I’m 25, and my boyfriend is 29. We want to get married, but when I told my family, my relatives threatened to harm us both. They’ve locked me in the house, preventing me from working, and they’ve been emotionally and physically abusive. I’m terrified. My job is in Kolkata, and my boyfriend’s is in another state. I don’t want to live with my family anymore. What can I do?

You can file a complaint with the police about the threats and abuse. You can also seek legal advice and file for protection under the Domestic Violence Act. Additionally, you can consider approaching a women’s rights organization for support and guidance.

Or can he bequeath his entire share to my older brother?

My heart aches as I write this. I’ve been with Vivek for six years, a love story that began in 2010 amidst the challenges of my divorce. He promised to stand by me and marry me once things settled down. We’ve been long distance, Delhi to Mumbai, but our bond has always been strong, like husband and wife despite the distance. We even visited each other 3-4 times a year. Now, in 2016, he’s planning to marry someone else, telling me only after his engagement.
