Then job offers come along and she has these millions of fantastic ideas swirling in her head…but who is going to hear her. and then the gods smile on her and she gets a call for something she has been really wanting to do…but the timing is wrong. She id just going to get possession of her new house and they want her to be away on location for four months…now what ?A real dilemma. But no one can help her with this…she has to be solely responsible for the decision she is going to take.On one side is an opportunity which might never come again…and on the otherside is a commitment to the man she loves and promised to always be there for him.

She tosses and turns at night as the day of reckoning comes nearer…..what should she do?This scenario is happening to most of the educated girls of today…they have good jobs or their own work for which they have worked hard and to give it all up is gut wrenching….and for what most of them ask themselves?....just to pamper the males ego ? and just becoz they have got married ?
