My father always want to hook me up with some guy

Hi swetashah, I don't want to say anything to disrespect your culture.. But I have never been in agreement with parents chosing a mate for their children...I don't even think your parents can even know what their children likes or dislikes...Bu I guess in your culture, it dosen't matter what the child think....So so sorry for you...Have you tried speaking to them in reference to your future???/ if not perhaps I suggest you try it..... what will happen if you don't follow their pick of a husbnd for you??? will they renounce you...??

Yeah it is your life and you are the one who will have to live with the decision you make. They only have your best interest at heart. You should really sit down with them and let them know how you feel. That you love them and respect them but in the end it is your decision to make and you want them to love and respect whether you choose someone they really like or not.

Hello swetashah, I think you have the right to make a choice for yourself, they don't understand that marriage is something that shouldn't be taken to a rush. it's personal choice and something that you WANT in life and not something that you're parents wants.this is the era were people should respect our rights to be single or committed. it's hard to believe that this is still happening in India.

I know in the Indian culture families arrange marriages because I have friend who are Indian. My one friend met a man that her parents approved of on her own and they got married however my other friend who wanted to attend school here in America met a man she liked (he was white) and her parents told her she could not date the guy she liked because she was already promised to a man in India. She told the guy in India that she has a bf here in America and the guy admited he liked someone else. Needless to say my friend dated the man she liked and her parents did not approve so she went against her parents wishes. I would be honest with your parents and tell them how you want to find a man yourself and promise them any man you date you will introduce to them and allow them to get to know the boyfriend first.

You're parents just really want the best one for you. Though it's very difficult to understand because they are not the one who's going to be with than one they have wanted. It is important to have a husband that can give all of your needs, yet love makes relationship stay for long. Just use your heart and brain when choosing for your partner in life, because it's not like buying something and returning it back if it doesn't really fit.
