It seems the expectations of your siblings matter so much to you in this way that you would rather date someone they approve of than someone they don't approve of. Isn't that already an obvious red flag for you? Set the woman free so she can go find herself a man who does not need the approval of your siblings, please. undecided

Op, your siblings concerns are valid. You're only writing these because you're both far, by the time you live together, then your love will be tested.
My advice is seek Godly counsel. If I were in your shoes, I'll talk to God about it. If I get the conviction of the Holy Spirit, I'll proceed & ask God to touch the hearts of my siblings so they agree.

Stop hiding behind the mentions of God when you all know that at the end of the day, it is all your very own decisions to make. undecided

God will not come down from heaven to make decisions for you. It is your responsibility not God.

Don't stress yourself. This is how e dey be wen you won marry person wey your family no expect. But if you go through what others like you did then they just have to respect your decision and remember that you are an adult

You haven't met her in real life, so there should be no talk of marriage for now. Go and meet her in real life, see her in person. Come back home and have a long think (over several weeks) and speak to your family again.

Best of luck to you, no matter your decision

Does the lady have money or is her family rich?? This is what women will ask about you if you are on a wheel chair before marrying you.

Don't go and marry a poor girl on a wheel chair ooo. Or you listen to your sister. The only time a woman will give a man good advice in such matter is when it involves her son or brother or father. Better listen

This is a very big one and is good to fall in love

My question is can you alone take care of your family with the challenges that even both parents are working but can't still take care of family

You see most people getting married to PWD, majority of them are from a wee to do family and so for the sake of their child, they will provide enough support and I mean financial support to breech that disability

So if you are rich enough and will not complain go ahead

If she us from a rich family and you have their support go ahead

If you are struggling with source of income and still find it difficult to meet up, think twice

Whatever decisions you take will either help you or put you to worried state of mind

Marriage, is a place where you carry your load by yourself after wedding every one leaves you to paddle your own canoe
