Why don't you love this guy, my dear op?

Marry him..the love would grow afterwards...!!

Don't say "I'm too young".."there is plenty more time"..because those are exactly what sister meg said and today she is 49, No husband, No children...

And forget about that your poor coursemate you are dating....this is real life!! wink

You must love poverty, since you find something wrong with people who love money.

Ugly thing.

If your mum says she's not going to fund your school until you marry him and you're in your final year, it's time to change to the "survival to the fittest" mode. In this kind of situation, you need to think logically.

I would say marry him until you graduate and become independent then divorce him undecided

If dem wan show say dem wicked, you go show dem who wicked pass grin cheesy

grin her parents must have a reason for this.


OP, are you fat? Ugly? Deformed? Single mom?
Are you 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.
She should simply honour her father and her mother for her days to be long...

Since you don't love him you you can't marry him but take it easy with your parent and let them know it is not good to force you to marry somebody you have no feeling for

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.

We seem to be passing through the same issue although mine is a bit different.

Give it a good thought, Marriage is another school, it is not something dependent on third parties, even your parents are third parties when the game begins, but sometime their insight might be of tremendous help because of the obscurity that lies in the mind of a 19 year old

but in the long run, it is so much about your own happiness at the decision you have made

there is nothing as good as asking God in prayer for Guidance, He does guide

you also need to be emotionally prepared for marriage or else you can ruin it in days just after you get into it

A friend of mine found herself in such a predicament and got married at 20yrs. After giving birth to 3 children she went berserk by abandoning her husband and children 12yrs later.Her regret was that she rushed into te whole marriage thing with no experience in relationships.Right now she is kpanshing all over the place meanwhile the husband is a wonderful person.Girl you really need some soul searching...

I have to be brutal, your mother is selfish and greedy. She is looking to title of "my son in law owns a school" She cares not about your happiness but hers. Stick to your gun and do not give her the chance. Your happiness comes first. That is how one bastard got into my friend's home and even duped them in the process which led to their mum's death as a result of the money lost cos she fell in the bathroom thinking and this also led to health complication. Greed is bad!

You never know what might be the next thing you will face... if you do not have any feelings for him, do not start anything. Let your mum do whatever she likes.
