No, but that's my partiarchal culture and as much as i've tried i can't change the fact that it's ingrained into my parents.
We were forbidden to see each other because we made a stupid decision that my mum found out about. I tried to contact him and practically poured my heart out, explaining briefly what had happened and that i needed to speak to him. I got a short email in response and never heard from him again. I wish he would have tried something, anything, but instead i got a "have a nice life and stuff"... i dont' care what he was feeling, that was selfish and cowardly, especially considering i could soon have been disowned or thrown out on the streets by my parents for all he knew. He never even contacted me again to check if i was ok. Lol okay, now, /rant.
