I have a close friend of mine who was & his deeply in love with a girl and viceversa. But they made the ultimate sacrifice for love by not getting married to each other. They did not want to wound their parent's heart and go forward with the marriage. Now... this was/is still a shock to me, but it seems to be more practical than any other available options. Who would want to wound their parents heart, whom had taken care of them for the past 20 odd years through joy & sorrow, pain & suffering and countless other situations.
This decision was mutual, if this would have been one sided, the other person would have felt let down. But this was the case where both of them are mature enough to admit the facts and took a decision that defined their lives that they have lived so far and their future.
Dude... I am really happy to have a friend like you!!
