Q2A
Got a quick question from Monika......
giving us an update from a previous question and asking how to support her sister who is expected to make an arranged marriage although she is in love with someone else
This is our reply.......
Hi Monika
We remember you and we are glad that you were not pregnant after all, and we hope your
medical problem is cleared up now too.
It's good that your sister could help and support you then, and now you are doing the
same concerning her arranged marriage. If she really is in love with someone else and he
is in love with her, so that she could not be happy in, the arranged marriage she needs to
tell people! We appreciate this might be very difficult and cause a lot of upset but better
now rather than she and her new husband not being able to make a successful marriage
together. Would your parents approve of the person your sister really loves? Do you they
know about him? Wouldn't they want her to be happy? Would she and the guy she is in
love with want to marry? These are the sort of things she needs to think about in deciding
how to talk about this with them and with her proposed groom. Are they any other family
members or friends she could confide in who might support her? We hope these ideas
will help her work out how best to convince your Mom and Dad about how she feels.
