    Mybaby- I agree with you. As Mr Gandhi said, "Be the change you wish to see in the world", one has to bring the inner courage out. It is easier said than done but it can be done.

    Nuss, Congrats and best wishes. Feeling very happy and your life teaches lots of courage and is an inspiration. You proved that education is not only for earning and living but also for making wise important decisions in life. :hatsoff

    Thank you Jeera, heron and tsheen. I never thought of my decision this way, it was more like- do I want to live all my life in constant fear of his and his families anger outbursts and false accusations? The answer was a clear NO. It took me time- I wrote down all the plus and minuses of my decision. Only minus was 'what people esp my family will think' but there was nothing else in that column. I will not be honest if I say I didn't think about society but I wasn't concerned about what the neighbors would think, my worry was- whether my decision would affect my sisters (I have 4 older sisters)? One of my sister's family is very orthodox and I was most worried about her, however, to my surprise her MIL was the first to say- 'How stupid some people are, they just don't know what they are losing, If M (her younger son, my sister's BIL) was equally qualified I'd have asked your parents for your sister's (Me) hand in marriage, I've always liked her'. That was a big surprise for me.

    How come I missed this one? Congratulations.

    What do you think are chances of your ex getting accepted to residency program at JHU? ZERO. You should tell this to your ex. :)

    Why does she need to tell her ex? She needs to look ahead and live her life. Once you have dumped your trash, don't look back.

    I don't think this is a debate thread. So please.......

    I fully expect the OP to understand the smiley at the end of my message.
