Dear Mita, I am worried about my sister who is 19 years old and is in a relationship with one of her friends. I feel that the boy is very immature and doesn't know how to handle a relationship. My sister is also worried that as we belong to completely different economic and social standing, our family would not accept their relationship. She has been trying to make him understand that he needs to stand on his feet if this relationship is to work. Despite her pleas, he hardly tries to do anything but he claims to be madly in love with her. Now she's unsure whether she should stay in this relationship or call this thing off. She's also worried that if she breaks up with him, he'd be shattered and this would make her feel guilty. As her brother, I feel her pain and would really like to offer a way out of this situation. Please help.
