What'syour definition of love?
Ifyou truly love a person, you have to respect that person first. You do not tryto change the person. Which is why I love the Mughal-e -Azam romance.She was anautch girl and he was the future king,but status didn't matter to either ofthem.That's love.Unfortunately,people from my generation don't get that.They tryto ride on each other and are very selfish.For me,it is important that theperson I am in love with makes me feel comfortable.He needs to besensitive,compassionate andintellectual.
What'syour take on extra-marital affairs?
Disgusting!There is no excuse for an extra-marital affair.I will never forgive my partnerif he cheats on me.I will not be able to trust him anymore.
