| Help! My Parents Want Me To Marry Someone I Don't Like. by Toniaeloho(f): 11:12am On Nov 21, 2016 |
A man in his late twenties approached me to marry him. I was not attracted to him neither was he a very friendly person. I told my mom about it and she advised me to think about it carefully. After much thought, I decided to refuse because he seemed in hurry to marry me even when he barely knew me. My parents got so angry with me. They said I should say agree because he is God fearing, has a good job( he owns a school) and they like him. I still refused , the man told me to marry him because he likes me and my parents like him. I tried reasoning with him but he told me that in those days girls marry men their parents approve. My parents have threatened to not support my schooling if I refuse. I have tried to love this guy but I just can't. My parents esp my mom like him too much. I am not allowed to say a bad word against him. I am in my final year at school and 19 year old. What should I do? 8 Likes 4 Shares |

Lastking147:  her parents must have a reason for this.OP, are you fat? Ugly? Deformed? Single mom? Are your parents broke? There has to be a rationale behind this. There's a reason your folks are insisting on you getting married so soon and to someone you don't like. You might wanna find out. 69 Likes 3 Shares |

 So, This is the 21st century. People Marry for love... Not because your Parents say he's good for you. what do they even know? last I checked, maturity isn't a yardstick for wisdom. We've got dumb, Old people too. Sweety, If you don't love this-this Grandpa, don't marry HIM! you'd only be miserable for life. I mean, You're Still young. Really young... This is the stage Where you should fall deeply in love, Have fun, Explore the world. Your parents threats are just barks. I guess? they can't kill you. if they're Your real parents, Then, They won't do you anything. except, well, except they're really evil, Shallow and don't care about your own feelings..DON'T MARRY HIM! Pleeeeease! Sheeesh! 28 Likes 1 Share |

Toniaeloho: TBH, I think there's something you're not letting out. What kind of honour would an early marriage bring? Are your folks still living in the stone age? Look mami, its your life.. Your future.. Its in your hands. Your folks won't endure a painful marriage with you. I think you should do what makes you u happy. You shouldn't be scared about their threat, you are already in your finals and truth be told, our parents love to make empty threats. They'll eventually come around. 27 Likes 3 Shares |

this sounds like a story straight out of a Korean drama. when things like this happen, they blatantly refuse their parents and after a final show down, they threaten to do something stupid which causes their parents to cave in. and the movie ends with their true love... 7 Likes 1 Share |

Hmm. There's no issue as tiring to me as that which involved parents and children. This is because after God, my loyalty lies with my parents. Op, yours is a very serious matter. Unfortunately, your parents have bluntly refused to respect your wish and choice for reasons best known to them. However, as complicated as the issue may be, I'd not advice you to disobey them, neither will I tell you to please them at your expense. Here's my take. Do all you can to make them (especially your mum) see reasons with you, that the proposed union will only bring you unhappiness. Appeal to their emotion. If after all entreaties they still remain adamant, use your own initiative in making your final decision. Good luck! 7 Likes |
