Re: any Muslim singles
Exactly. It wasn’t dating. From what you’ve written you both had a deep emotional connection which was only ever emotional, you both cared for each other and he also cared a lot about you. You also say he had many wonderful qualities, you trusted him and vice versa and he was also willing to convert. You also said that he truly loved you and you had to try to find any flaws which you couldnt. However, background and your parent’s restrictions seems like they would never have accepted had they known.Don’t beat yourself over the past. Just think tis better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all. Life teaches us all lessons. From his actions I would say he also wants you to move on to find someone who will make both you and your parents happy as he cannot. Even if he gives you maximum happiness if your parents do not accept it you won’t feel completely happy either. True love is about sacrifice also. Be at peace with the past and even if you do not find someone exactly like him others can have other positive qualities which he may not have (eg. parental acceptance). Maybe comparing new rishtas with the past will make you feel sad.
Anyway don’t give up. Keep looking.
Thanks so much. Wish I could like this post but mobile site doesnt allow it. :s. You understood me well. Yeh im glad I loved and cared for him like he cared for me. Yeh first I need to find rishta lol.
Being single and older really isn’t that bad. Depends on your circumstances. We have no boys in our family, so right now, I can devote my income to helping my parents plan for their retirement and dealing with paying off my educational debt. Without having to worry about a guy who wants a breakdown of my check or who is using my money to pay for his family’s needs. Having some freedom in that regard, I don’t have any guilt if I get something to eat from outside, or spend on myself a little here, and there. No one to question me regarding my finances.
I can also go to the bathroom in peace and privacy, and take long relaxing baths. :k:
He never asked me for money.
