And
I'm
very
sorry
about
what
is
happening
in
your
life.
I
know
how
much
this
marriage
means
to
you.
I
know
how
much
your
wife
means
to
you.
I
think
you
accidentally
wrote
on
a
different
thread
when
I
asked
you
to
say
something
about
my
Friday
article
(in
which
I
quoted
you..
thank
you
for
reading
and
liking).
I
am
mortified.
I
joked
about
it
last
night
because
I
was
too
shocked
to
say
anything.
We
have
met
twice.
We
have
become
very
good
friends.
I
feel
very
happy,
and
to
tell
you
the
truth
kinda
honoured
to
be
your
friend.
As
I
have
said
on
twitter
and
in
my
articles,
I
am
a
huge
fan
of
your
books
and
your
political
views.
Even
other
than
that,
talking
to
you
about
my
life
has
given
me
a
new
outlook
on
certain
things.
Your
innate
decency
and
moral
compass
has
made
me
rethink
a
few
things.
Thank
you
Shashi...for
being
in
my
life,
long
distance
dost
sahi.
Some
things
are
hard
for
people
to
fathom,
and
come
to
terms
with..life
teaches
us
to
be
one-dimensional
and
suspicious
of
all
we
can't
see.
Sometimes,
the
communication
gap
between
people
becomes
so
huge
-
for
one
reason
or
the
other
-
that
each
word
is
doubted,
each
truth
becomes
shallow.
But
in
the
end
only
truth
works.
So
be
yourself..you
are
wonderful.
InshAllah
things
will
work
out
between
the
two
of
you.
About
me
being
the
reason
you
have
problems
with
your
wife...main
kya
kahun.
I
don't
even
want
to
think
what
it
would
do
to
my
very
young
kid.
So
I
guess
I
was
right
all
my
life.
Friendship
between
a
man
and
a
woman
will
always
be
labelled
incorrectly.
And
even
the
woman
who's
the
love
of
your
life
will
doubt
your
word
against
very
circumstantial
evidence.
You
are
in
my
prayers,
Shashi.
May
there
be
peace
in
your
life
and
marriage.
Deeply
sorry....

Thank you for these very kind and thoughtful words, Mehr. I'm afraid it is sometimes difficult for people to believe that such friendships are possible or that intellectual companionship alone could have made us close friends in the very short time since we first met. I do love her deeply and it saddens me that she does not believe me.
In fact Sunanda has asked that we not be in touch any more. Getting her well and reducing stress on her is my major priority right now and I hope you will understand and forgive me if I stop our phone and email exchanges. To my mind you will always be a valued friend and I hope the day will come when all 3 of us can meet and put this misunderstanding behind us.
