re: I said no to marriage with my cousin - and getting emotional blackmail…
I work in the legal field and personally know of cases where girls were taken to Pakistan/India under circumstances identical to yours. Even as a U.S. citizen, no matter what information you leave with “groups”…please realize that once in Pakistan, you’re completely at the mercy of your parents/family. IF they choose to hold you hostage, take away your passport, abuse you physically/emotionally, and even threaten death…it’s not like the the forced marriage unit can just go and pick you up. They have to find you first! And who knows where your parents/family will take you once you’re there. Often in these situations, a HUGE problem is finding out where the girl is being kept since the parents/families have other “locations”.
If STRONGLY advise you to re-think travelling to Pakistan under the current circumstances. This has a strong potential of turning VERY nasty.
