It is very painful for me these days as I am a 26 years old girl now & my parents are like after my life just because they want me to get married & the problem is that I am in love & committed to a boy who is 24 years old his parents are not ready to talk anything regarding marriage because they think that it is too early for him to get married also her sister is about 26 yrs of age his parents are not ready to meet my parents as well.The boy is supportive there are some problems actually my parents think that I am stupid that I trust him & I should not marry him & there is no point in waiting for him because I am overage now. But in any worst case I just can't let him go. Actually once there was an incident one year back when my parents were forcing me that I should ask that boy to make his parents meet my parents but, as his parents are not agreeing for the marriage so he unintentionally lied to my parents & he never wanted to do all this.Due to this my parents think that he is not good & they are forcefully trying to fix my marriage somewhere else. Please help as that boy is working & he has taken a flat on installment basis. But, he needs some time till the time we get possession of that house & he is trying hard to convince his parents . But that will take some time. But, the issue is getting worst my parents are not ready to wait please help.Please revert asap.Please.My mother is behaving very badly towards this

I recommend you try to move to a Western country such as the US if at all possible. Here we marry who we want, when we're ready. Family may not like it but they have no say in the matter - it's our own adult decision.

Otherwise continue to resist or push to marry the man you love.

Ok, your parents are not wrong at all. They want to see you settled with a guy who can take responsibility. It seems that his parents not care for you so now it's up to you and him. Both can get civil marriage, later tell your parents and his parents, things will be resolved soon. I guess you can wait for another year, convince your parents,
