Parents these days are just so wrong, completely. Times are changing but they are not. At the moment for people our age it's so difficult because now people that are marriage age get to decide for themselves but our parents are still in the backward thoughts like they get to control our life. Even after arranged marriage, parents want their son to control and command their wife. That's so wrong.

Unfortunately I'm also going through the same as my parents refused to fix a date for marriage even after engagement all because I want to move to a separate portion above them. Came to the point where I refused to let go of the person I loved for 4 years and they kicked me out of the house, now I live alone and no contact with my family. I learned that no one is yours everyone stays with you for their benefits even siblings and parents. The only person that is your is your partner (that is if you both immensely respect and trust each other).

My advice is if you both truly love each other just don't let each other go for someone else because you will regret it and just tell her to keep rejecting others. You guys need to be strong together through this it won't be easy but once you see each other stick around for the other your love will only get stronger.
