Marriage Guardianship and Unjust Refusal

My Mother Rejects the Entire Idea of My Marriage, Not Just One Suitor

I am 32 and want to marry; I am not a child. Every time someone approaches, my mother rejects him. Once she says he is not good enough, another time that his family is unknown, and another time that she dislikes his appearance. I do not know what to do, and my life feels suspended.

Try asking your paternal or maternal aunt to mediate between you. Sometimes a mother listens more readily to another woman in the family.

This situation hurt to read because I went through it. Try to understand her real fear. Sometimes a mother fears separation from her daughter rather than the man himself. Speak openly with her, heart to heart, without mentioning any particular suitor.
