Relationship

I am in a relationship with a guy, we both are student of NIT. First, he didn't told me about his past relationships but nowadays he is telling me about his past and sometimes he lies. But i don't know how to trust him, i love him but i don't know what to do, he lies then after sometime he tells me the truth but i don't know is it true or not. Plz help me

Ans: Firstly why do you wish to know about someone's past? Past is for a reason. And what can you do if they had one or several relationships before they entered one with you. Focus on the present and on the now. You not trusting him is your issue, and it is difficult to love someone you do not trust - please have that clarity. All the best.

Hello mam. I am in a relationship with a boy and we both love each other and also want to get married but he doesn’t trust me at all.I tell him everything, yet he thinks I am a liar and alleges that am cheating on him. He doubts me in every single thing even he don't allow me to talk to any guy or girl not even my friends and he doesn't like when I step out from my home.  He gets scared when I step out or get to my college. He keeps reminding me to not to cheat or not to talk with anybody. All these things got me into stress and frustration and I feel so bad that the person I love doesn't trust me.We had lot of fights because of this. He abuses me and makes me angry. As I am a college going student, I can't manage my studies because of fights and his bad behaviour.He always tries to prove me wrong and make me feel guilty. He thinks very bad about me and makes his own stories adding fake stories and allegations.  In the past 2 years there is not a single day when I didn't have to explain him. But he is not ready to accept. He only wants to hear what he thinks not the real truth if I say that u are misunderstanding me he says no he is 100% right and you are wrong. One of his friends put one story 2 years ago with a girl hiding her face and the top she is wearing on that picture. I have the same top and he knows it. He doubted that the girl is me. I am tired answering his doubts. I got so much anger and feel disrespectful.I love him; he is my first and one and only boyfriend.  I do everything for him. But he treats me rudely he always starts his conversation with doubt like: where are you coming from? even if I didn't go anywhere he thinks that I went somewhere to meet someone. He tortures and abuses me like this. Every time I forgive him but he kept repeating that behaviour.  I can't even live without him. I give him my love, time...my everything.  But I didn't get anything. He thinks that I always do things by planning but I don't. He thinks that I always want to ruin his life, break his heart or cheat him but that's all wrong. He is making his mind so negative he thinks so negative about me. Because of his doubts problem I don't talk to anybody -- no friends, no guys but he thinks that I am talking to any guy and I'm lying that I don't I give every possible proof but he didn't trust me at all.He thinks that I tell people about him I gossip about him but I didn't do that I didn't even talk to anybody. He doesn't even want to breakup with me. I explained him that for our peace we have to separate he didn't want that also. He put such bad allegations on me about my character, my sexual status. I am a virgin but I didn't accept that. He makes me feel so sad and helpless I don't know what to do I’m helpless I didn't even share these things with anyone. Sometimes I feel suicidal also.  He has just all control over my life my mind but also he didn't give me respect, love or value. Plzzz help me mam what should I do with his doubts and trust issue. I am so depressed, plzzzz help me out. I’m stuck in it.
Ans:

Dear BM,

Have you heard of emotional abuse? That is exactly what you have been facing.

And why are you putting up with this? Because you maybe feel a sense of validation in this relationship.

What sort of a relationship demands constant proving and to the extent of having to prove that you are a virgin.

How is it any of anyone’s business whether you are a virgin or not? This relationship is toxic and has begun to alter your personality and who you are meant to be.

Take charge and NOW. Be YOU and what you always stood up for, because all this putting up with his idiosyncrasies, is causing you pain and moreover your inner self does not want to allow it.

Yet you are stuck to it giving yourself the story that he is the only boyfriend. BREATHE, take a step back and OBSERVE.

It’s time for you to draw out a beautiful life ahead of you and colour it as brightly as you intend.

What exactly are you waiting for? More abuses, more toxicity to hit and dampen your sprightly spirit?

Get a hold of yourself dear girl, be brave and do the right thing. Help yourself…Seek close friends who will hold space for you!

You can do this. Best wishes!

Relationship
I'm a 19 year-old-boy and I have been in a relationship for 1 year. We know each other a lot as we're best friends before we decided to be couple. But due to some incidents I'm having trust issues. She is a little bit desirable with me only but I'm imagining if she gets intimated with any other due to her excitement or if she leaves me. I really want to trust her. I've experienced this before when I was in another relationship 5 years back. Maybe it's my past which is hovering. I don't know. I want to believe her. How can I ?
Ans: Dear Anirban,

It seems to be that you are having a little bit of a trust issue, which is normal at your age. But look, you have known your girlfriend for quite some time now. Is she capable of being dishonest with you? Yes, there are differences between being someone's best friend and someone's romantic partner, but the person and their innate nature stay more or less the same. You know her better than anyone. Ask yourself. If there is still some sliver of doubt, the best thing would be to have a clear and honest discussion about the same with her. Communicate to her, without sounding accusatory, that you have been feeling this way lately.

