Sorry to hear that
I say show her that he is a 35 year old bum in a way she will understand.
But you know what maybe she is getting married because she is pregnant with his son (u never know, Ask her)
If that's not it then keep trying to explain to her why they shouldn't get married.Keep bugging her.Ask her why she is getting married with him.
And if she still doesn't listen to you, just stop tryin because you have done all that you could do.Just let her get married.
SOME PEOPLE JUST HAVE TO LEARN THE HARD WAY!

i assume it relies upon why you're lifeless set on getting married at the two 18 or 19, as adversarial to twenty or 35 or 50? Why 18 or 19? i think of there is experience interior the completed 'age is in basic terms a extensive determination' argument, yet that the opposing argument is warranted additionally. there are such particularly some Hollywood video clips accessible and classified ads and photos accessible that 'sell' human beings (women specifically) on wanting to speed up and get married and specifically because of the fact the assumption of marriage is painted totally as one super romantic walk down the aisle with flora and alluring clothing and fortuitously ever after. What they do no longer make sparkling, is that marriage is approximately long term dedication, which demands artwork, and boiling that down there is no longer something romantic approximately it. Do the two human beings interior the courting understand what's in contact in creating an prolonged term dedication artwork? That it takes 2 finished human beings to return jointly (which demands time additionally to acquire--emotional adulthood). that when the marriage bells have stopped ringing, there will be discussions approximately funds and spending conduct (whether the two have an identical philosophy- i.e. keep vs. spend). And discussions approximately if the two elect infants, whether or no longer they are on an identical internet site approximately issues like disciplining. so which you be conscious of, there is no longer something incorrect with getting married at 20, or 30 or 70. Kudos and congratulations while you're between the minority who've sat down and taken care of by all the significant issues and understand why you have become married. For one element, making that dedication for the 'incorrect' motives isn't honest to infants who would persist with - as to placing an occasion on what wholesome relationships appear as if. Sorry for the size. no longer being a downer, in basic terms a realist. The romance isn't the glue that retains an prolonged term wholesome courting jointly, it is the mutual comprehend and love and have confidence and a few style of settlement on center values and existence changing judgements.

You stay out of the way and let your sister make her own mistakes... At 19 she has a lot of life ahead of her so this may be a rough ruined chapter but it won't ruin her entire life..

Don't be overly melodramatic a marriage that doesn't work out isn't the end of the world... It's a speed bump on the road of life...

I suspect there is little you or anyone can legally do. That is why the have the saying "love is blind".

The only thing you might succeed at this stage would be to try and encourage her to delay any marriage.

"New Love" feeling can last as long as a year and usually diminish. If you can delay her that long perhaps her blind infatuation may diminish.

Sorry to hear that, but your sister makes her own decisions. You cant tell her what to do and by my experience if you keep on her about it you will push her farther into his arms. She has to make her own mistakes and when she does you and your family just have to be there to pick up the pieces. Good Luck

Unfortunately there isn't much else you can do. She is an adult capable of making that sort of decision whether it is a good one or not. Always be there for her regardless of what happens, especially if her relationship does fall apart with this guy.

How do you know they haven't kissed or said I love you?? Do you spend each moment they spend together with them?

Let her live her life, you've already tried talking to her about it.

This will be a harsh lesson for her if it does not last.

Whatever your sister wants she will do, I'm sure, just like the rest of us do. As long as you have explained your doubts and your worries to her about it, there is nothing much you can do. Just be there for her regardless. Never ever ever say " I told you so".

Marriage is a big thing, and it sounds like the circumstances you're talking about are not ideal.
Sit her down and have a talk with her when she is in a relaxed mood.

Unfortunately... if youve already told her how you feel... you just need to let her learn on her own.. theres not much more you can do. Some lessons are just something people have to experience themselves...
