Getting my husband

Sir,

I am a 26 yr old girl madly in love wid a 29 yr old boy. We met in univ. 5 yrs bak and fell in serious luv. four yrs back before getting intimate with him he filled in sindoor on my forehead . Infact he bought d choora. Inshort , in our eyes we gmarried each other. Ever since then we lived happily, made many future plans. No body knows of our marriage. But last year wen he spoke to his family,the dismissed the argument for the reason dat i am a rajput and he is a Brahmin. Since 1 year we are struggling to be together. But its nt being possible b'coz of his family. Now the situation is as such that the boy has almost backed off under family pressure. He asked me to marry some1 else, forgt everything and even didnt admitt about marrying me. He has turned a total stranger now. I am helpless as i consider him as my husband since 4 yrs. the boy is not as he is behaving , but he doesn't want to go against his family. Moreover, my family,unaware of dis z continuously buil;ding pressure on me to get married.

I called up his mother, begged for him and finally told her about our marr. but it made no difference to her n she told me to quietly marry sum1 else. I am very depressed. I want myove . But some1 told me dat if i file a case against him, he'll loose his govt. job. which i dont want to happen. Some1 please guide me . wat shud I do? Is there any case which will help me validate my marr. in court, I have d pics.( without snatching his job) .I love him a lot.

I am suggesting as per my experiences, you will not getback your so called husband if he doesnt want to come and live with you.By Filing a case you can not bring him back if he doesnt want you.If he loves you he has to be with you agaist his family wish.More over he is 29 yrs guy. So dont waste ur time and energy. May be you can speak and give some time to him to think.Meanwhile talk to a lawyer for filing case so that you will be legally free atleast for your future sake.

Speak to your family and tell them everything hiding is not good.If you cannot speak to ur parent directly then somehow think how can you inform them asap.I can understand the difficulty of informing about a trouble relationships.If ur family force you to marry also you will have problems in ur married life if you still love that guy and legally not free.You are just 26 yr old.Explain your parent to help you getting job and make you employable if not working.Now a days girls are marrying late.Dont be depressed.

1. No he will not loose his Govt. Job. As per Conduct Rules he has to inform his department (superiors) about pending criminal case only if he is in jail for more than 24 hrs. If he furnishes such info. he retains his job with departmental enquiry that is all and criminal case will take its own logical journey.

2. Talk to your parents and tell them about your sindoor, choora and all these 4 years consummations facts within 4 walls of Uni. Hostel Dorms. that all happened between you two adults and let your elders in the family approach to boy’s family for your hand instead of you approaching boy's family. Also 4 years back when sindoor and choora were put on you by him did you share the joy with your elders in family! I bet NO bze. for them you are still there "sweet little girl" and that facade of sweet girl as prism in her family she never breaks but with boy's family all aimed guns are filled with roses as we say in Court when occasions comes to handle such cases. The question today after 4 years is why? Answer that to yourself bze. 5 years back you were still legally major as per Indian Laws and eyes were wide open to the adults world.

3. One side you followed medieval thoughts read with Bollywood blushes coming from Rajput community and after 4 years of consummation facts you woke up to law of “consensual s*x with promise to marriage and if no marriage then it is crime for him”. I would say too late to spoil your Career and rest of Youth but nevertheless try via elders of your family and see to it that he is behind bars forever.

Puppy love of Uni. days should be left to that mushy days and rarely in real life such purple love continues in 21st. Century.

But after that will you get him running to you on his knees?. Only history as told by you to your kids can say so. 

Try to find out within your community if you have customs and usage of sindoor and choora being valid marriage custom among Rajputs; photos as you say in your facts does not prove a thing. Also hire an advocate via elders reference or ask them to search vast databse of LCI lawyers and consult with one.
