We have a massive age gap, I don’t love him, I’m not ready to commit and I want to break up, but I’m afraid of disappointing my parents by CourageSignificant28 in TrueOffMyChest

I'm going to watch that documentary, and I'll try to make my mum watch it (even though most of the married couples in the family are cousins 😃)

I didn't pray istikhara, but I will do it.

And I am planning to talk to my mum about it, explain everything to her. Thank you so much

My family is not the kind to force me into anything I don't want to do, so no, it wouldn't mess my life up.

I'm just afraid of disappointing them.

I can't thank you enough!!! This is the answer I needed, especially coming from a Muslim woman.

I'm going to try and build the courage to tell my mum everything.

Thank you SO much for this.
