mam i have feeling for a guy but since 2 days i am not talking with him.. can you tell me can i start a relationship with that person or can i breakup with that person and my There is also a relationship of 2 years with another person from whom I broke up 4 days back.

Ans: Dear Uma,

Firstly, it's important to understand why you stopped talking to the guy you have feelings for. If it's something that can be resolved through communication, then it may be worth trying to have an open and honest conversation with him to see where things stand. It's possible that he may feel the same way about you, and the two of you could start a relationship.

On the other hand, if the reason for the lack of communication is due to irreconcilable differences or a lack of interest from one party, it may be best to move on and focus on other potential relationships.

Regarding your recent breakup from a two-year relationship, it's important to take time to process your emotions and thoughts before considering jumping into another relationship. It's natural to feel lonely or seek comfort from another person after a breakup, but it's important to ensure that you're not just filling a void and that you're truly ready for a new relationship.

Ultimately, the decision to start a new relationship or continue with an existing one is up to you, and it's important to trust your instincts and make a decision that feels right for you.

I am confused with my relationship. Im in relationship frm last 1 month . I met him via social media . Actually now a days i feel he is not serious with me . Im not getting the good vibes from him. Wht should i do now
Ans: Hello Priyanka.

It's understandable that you are feeling confused about your relationship, especially if you're not getting good vibes from your partner. Here are a few suggestions on what you can do:

Communicate your concerns: It's important to communicate with your partner and express your concerns. Talk about how you feel and ask them how they feel about the relationship. Honest communication can help clear up any misunderstandings or doubts you may have.

Evaluate the relationship: Take some time to reflect on your relationship and evaluate whether it's meeting your needs and expectations. If you feel like the relationship isn't fulfilling, it may be time to reconsider your options.

Take a step back: It's okay to take a step back and give yourself some space to think about the relationship. This can help you gain clarity and perspective on the situation.

Trust your instincts: If you feel like something isn't right, trust your instincts. Your intuition can often guide you towards making the right decision for yourself.

Remember, it's important to prioritize your own well-being and happiness in any relationship. Don't hesitate to reach out to friends or a trusted confidante for support and advice.

PS. It's always advisable to do proper due diligence if things are virtual. You should know and figure out who your partner is in real life. We all know virtual world has its own drawbacks.

Best of luck.

Heloo I have been a single mother for the last 10 years. Last year I found a guy to retain he loves me and had a physical relationship with me. Six months it was good. suddenly he realized that he had family and started ignoring me, and stop chatting meeting me. I am waiting for him till date. But in the last four months, I start liking another guy who is married with two children and who also loves me a lot. We had a long-distance relationship. He comes from Pune to meet me. We talk a lot on calls. But still, I am confused about what to do. I cannot forget my first guy and also don't know what I feel for the second guy. but I like to talk to him. Please guide me. I don't want to be alone.
Ans: Dear SSV,

It might help you to take a second and think about what you want. You loved someone and now he is gone. Moving on and finding another person to love is natural. Not being able to forget your ex might not be so much about your ex, as much as it is about you not being ready for another relationship. Allow yourself the time to heal and then look to love and be loved.

Introspection- asking yourself, "Am I really in love?" "Do I need some more time to move on?" "Am I completely healed from the previous breakup?" and so on can help you identify the real problem at hand.

You said, "I don't want to be alone." Are you sure you are not jumping from one relationship to another from the fear of the same? Don't let the fear of loneliness rush you into making moves that you might regret. You can consider stepping back from your current relationship for a heartbeat and figure out what it is that you want without your feelings clouding your judgment. Relationships don't usually work out when you are in two minds about it.

Best Wishes!

My boyfriend tells about us to his parents his parents rejected our relationship due to intercaste and they also stop talking to him it's been 4 months his mother don't talk to him .He is in navy . And they also started searching girl for him . He want to maintain distance from me he is not happy he is stressed as his own parents are not talking to him And also maintaining distance to me he talks to me me but just because I can't live without him but he changes in behaviour what to do
Ans: Dear Shruti,

I am sorry that you are in this situation. First of all, please try to look at it from your partner's perspective. It isn't easy to confront your parents and it's even harder when they stop communicating altogether. Having said that, I also understand how it is for you. It is not fair, especially in today's day and age, to face discrimination based on caste.

You have two options:
One, you wait patiently, emotionally support your boyfriend, and hope that his parents come to their senses and realize that we are living in 2024, and caste-based discrimination is ridiculous. In this scenario, you do have to let go of your self-respect and have to face many more hardships, that much is guaranteed.

The second option is you hold your head high and move on. Yes, it isn't what you hoped for when you emotionally invested in building this relationship, but unfortunately, these things are still happening. In this scenario, you will be sad for a long time, but you don't have to compromise on your self-respect and you will move on and live to see happier days with someone who respects you and sees you for who you are and not your caste.

Now, the choice is yours.

Best Wishes!

Hi sir, i have total 10k for investment of which I'm currently investing 7000rs in icici prudential nifty 50 index fund for 15-20 years, and ready to put 2000 rs for investment.My goals is to earn a cagr of more than 15 percent with 10 k for 15-20 years with little risk. Also suggest some term insurance without good claim settlement ratio and coverage upto 1cr
Ans: Hello,

Given your investment amount and goals, here are some suggestions:

Investment Strategy:

Additional SIP:
Invest the additional ?2,000 in a diversified equity mutual fund to balance your portfolio.
Choose a fund with a track record of consistent performance and a lower expense ratio.
Goal of 15% CAGR:
While aiming for a CAGR of 15% is ambitious, it's crucial to understand that higher returns generally come with higher risks.
Opt for a combination of equity and debt funds to balance risk and return.
Consider small-cap or mid-cap funds for higher growth potential, but be prepared for increased volatility.
Term Insurance:

Coverage of ?1 Crore:
You can consider term insurance plans from reputable insurers that offer coverage up to ?1 crore.
Compare premium rates, features, and claim settlement ratios before choosing a plan.
Claim Settlement Ratio:
Look for insurers with a high claim settlement ratio, indicating their reliability in settling claims.
Avoid insurers with a history of low claim settlement ratios or negative reviews.
Remember, while aiming for higher returns, it's essential to assess your risk tolerance and invest accordingly. Diversify your investments across asset classes and regularly review your portfolio to ensure it aligns with your financial goals and risk profile.

Consult a Certified Financial Planner for personalized advice tailored to your needs and financial situation.
