Re: forced marriage

i'm being forced to mari m cuzn from pakistan and i don't want to because i love someone else and he even knows of this but wont stop the wedding

Re: forced marriage

Losingfaith isnt there a way u cud speak 2 ur family and explain 2 them ur situation. Are they forcing u bcoz of the reason that u love someone else?
I hope that everything works out well 4 u inshallah.

Re: forced marriage

Hunny, if he's not stopping the wedding, then he's not worth ure love :( If he did genuinely care, he'd try to step in and do something but he's not. Trust me.. but whatever u do do NOT marry ure cuzn frm Pak because ure being pushed into it by ur parents and jnust for a passport. It's not right at all. Forced marriages are haram, whether by physical force, or as more often with us desis, emotional blackmail..

Re: forced marriage

if they r forcing u in the marriage then obviously they don't care about your feeling.

i say if you inform the human right or Police that you are being forced into something whhich you don't want to do.

Please Do Not sacrifice yourself, any relationship is not worth it.

Re: forced marriage

Hey-- get out of this situation like NOW. There must be someone-- a relative, a friend who could help you out by way of talking on your behalf? And I don't understand what you mean when you say "Im being forced." Who's forcing you? You know very well that no one can actually force you, don't you? And if it really gets bad, u know that u can always call the police. Infact let slip around ur family that u might do somethin like that, if they're pushing you inspite of knowing you don't wish to get married. This way, they might rethink and you won't actually have to make a call. Where's the guy ur in love with? Isn't he doin something?

And dun worry, things will be fine : hug:

Re: forced marriage

call up your most gossipy cousin and tell her you are being forced into a marriage (or atleast threaten your parents/cousin you will do so)
dont go to pakistan
stand up for what u believe in. have an open discussion with your parents about this. they'll eventually understand.

Re: forced marriage

Re: forced marriage

Re: forced marriage

^thats inside news,hehe.. wait am i mixing her up with the other girl, let me double check..

Re: forced marriage

why wait for him to do it? why not do it yourself?

Re: forced marriage

Could you please explain how it's 'snatching your faith' away from you?

Faith in marriage? Faith in men? Faith in Pakistan? Faith in parents?

Re: forced marriage

Im guessing faith in men and parents, since hthe one she loves wont’ stand up for her, and her parents are forcing her into it.. :teary1:

Seriously, if u dont stop it right now and u do get married, then dont’ come crying here.. noones gnna feel sorry for you :frowning:

Re: forced marriage

I know how u feel. I have been through the same stuff with my parents 5 yrs ago.
It took me 4 yrs and ALOT of headaches, fights and tears to get out of the nikkah with my cousin in pk. it was also a go abroad visa chakkar!!!!

DONT GO TO PAKISTAN!!thats my advice to you. just dont go. u will alone with tons of weird relatives. stay where u r and dump ur bf if he is not strong enough to stand by ur side now!!!

Re: forced marriage

you're in the west and you're being 'forced' ? gimme a break! no one can do that to you but ONLY you! call up the police if your parents don't want to listen to you. khatam baat!
