'I still can't get over my college sweetheart'

She too was attracted to me but eventually after college we went our separate ways. Later, I realised that she had a boyfriend and I felt like a fool. Last year, thanks to social media, I come to know that she has got married to a rich guy and relocated to Dubai. It's been seven years but I still can't forget her.

Dear Faiz,
Good heavens! Mr Romeo wake up and do a reality check. First, when you were in love with her, she already had a boyfriend and now she is married. She was not interested in you. You showered attention on her and she basked in it. You yourself state that you felt like a fool when you realised that she had a boyfriend. Now she has a husband, so get ready to be a Mr Fool again. Forget her pronto and get going in life. She is your past and you live in the present. Think of the future and find someone else.
