Re: speaking of desi women...
^ I think its because desi culture is highly judgemental.
I hope I dont sound harsh when I say this. Jaanaan, I think she said that because she doesnt want anyone to know she has a BF. Its her privacy and she can protect it any way she likes. She doesnt have to tell you about her boyfriend to make you happy...she has to look out for herself. You're practically a stranger to her, why would she tell you something so personal and allow you to judge her? She doesnt know you and therefore doesnt owe you anything...not even explanations.
