telling parents about the girl i love!!!?

Parents have a way of coming around when they realize that you aren't going to give up something/one you love. It might take some time, and frustration on both sides, but if you thought that your parents were complete monsters that didn't care at all about your happiness, you wouldn't be asking this question.

You're entitled to changing views - that's what youth is after all. Don't worry, I'm sure that your parents didn't want to believe that you never wanted to get married anyway, so that's a positive point!!

Take this from personal experience, whatever you do, act and react with maturity and responsability when dealing with this matter. If you want your parents to change their minds about what is best for you, you need to prove to them that you are mature enough to know what's best for yourself.

As much as you think this is just about you and your family, don't forget that this has become about you AND your girlfriend. Your parents will be judging quite her quite severly ( as many parents do...) and your girlfriend will need to help you. I'm not suggesting she change her personality, but she will need to show the utmost respect and courtesy towards your family, and know that if the family appreciate her, regardless of their views of marriage, the battle will be half won.

For light amusement on a subject close to home...

Surely, your parents should'nt take comments like that so seriously about you never wanting to get married. However, if you feel that this girl is the one and you love her, then I suggest that you introduce her as such. But, you might want to tell them about her first before they meet that way any would-be offensive or negative comments would be out of the way first. I think that you should simply tell them that you're in love with this girl whom you care very deeply for and finally your intentions. Then tell them you prefer not to have an arranged marriage because such commitment should be meaningful, and sacred and between two hearts that chose each other. And, that you ask for their support. (not approval) Good Luck!!!!

your parents might prefer arrange marriage. but you wont like the girl they choose as you are already in love. i know you have to take a bod step first in speaking about this issue to your parents wheather they like it or not. secondly make a sure decesion if you want to be commited to your decesion. I have seen coward people getting married to the choice of their parents but their marriage has been failure. I not saying parents make wrong choice but you will not be able t take any other relation if she is in your life

I think you need to sit down with your parents and discuss this with them.It is your life.You have to be happy.I dont know much about arranged marriages but i have wittnessed one.The man was very unhappy and cheated on his wife.She was not from this country and spoke no English and he cursed her all the time and she had no idea what he was saying.

This questions depends on your age and place in life. If you are under 20 yrs old keep it from them. If you are over 21 and think you may have a future with this woman, tell them.

tell them, bottom line, if they dont accept, then forget about them, i know that is mean to say, but if you love a girl and they cant accept that, then dont even bother with them, its your life and we are out of the dark ages, but if they really love you as their child, then they will be happy, thats how i see it, hope this helps
