Are you from a race which honors parent's decision in marriage? If you are, it can be tough. I am from Asia, and for us, parent's opinions matters a lot because our culture embraces extended families. But in the end, you should always marry a person whom you truly love. That love would not be the excitement you feel for each other, but rather love with commitment. Commitment to each other in times of difficulty, especially when the infatuation you felt as gf/bf dies down, when you're faced with marital problems, when you're in financial crisis. Deciding whether that girl is the right one for you is a tough call, and I advice you to have a longer engagement before deciding to marry. Parent's choice are a small percentage of the things you should consider, but you need to listen to what they have to say. Parents, in most cultures, want the best for their sons/daughters, thus, you're parents may feel protective of you. If you've decided that the girl is the one for you, given all the premise I've given, then go for it. Having identified her strengths that will compliment your weaknesses will give you a better chance of defending her, and gaining their approval. Sometimes, it just needs time for them to accept her. Good luck to the both of you =)

When you're both over 18, you can marry whatever girl you want and your parents can't stop you. But don't get married at 18 just because you can, wait until you're ready.

Do you have a good-paying job to support her when you're both married or do you expect your parents and hers to support you until you get a job? Think about it logically and stop behaving like a foolish child.
