I need to VENT!

Re: I need to VENT!

So i've also been reading up on everything that's been happening to you, and I have one question:
Why haven't you cancelled your passport yet? or "lost" it?
Or even better, why haven't you just put your foot down, and said "no, i'm not going to pakistan, and there's nothing you can do about it."
They can't physically force you to do anything, especially in the UK. In Pakistan however, you can easily be coerced into just about anything.
As horrible as this sounds, your parents obviously DO NOT know what's best for you, so if you're trying to be the good daughter, and abide by the Pakistani culture, realize that it is only YOU who will be hurt in the end. My mother had a forced marriage like this, it resulted in her being ditched in a country that she knew nothing about, strapped with two toddlers. I'm not saying that the same will happen to you, but if you do go to Pakistan, and by some chance you are some how forced into marriage, the consequences will be catastrophic. Be wise, and put your foot down now, or your life could seriously be damaged.

Hiya sorry to bring up and old thread but OP if you still use the forums, what happened to you in the end? I hope it turned out well :)

Re: I need to VENT!

Why do you need someone to babysit you? Why can't you take care of yourself when your parents are visiting Pakistan?

If you are old enough to get a job, then you can take care of yourself too.
