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.
