I love this girl, humble, loving, caring, but not from a good family background.
My parents who understand a lot of things favour me, but to a certain extent. They get a little upset when they look at my choice of the girl along with her family. Unfortunately majority of eastern culture still value family, since they say it is not the husband and wife but also the parents as well as the other family members.
I m the only child where my parents get more careful in my choice of marriage. The girl is also the only child of her parents.
The girl does not have a very attractive appearance, which certainly put off my parents when they saw her, apart from this the girl has not studied much to which i told her to further complete the studies, as i will provide her complete support and help on this. She has not done this yet and this is again putting my parents off.
now only thing attached is love. considering my parents who r very old and i love them a lot too!

Think very carefully about this decision. Do you really love this girl? Give it time but make sure you provide plenty of opportunity for your parents to get to know this girl. Find something you think they both have in common and work on that. I'm sure if your parents value your happiness and see that you are serious and truly in love they will come around. All the best!!

Your problem is not that eastern cultures still value family. Your problem is that your parents do not respect your ability to choose your wife. That has nothing to do with family value. If they love and respect you, they can give you advice, but should not give you a hard time once you've made your decision. As for you, if she plans to finish her education, what's the hurry to get married? Give it some time and hopefully, over time, everybody will come around.

Personally i would never marry someone my parents would want me despite the fact that i also adore mt parents.. It's my life and my feelings.. if i love someone and want to marry him i will do it.. i know my parents love me and even if they dont like this man they will be there for me and they will be happy that i am happy.. I think you should do what your heart tells you and try to convince your parents about your choice... if u marry someone u dont love u will not be truly happy and u will always regret for making such a decision just to make someone else happy.. If you explain to your parents how you feel maybe they will finally understand .. just follow ur heart.......

You are your own person. After all, you're the one whose marrying the girl not them. They will simply have to accept with her.
Talk to your parents. Make them understand that YOU love them and you know they only want the best for you but this girl is the one!also that you have a life and is old enough to make your own desicions.

Make sure she's the right girl to be with for the rest of your life, before making that commitment. Why don't you just hold off on marrying her for a while?

i think you should do what you want. if you love her you should stay with her you are the one that is going to live with her, too many people live in regret when they let someone else make decisions in life for them you only live once live happy with the choice you make

It's YOUR life. Don't fall for your parents' emotional blackmail or you will end up regretting it. They are not marrying your girlfriend, YOU are! If they really love you, they will understand.
