My Family Wants Me to Marry My Cousin, and I Do Not Feel Able to Refuse Honestly

Question

My paternal cousin is a good, respectable woman, but I have no feelings toward her. My family is putting me under intense pressure, and I am afraid of embarrassing everyone. The proposal has become a heavy family burden.

عضو · Accepted Answer

No one deserves to marry a person who does not want them. If you agree without conviction, you will make both yourself and her suffer.

عضو · Answer

I refused a marriage within the family, and it was difficult. But marrying without conviction would have caused a far greater disaster. Tell your family calmly, 'I want her to be happy with someone else.'
