My parents don't want me to marry her because of her background

  • March 29, 2016 9:37 PM CEST
    I met a lady recently and brought her to my parents, after her visit my parents began to interrogate me about her background and having discovered she came from a humble family they began to pressure me not to go ahead with her. They said they prefer I marry from a family with great affluence since we are also wealthy. Please what should I do?

    If you are convinced she is the one for you and you have peace about it, simply keep on keeping on. Your mum and siblings should be the first persons you should persuade because if they buy into your idea, they can influence your Dad. Also take it to God in prayers and be resolute about it because they are also watching to see if you will cower.

    May God help you

    I believe that is not a concrete reason to make them say no to the relationship. I would advice you convince them and make them see that you love her. Pray about it too. I pray for God's wisdom for you.
