We both are 27 and struggling since a year to convince parents of love marriage. We don't see any spot light till now. Both our parents are equally stubborn respective to caste, prestige, society, relatives and so many other things.

We both have elder sisters who are advising us to sacrifice our love so that their in laws would not treat them bad! Also they say they will never talk to us in life because it is disrespecting their in laws! We are very confused and don't know what to do.

Every time I think of separating from him I feel like hell and sometimes killing myself. I can't imagine my life without him. Please help me

Would you two leave and start over elsewhere?

What is he willing to do for this love marriage if the parents cannot be convinced? Ask him.

You both get civil marriage and get separated from your both families. Live independently.

You should have both asked permission before you got too involved, After they say no, you either break up and let parents arrange a marriage for you, at 27 it is past time for that almost,

Arrnage marriages is common, and you are going against many beliefs in this, I see no reason they ever will, so it is your choice to break from parents and family or break from boyfriend
