I’m 32 years old and have been in a live-in relationship with my boyfriend for 6 years. He promised to marry me after his business was established, which it is now. Recently, he told me that our relationship is over and he wants to marry someone else from his community to please his parents. I’m in a difficult situation because I left my job for him and lost my mother last year. I feel alone and don’t know who to turn to. What should I do? Could I take legal action against him?

Under Indian law, you may not have grounds for a formal marriage claim. However, you can potentially pursue a claim for damages based on his promise to marry, causing you to leave your job and suffer emotional distress. It’s best to consult a lawyer to assess your specific situation and options.
