Some Parents And Forced Marriage by Badfinga: 9:19am On Jun 13, 2015
Nowadays we see marriages crashing like aeroplanes piloted by depressed pilots.One begins to wonder the depth to which these marriages were founded or built.I am of the school of thought that when it comes to matters of the heart(marriage),parents should restrict or limit the level of their interference to that of advice but not compeling someone against his/her own wish.I was inspired to write this piece because a female friend of mine is in a dilemma.Her parents wants her to marry someone she barely know.As a tradition in her family,she does not have a say on the issue.She just have to accept.Now the big problem is that she is contemplating suicide,running away from home or agree to the marriage and then kill the man thereafter.As I type this,her phone is switched off and am afraid.What advice do you have for this lady? Am running out of ideas already

Well if she doesn't love the guy then she shouldn't marry him
Its that simple

Her parents would cant chain her down or force her .. Shebi she will say i dont .. Finish .
Y would she kill her self when its not like she 16, she needs to put her foot down n stop acting like a child .. ... My opinion oh lol

Dude this is 21st century and people should be allowed to exercise their liberty free from constraints as long as it posses no threat to another. Marriage is very delicate and as such requires the exercise of our own will and volition. Furthermore getting married is not compulsory.

I dreamt about you last night.

I saw a wedding you are the bride, ofcourse I'm the groom. After the whole ceremony we were alone.

You were about to UnCloth ( at this point my ROD is harder than CALCULUS) suddenly I woke up, that my cockblock room-mate woke me saying " guy wake we get 7-9am lecture"

But some parents will not reason that at all.Once you go against their wish,you hear something like I will disown you
