Mam m married for 6 year with 2 year old baby boy....it was an arranged marriage from the beginning i don't have feeling for my husband.....few years back i started talking to my ex still somewhere feeling for him..... what should I do mam m very confused?

Ans: Hello mam,
I understand your problem mam. I would like to know how's your husband's behaviour with you? If he is ok and doing good with you, its my personal advice that you should think good about your marriage. As you have a son also his future depends on your today's actions. One more thing, when you ll not leave your past behind, you ll not be able to invest in your present. So I would advise you to stop talking to your ex and concentrate on your husband and kid.
Take care ????

Ans: you are in duress. a relationship as defined by you is not worth being in one. please break off, block him from all our touchpoints - social media/ phone etc...if need be change your phone number. heal yourself, focus on your self, become financially independent, feel good about yourself before you find your person.

I failed in cbse board now can I sit in josaa counselling with any other open board I got 93.2 in jee mains

Ans: Hello Dear.
Sorry to hear that you failed in CBSE board examination. Failing your CBSE board exams means you won't be eligible for JoSAA counseling. You can consider appearing for the CBSE improvement/compartment exam to improve your marks and meet the eligibility criteria for future JoSAA counseling. You can appear 12th via open board but again you have fulfill the eligibility criteria of min 75% for JoSSA counseling. Best of luck for your bright future.
