I like him, I like him not

You should never marry someone whom you don’t like. Though there are fair chances that love might bloom after marriage. In regards to the confusion about the ‘married colleague’ and assuming you have already conveyed your message to him, my only advice: please don’t take any decision till he comes out clean from his wedlock. Men usually love attention and refuse to refuse. Don’t let him take any advantage of the situation and please don’t get weak. Be strong. Either go all out to win your dream man or get married to someone who will love you. Don’t waste your life for anything that is not worth the wait.

Just tell him - ‘STOP’. Tell him the moment he does it and don’t bother who’s around and where you are! Protest there and then. You should also keep your husband informed and I’m sure he’ll be alert too. Men sometimes neglect the power of women and please don’t keep quiet any longer. Face it for once and for all. I’m sure, your husband will always be supportive and you will soon come out of the unwanted situation. If need be relocate to a different house.

I suggest you go for a marriage where you select the partner, spend quality time knowing and discovering each other and then tie the knot. ‘Arranged’ doesn’t mean someone else selects for you and you don’t have any say! I’m sure there’s somebody made just for you. The connection of the soul is very important and you never know who’s waiting for you and where. All the best!

Stop meeting such relatives! Color and complexion of any person can never be a discriminating factor! This is really sad and unwanted. You should ensure that your children understand that color and looks don’t compose a person’s life. Always highlight small, good things to your daughters and appreciate their talents. If the younger one is ever upset about this, tell her that she is the most beautiful thing that happened to you and help her to create a beautiful mind.
