Rahul,

It must take a lot of courage to go through something like this and still get 
back on track. I can only say that this is a huge inspiration to other people 
who may get a raw deal of fate. 

Guys, the email was long, but please read it.

Rahul, congratulations for this new beginning. I am sure everyone here wishes 
you the very best, and if you are ready for it, I wish you a loving new 
relationship. This may sound presumptuous to you, but please keep your mind 
open about it - the past doesn't return and we still have the right to be happy 
in the future !

Cheers
Salil

hi rahul,

Being elder to you, I think I can advise or tell u
something.

God atleast has freed you from that bondage  hell, u
must thank him for that.  Now you have to dumb all
these hangovers  start a new lease of life which he
gave u.  In fact I dont want to rake up your past. 
But if u c god had given enough indication of ur
ex-wife's frivolus intentions. Anyways, the same god
brought u this mess. 

We as such have no alternative except to tread on the
path shown by him thru some alerts directly or
indirectly. Hence Do pray him sincerely  honestlly.

Anyways, I sincerely pray to almighty to bless u with
all the happiness u lacked earlier.

One more thing I really like to c such mails, Hence It
would be good on this forum if our members share their
experiences

  To begin with my story let me formally announce my
 name here first. I am Rahul. I have done my
 engineering and I have been working for last 10.5
 years in the field of information technologyI
 have enjoyed a great career and travelled the world
 overWith ambitious mind and with high
 expectations from my happy go lucky kind of life...I
 purchased a new big flat for me, my parents and to
 start my new family life (yes even though I knew I
 was a gay)I got engaged to a beautiful, charming
 and intelligent girl...she was my distant
 relativeafter our engagement we started roaming
 around like free lovebirds...exchanged 
 emails...kisses...and lot more that any two lovers
 would do. But after almost 2-3 months I started
 observing changes in her attitude...her
 behaviour…and her wish list that she was trying to
 propose me with…
 I was a very straight forward guy..and I had never
 got any chance to understand any woman so closely.
 At this point in time I had no thoughts of staying
 single as I was already attached to her and had
 started dreaming about my family life with her…but
 as the time went by…she started showing her true
 colours….she started avoiding me whenever I used to
 go and meet her while she was with her friends….she
 started giving excuses for not meeting me and
 started telling me that she had received lots of
 better marriage proposals and she could have opted
 for someone better than me…I used to get upset and
 try to find flaws/loop holes in my relationship….I
 used to question myself if I had done anything wrong
 to her for which she had started showing disrespect
 and disregards to my feelings….Our tiffs took a
 shape of small disputes which in turn triggered new
 arguments and fights…. She went to an extent of
 breaking our engagement and cancelling the marriage
 hall which we had booked for
  our wedding…. My father was a very sensitive person
 and he was deeply attached to his LADLA BETA.. He
 couldn’t see his son’s engagement being broken and
 soon he met with his first heart attack… I couldn’t
 see my dad suffering in pain and physical torture… I
 promised myself  ’whatever it may cost I will try to
 make my relationship with her again and try to keep
 my dad happy’ So me and my Mom tried to convince her
 to patch up again and make a fresh start. She
 agreed. My dad started feeling better and he began
 our marriage preparations in full swing…but may be
 god didn’t want to see me happy for a long time!
 Just one month before my marriage on a black
 Saturday I lost my father… He suffered cardiac
 arrest and left me and my Mom alone. My Mom also
 collapsed on seeing my dad dead and I had to
 hospitalized her in an ICU….I brought my Mom back
 home just 2 days before my wedding….my relatives and
 family friends advised us to go ahead with my
 marriage as it would only add a new
  member into our family and that might help my Mom
 feel better… I had no choice but to accept the
 wedlock… I was feeling guilty from within as at one
 end my Mom had turned into a widow and at other end
 I got married to begin my family life…Was it really
 justified for a Son to get married especially when
 he had lost his father just a month before his
 wedding? Anyways…everything said and done..I made a
 fresh start!

   But the pain of loosing my dad was still pinching
 me deep in my heart…I always used to feel guilty
 whenever I slept with my wife…In my dreams I used to
 see my Mom crying and see the dead body of my
 father! I had no clue whats there in store for me
 and I could see my future in the dark…. I went into
 depression and our relatives advised my Mom to take
 me to a psychiatrist as only he could pull me out of
 the mental stress and trauma that I was suffering
 through… I was under medication for 3-4 months… Used
 to take 6

hi 

sorry if i am making assumptions - dont know either walnut or his 
family so just posting the thoughts that came into my mind as i was 
reading the mail.

I guess there is no way of knowing the girl's side of the story and in 
family conflicts its hard to say who is right and who is wrong.

The girl seemd to have a reason for not wanting to marry the guy - did 
she realise you were gay, for instance - so actually pressurising her 
(my words) to do so was not the most right decision. And i can imagine 
the pressure on the girl to marry - especially when her would be father 
in law has a heart attack when she wants to break the engagement. 

Hve known gay friends who marry girls and end up making both their 
lives miserable. Let alone any consideration for the wife - have seen 
the guy walk off or in the worst cases stay put in the marriage and 
blame the wife for everythin that is wrong. 


cheers,
shibu

Dear Walnut Rahul,
Look at it positively. Fate has given you a second chance to start all over
again with a new slate. It is a good thing that you have decided that you
won't get married again. But please do not close yourself to life. It always
throws up surprises, often couched in challenges. If you are open to life
you will not only enjoy it and yu will also feel enriched. And for all that
you know you may actually find the one who likes you for what you are and
who wants to spend his/her life with you, in a mutually respectful station
of joy and love and laughter, and some quarrels at times.

With me about 5 years back, rights about the time I was convnced that I am
the carefree bird that is meant to cruse through my life cruising daily for
the next fuck, I had the pleasant accident of meeting Hillol, my BF, while
cruising the streets of Kolkata and we have been together since, in a
commited relationship, and have never missed cruising. We have had a
wonderful time together, and the love and bond just grows with every passing
day. We have also had our share of quarrels, but its almost become a game
now, a competition about who smiles first after the tiff to make up. Every
quarrel also strenghtens the relationship.

I refuse to belive that such a happy accident cannot happen to you or anyone
else for that matter. You just have to be open to its possibilities and when
it happens, embrace it.

Love and all the best

Aditya B
