    The reality is that it doesn’t matter where you live, that grief will still be there.

    Pretending a guy who was born and raised in India would only have a support network in the UK is insane… unless they’re saying Indians are heartless monsters?? Super weird logic going on there.

        Four years vs twenty two years in India, where his family, and hers are actually from.

        This is just an excuse and a lame one at that.

      Yes, plus if we didn’t want Indians moving to the UK, we shouldn’t have colonized them.
