Re: Arranged to marry at 16, not feeling right...
Crystal have you asked your mom why she wants you to marry your cousin? If so, what did she say? And her telling you that he's rich and he's your cousin is not a reason. What are her reasons for marrying you off at such a young age to someone you don't care for?
Try asking her that question. And ask her if she's afraid that you'd end up with a white person. And steer the discussion from there.
You said your mom is religious. What about you. I'm not judging here. I'm trying to get an idea of your priorities to understand the situation better. Would you be against marrying a muslim guy?
