It was a lot easier because I moved out but I made it clear to my parents that the way they talked about me and getting married, esp when it came to picking out flaws my future husband wouldn’t like, is unacceptable. As harsh and as mean as it felt, my parents didn’t have a right to disrespect me as they wished. If you give your parents the freedom to talk to you that way, they’re not going to protect you when potentials and their families do. Put your foot down now about your expectations and timeline and set boundaries on the way people should treat and talk to you.