In my experience, if your gut tells you there's some reason to worry, there usually is. But you are young, and your intuitions can very well be clouded by emotions running high and insecurities that come with that age. The best course of action is to talk it out. You will have clarity.

And hey, your past is in the past. What happened there, and how you were or weren't treated cannot be the yardstick for everything that is happening and is yet to happen in your life. You are too young to hang back in the past.

Best Wishes!

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.

My son got CSE in JECRC Jaipur & Dr. Akhilesh Das, Delhi. Which one is better. He is Rajasthan Domicile
Ans: Amit Sir, based on the following insights/information and your son's location preference, please choose the more suitable option for him: JECRC University in Jaipur offers a robust CSE program accredited by AICTE UGC and NAAC (CGPA 2.65). Its 32-acre campus features advanced computing and AI/Data Science labs, a digital library, innovation centers (ICoE) in partnership with ISDC, and modern classrooms. Experienced faculty engage in industry-aligned research projects, while the centralized Training & Placement Cell provides mock interviews, résumé workshops and career counseling. Over the last three years, JECRC’s CSE placement rate has consistently exceeded 95%, with more than 2,230 offers from 140+ recruiters including Amazon, Microsoft and HPE, and 46% of offers in emerging-tech roles. Extensive industry tie-ups, frequent internship pipelines, strong student clubs and an active research culture ensure holistic development.

Dr. Akhilesh Das Institute of Professional Studies (formerly ADGITM) in Delhi, affiliated to GGSIPU and approved by AICTE with NAAC ‘A’ grade, spans 8 acres of urban campus with dedicated programming, networking and software engineering labs. Faculty blend academic credentials with industry experience and the Corporate Resource Centre (CRC) arranges pre-placement training, personality development and corporate interactions. CSE placements range between 70–80% annually, with average CTC around ?5.1 LPA and top recruiters such as Infosys, TCS, HCL and Accenture. While industry partnerships are solid and student support services are organized, research opportunities and alumni-driven mentorship are still evolving.

Considering your son’s Rajasthan domicile, JECRC’s prime location, superior placement outcomes, stronger research infrastructure, and higher accreditation status collectively offer greater ROI and smoother regional integration.

Recommendation: Choose JECRC University Jaipur’s CSE program for its proven placement excellence, comprehensive industry-academic ecosystem, cutting-edge research initiatives and holistic student support aligned with the five pillars of institutional quality, while leveraging Rajasthan domicile advantages. For focused, niche mentoring and urban Delhi exposure, ADGITM remains a viable alternative but ranks secondary given the differential in outcomes and resources. All the BEST for a Prosperous Future!

PCM State General Merit No 108XX - MHT-CET-PCM 2025 PCM, University General Merit No - Mumbai University - 33XX, PCM Konkan State General Merit No - 17XX, PCM All India Merit No - 23XX - JEE(Main)-2025, The above are my ranks in CAP Counselling (MHTCET) Can you suggest best institute I can get in CAP Counselling in CSE, CS or IT branches.
Ans: With a State General Merit rank around 10,800, Mumbai University rank ~3,300 and All-India JEE (Main) rank ~2,300, you fall in a competitive but attainable bracket for CSE, Computer Technology and IT in Maharashtra’s CAP rounds. Prestigious government options such as COEP Pune and VJTI Mumbai close in the 1–9,500 rank band, so they are beyond reach this round. However, strong alternatives include Pune Institute of Computer Technology, Dhankawadi (CSE closing ~5,800 rank) and Saint Francis Institute of Technology, Borivali (IT close at ~12,500 rank) . DJ Sanghvi College, Mumbai (CSE close ~12,300 rank) and Pimpri Chinchwad College of Engineering, Pune (IT close ~3,600 rank) also fit your profile . Among newer options, Vishwakarma Institute of Technology, Pune (CSE close ~2,800 rank) and Cummins College of Engineering for Women, Pune (CSE close ~2,160 rank) remain attainable, while D.Y. Patil College of Engineering, Akurdi (IT close ~7,164 rank) and Rajiv Gandhi Institute of Technology, Mumbai (CSE close ~12,939 rank) offer balanced ROI with placement rates above 85% over the past three years .

