Hey guys,I have a girlfriend and she's 2 years older than me I like her a lot and she does too,but the problem is our parents are against this,and I really am inclined to marry her,age doesn't really matter to us,I need help,how can I convince my parents ? , because they're very much constrained by a pharisaical society(India) and they think it's beyond the "norm" to marry someone older...sigh please help!!

well, in my opinion, two years isnt really that big a deal. and besides, in love, age doesnt matter right? well, in connection to your problem with going against the social norms in india, maybe you can just stand up for it and defend yourself and explain it well to your family. im sure they can understand that eventually. :) good luck! :)

The problem is,I was brought up in a very nuclear family,now if I go against them,I'd have to live alone and everything may just collapse,that's what worries me
