Dagger #1 - Why are you online? Shouldn't you be studying, mister? 😡

Tumne bataya, aur hum chali ayi...now if you will excuse my poor Hindi. Can't keep my head under some stupid mathematics book all day, can I? But I should have avoided that "Eye for an eye" topic.

Dagger #2- (in red) I thought I was the only one who spoke in the wrong gender. 😆
Hindi definitely isn't your language, is it? It isn't mine either. There's no problem with messing each others gender though. I love ambiguity. 😆

Dagger #3- (in blue) Well not really a dagger because I agree. I don't have any patience or respect for people who take relationships outside of their religion/culture/nationality lightly simply because they know that in the end they can simply hold up the sign that says "my parents would never agree". Unless both parties are crystal clear that the relationship could never be serious, it is wrong for anyone to make someone else feel otherwise, but of course that applies to things outside of religion as well.
Yep - religion and culture was just one aspect. People should plan as to what they want in their life. Mess up with your life as much as you wish - but spare others.

Dagger #4- (in purple) I don't think love is blind. People know exactly what they are doing and why they are doing it, but sometimes they choose to do it anyways. Perhaps you can't help but be attracted to someone, I agree with, but falling in love to the extent where you want to spend your whole life with them --- I think that's too big of a decision to be taken blindly.
Oops, reminds me of KANK - and how I literally felt like strangling SRK and Rani after the "Where's the Party Tonight" song. 😆 I do believe love is blind, and that when it happens or spreads through you, you can't resist it. That said, love can and should be controlled. Say we cannot live without eating. But we can control that for a time being. Not the best example, but you see what I am trying to imply.
You might be thinking why I detested KANK then. Well, you see, love can be blind. But cheating / betrayal has no excuse. You may fall in love without your will, but you can always keep in an edge. Had SRK and Rani gone to Abhi and Preity and said they are incapable of going with their marriage - then I wouldn't have a problem. I might have been heart-broken for Abhi and Preity then, but still I would understand. But intentionally and willingly renting a room ... 🤢

Dagger #5- (in green) Again, I agree. But I think that is where their love is being tested, everything seems easier when you're not in that situation, but once you're standing there, you know exactly what you're doing and how hard it is. But my question is, before you "fall in love", do you also not love your family? Then is a romantic love more significant or even more stronger than the love you share with your family?
Phir kabhi. Will have to go now. Alreay spent an hour here. 😆
Dagger #6- (in pink) You're not going to get married? Yeah right, we'll see. 😉

Dagger #7- (in bold red) BINGO. You don't care what God thinks, which means that faith does not have a strong enough place in your life (not being personal, referring to my original post), or rather it is not a core value that you use to define yourself, but that differs from person to person. ---- This dagger was just to prove my original point that it all depends on how much meaning religion holds in your life. 😆

Phew, hope the daggers didn't hurt too much. ;)

Wow, so much of discussions. Grrr, DM had to go active the moment I am dying of my exams. 😡😆
I will try to answer the replied here, though. Maybe tomorrow, or some times later. The rest of this post will be answered later too.

All I want to say is this: you can't clap with one hand. the relAtionship between parents and children should be mutual, and not parasitic. If you like another person who's religion is not the same as yours, you shouldn't worry about minor things like religion. Think about the love instead. And if you're happy, you're parents will automatically happy.

but what about the people who feel religion is a part of their identity

Just don't go through with it. You are free to believe/behave as you wish.

I guess it's a different matter altogether then. Personally, I wouldn't know because I don't give much importance to religion because I believe it's just a belief that has been fooling mankind for millions of years( no offense to those who feel religion is an essential part of life)

^ Why would and why should anyone take offense? We are here to voice our opinion and not to keep that within ourselves just because the majority don't share it.

Leaving or converting to another religion is changing ones identity, if you claim to be in "true" love - which I assume is unconditional, then you accept the person for what they are without trying to change their identity, otherwise it's not "true" love at all.

No such thing as true love...nothing that ive experienced anyways...''Sigh''

And if true love does exists , then love doesnt ask for anything, it only knows how to give. So in this case, no one would need to change their religion or themselves in that matter. Two people sharing different beliefs, different faiths, different God could still live under the same roof if true love exists....one just needs to learn how to adapt...but it true love doesnt exists then religion has to be compromised from the girl's side (mostly)...at this point, you got to ask yourself what weighs more your love or your God? Your love is separating you from the God that got you closer to your love...in this case, what would on do? Different people hold different views..i would personally refuse....Love that asks for a price to be paid to be loved then that love doesnt deserve me because my love is priceless...

Here is an edited quote from some anonymous Youtube user sunethn that reminded me of this topic:

Life has both happiness and sadness. Love comes without informing us and leaves without informing us, as well. However, it can end up in irreversible and irrecoverable damages in one's life!!!
