She moved to this city from a poor countryside. She always thinks that she is a "countryside girl". So, she has tried to express as an other girl with outside people.
She only go to big supermarkets and shopping centers, she wears luxury clothes, she tell a lie about her family : she said that her parents are senior officials while they are just ordinary farmers etc ...
Her boyfriend is very rich and good. She feared that he would look down on her when he found out the truth about her and her family.
She wants her boyfriend keeping her beautiful pictures. So she broke up with proactive him. Although she loves him so much.
Is she not wrong when making this decision?

She definitely made a big mistake in her life and that is LYING. Nobody gets away with lying. Even though she wasn't caught yet, it was eating her up and there was so much fear and guilt of being caught, that she decided to give up her love. See how the burden of lying was eating her up? That's what you get if you're living in the world of lies. You don't have a peace of mind and worst of all, you don't have happiness.
I don't blame her though but i hope that she has learned her lesson and be able to stand up for who she really is and admit it to the world. She would be admired for being courageous to admit that she lied and she might get back her boyfriend.

hi,i liked your response and very much with ur opinion.
Now this world is full of things which some we can see some we cant.Now we should think why the girl tried to be with the trends which are changing.
She s a countryside girl, she is brought up in some way and the full fledged Cities are well developed.So to live she has to change herself.This is her getting changed to the situations which she needs.
Now when she changed her self with clothes and features she need to tell lie regarding her background too.
So one lie takes to another and another like that.
She might get the same boyfriend if she was truthful because love and friendship comes from not the outer things ,it is from inside means something ur qualities and character.
She was being eaten up.This is because her inner self was always prompting to her to not to tell the lie.
It would be better if she tell the boy all the truth if the situation as such as arrived .If she needs to be making her living in the society of the cities and should send money to her parents who are working in the farms then its also good because she is responsible.Now what she wants to do is up to her.

Truth is a very powerful thing and it may have overpowered her lies. It would have made for sense for her to risk the relationship and tell then truth instead of throwing her love away to defend a lie. Wow, it just goes to show what some people will do to be something they are not.

tkonlinevn,
I believe we need to remember that there are consequences to all our decisions and we all know that as much as it is difficult to be honest, it is tenfold harder to be dishonest. The lies that one spins will not stop and as you can see the web could no longer stay intact thus rolling up into a ball and trapping its maker within.
It is sad that there are people just like her who just cannot accept her own family, background and most of all herself. In the end, trapping herself in the collapsed web of lies she spun. I think George R. Gissing could have said it better when her wrote: "Life, I fancy, would very often be insupportable, but for the luxury of self-compassion."
There's no self love when there's no self acceptance. Lest, she can come to terms with her own background and herself she will not be able to find the real true love when she decides to be dishonest and road to self destruction.
