I am amazed that it is happening to guys too. I really wish if I can move out, but that will create drama too.
Now my mother are forcing me again to agree for rishtas in Pakistan which I really don’t want. I don’t want to bring someone here, and help them settle down.

You will just have to resist and stand ground. My parents tried for years for one of my siblings to get married in Pak to a cousin, caused a lot of rifts especially since neither of them wanted to get married but his family pushed so he could get sponsored and my parents pushed because “we know him”. It caused major anxiety for all the parties but eventually he grew some courage and decided to marry his classmate whom he liked so the silsila resolved itself but those 5 years or so will never come back. Oh well.
