjah.
“There appears to be a surge in the use of the death penalty in the UAE in 2010. In the month before the 17 Indian nationals were sentenced to death, according to a 22 February article in Abu Dhabi's newspaper The National, at least eight men had been sentenced to death in the UAE.”http://www.amnesty.org/en/news-and-updates/uae-must-investigate-allegations-torture-indian-men-death-row-2010-04-23Here are some further links. http://article.wn.com/view/2010/03/29/17_sentenced_to_death_in_UAE_for_murder_report/“You should go to this site to ask for help getting justice for the condemned men.

SSA London Punjabiji..
It was nice story,, but more than story I really like ur way of writing.. u can be gud writer.But This is my weak point i am not good with words and cant express my experiences so well..
Rest abt rats, I dont know how i will react but once I have seen newly born Very small rats at my Village's Farms and those were really cute.. :happy:
Thank you for your kind words Kudrat Ji.
When I was young my father would make me copy out the whole of a story from a newspaper and he would make me tell the story in my own words. Very often I would have to write it out and he would read it and give me praise for it. I just learned to use as many different words as I possibly could to tell the same story.
Before I opted to do engineering I did toy with the idea of doing journalism but I liked engineering.
Kudrat Ji, self expression is just about painting pictures with words; a delicate form of storytelling. The one thing I find most interesting is political debate, because that is all about putting a point across in such a way that the electorate will buy it.
You mustn’t think you are not good at expressing yourself; from what I have read of your writing I can see intelligence in your words. As you know I have expressed that to you before.
One thing I will always say to any one is this; don’t ever ignore the basic rules of writing.

Daachi valeya modd muhaar ve
Sohni valeya le chal naal ve.
Teri daachi de gal vich talliyaan
Ve maen pir manaavan challiyan.
Teri daachi di sohni chaal ve,
Dachi valeya le chal naal ve.
Teri daachi thalan nu cheerni,
Ve maen peeraan nu sukhniyan sheerni.
Aa ke tak ja saadda haal ve,
Dachi valeya le chal naal ve.
Teri daachi de chumniyan paer ve,
Tere sir di mangniyan khaer ve.
Sadi jindadi nu inj na gaal ve,
Dachi valeya le chal naal ve.
Teri daachi toun sadake maen janiyan,
Panjaan peeraan nu payi maen manaaniyaan.
Sukhaan sukhniyaan teriyan laal ve,
Dachi valeya le chal naal ve.
Ah!!! Shiv Kumar Batalvi, my favourite poet and songwriter. When I was young in India we had a "daachi". A daach is a camel, I am sure you knew that already though.

Yeah I have heard too.. even read somewhere that there is one rat for 36 people in NY..But Luckily i have not faced any kind of problem becoz of rats..
SSA Kudrat Ji
I’ll tell you a funny story about a rat.
When I was studying at University in Edinburgh I used to work on a pig farm during the summer holidays. In many ways it was a wonderful job because it was away from the hustle and bustle of city life. The fresh country air in Scotland is very nice. The farm was near Inverness, in fact not too far from Loch Ness, I am sure you have heard of the world famous Loch.
Anyway, another farmhand and I were given the task of cleaning out the pig pens. I will never forget that day. It was very bright and sunny. I had a pitch fork in my hand. We were just messing around having a laugh when I spotted a huge rat run across the farm yard. I don’t know why but I threw the pitch fork like a spear at the rat. As I said we were just fooling around; never did I think that I would hit the rat. Well, the pitch fork flew through the air like a javelin and speared the rat. I couldn’t believe it. Not in a million years could I do that again.
I then had the unenviable task of removing the dead rat from the end of the pitchfork. That was the last time I dealt with a rat. I was nearly sick and still get that sickly feeling when I see a rat. X_X
