Zermin,

How sad, daughter of a pampered feudal with all the attention, maids every where, has found the real world outside. Loove, how sad, no love in the US, at last returning to the nest, to be hand fed by the maids.

One has to have individuality, vision and abouve all some elemnt of human spirit. Having raised in society under the cloud of honor killing, to be nth wife of the most dominant feudal, you went to the wrong country. You should have gone to saudi arabia, to the harem of sheik al abduls bin pehlavevi.

hey zermin,

its always hard to share your personal feelings, so welcome to chowk. i hope you find pakistan just as you remembered it.

there are many reasons to dislike america, just as there are many reasons to dislike pakistan. i think assuming no one has time for you there though, is a generalization. when i was in college, i made many american friends who were just as warm and supportive as my friends in pakistan. we talked about about a lot more than boyfriends and dogs, even now, eight years later, we are in regular touch and know each others innermost fears, desires, phobias etc...provide whatever emotional support we can to each other. people are the same wherever you go. i guess its just a question of luck when it comes to picking friends.

Nice. Sounds like me, well ofcourse my circumtances were not as bad as this, but I have been through some of the worst times in America as well. And btw I am a great fan of chicago too. :)
