क्या जात-पात विवाह में बाधा है? | DeepAnswers by Deep Trivedi | A595

Описание: Question: Sir, I want to marry someone but my parents are not agreeing to it because we both belong to different castes. My family members believe that if we get married, their reputation will get tarnished in the society. My family wants me to have an arranged marriage and my parents have come down to blows. Also, my siblings are also not supporting me. The man I want to get married to is, well-educated, intelligent and holding a good job, which is what my parents are also looking for in my groom. We both are successful but my parents are not agreeing for the match only because of the difference in caste. Please tell me how do I convince my parents? If I listen to my parents and marry a boy of their choice then how will I honour such a relationship which is against my wishes? Sir, I love my parents very much and cannot see them unhappy but I cannot even destroy my life. I am very troubled! Sometimes I feel like committing suicide is only the way out but then I remember your words that a human life is the most important and I don’t want to ruin this life. Sir, I am of a rebellious nature but I cannot tolerate dominance. My conscience does not permit me to get married to anyone else unwillingly. I do not understand that what is the importance of a caste in a marriage? If there were any flaws in the man I want to marry then I would have willingly agreed to my parents’ decision but when I know that my choice is good for me in every way then how do I leave him? We seek true love in our life and now when I have found it then why should I leave him only because he is not from my caste?