All these institutes excel in modern labs, experienced faculty, industry tie-ups, student support and active research culture.

Recommendation: Target Pune Institute of Computer Technology for robust CSE training, then consider Pimpri Chinchwad College of Engineering for its IT strength and Mumbai’s DJ Sanghvi College for its central location and placement record. Backup with Saint Francis Institute for IT and Rajiv Gandhi Institute for CSE to secure seats in high-quality programs.
All the BEST for a Prosperous Future!

Hello sir my son Srinidhi Girish Sardeshmukh mukh has scored 98.92 percentile in mht CET 2025 exam. Additionally, he has scored 97.25% tile in JEE main 2025 exam conducted by NTA. ALSO HE SCORED an aggregate of 82.17% in HSC board exam 2025. He has applied for EWS Category. His PCM provisional state merit number is 3601. His PCM University General Merit No Savitribai Phule Pune University - 1148. Shrinidhi's PCM EWS Merit No 249. His PCM All India Merit No . 2519 - JEE(Main)-2025 (97.2595264). Are there any chances of him getting CSE Branch in COEP, Pune ? Please revert . What are your likely recommendations of eligible colleges & other tech branches for these scores ? Please let me know asap. Your immediate responses will really put ourselves in a better conditions to opt for the most suitable options . I will be grateful to you for your suggestions . Thank you very much in advance.
Ans: With an MHT-CET percentile of 98.92 and EWS reservation, Srinidhi significantly exceeds the closing percentile Computer Science and Engineering at COEP Pune, which in CAP Round 3 was 95.57 for EWS candidates. His state?level merit and JEE Main percentile further strengthen his profile for Home State and All-India seats under CAP. Given COEP’s outstanding infrastructure, highly experienced faculty, deep industry partnerships, robust placement support (95% CSE placements over the past three years), active student clubs, and cutting-edge research labs, he should rank COEP CSE at the top of his preference list.

Beyond COEP, other Pune-area institutes where his MHT-CET score and EWS status place him comfortably above CSE cutoffs include VJTI Mumbai (EWS cutoff ~90.6 percentile), PICT Pune (EWS cutoff ~99.56 percentile), DY Patil COE Pune (EWS cutoff ~95.68 percentile for Computer Engineering), DY Patil COE Akurdi (EWS cutoff ~97.49 percentile), and PCCOE Pune (EWS cutoff ~84–88 percentile across branches). These colleges also excel across the five pillars of institutional quality: state-of-the-art labs, award-winning faculty, strong corporate linkages, comprehensive student support, and vibrant research culture.

Recommendation: Prioritize COEP Pune for its proven CSE excellence, then consider PICT Pune for its top-tier computer-technology focus and alumni network, DY Patil COE Akurdi for its modern infrastructure and high EWS cutoffs, VJTI Mumbai for industry-aligned curriculum and location advantage, and DY Patil COE Pune for its balanced offerings. For alternate tech branches, target Information Technology at COEP and PICT, Electronics & Telecommunication at VJTI, and Artificial Intelligence & Data Science at DY Patil to maximize both academic rigor and placement potential. All the BEST for a Prosperous Future!

Sir my son got 95.69 percentile 65172 rank in jee mains general category. He got seat in vit vellore btec mechanical in slab 1. We are from Tamil Nadu and is there any chances for home state quota for NIT trichy or iiit kancheepuram for mechanical in csab round or is it good to continue with vit vellore
Ans: Lavanya Madam, Your son’s JEE Main rank of 65 172 (.69 percentile, General) falls well below the CSAB Round 1 Home State closing rank of approximately 19,159 for Mechanical Engineering at NIT Trichy, and also below the All-India closing rank of around 40,855 for Mechanical Engineering at IIITDM Kancheepuram, making admission under Home State or All-India quota highly improbable. VIT Vellore, with established Mechanical Engineering infrastructure, extensive alumni network, consistent placement rates above 90%, and strong industry partnerships, thus remains a secure and prestigious option given the rank constraints and the five pillars of institutional excellence: infrastructure, faculty quality, industry engagement, student support, and research opportunities.

Recommendation: Proceed with VIT Vellore’s B.Tech Mechanical to capitalize on its assured seat, top-tier labs, strong placement cell, and alumni network, while maximizing early involvement in industry projects and leveraging its career services to secure robust employment outcomes. You can still attempt to apply through CSAB for your son's preferred branches, excluding CSE and ECE, but the chances of success are very low, Madam. All the BEST for a Prosperous Future!
