How can i get my daughter to marry a man i have chosen?
My whole life daughter’s life I have been preparing for her wedding
I always cared for her at all times and prepared for her marriage
And I found her the perfect man and it was all taken care of
He was perfect- rich, famous, young, and noble
But my fool daughter looks at this dream scenario and says
“I wont marry, im not in love with him im to young”
I spent so much time preparing
What shall I do?

It is obvious to me you are from a culture that believes this is what should be done. I suggest to you that you need to challenge this belief system seriously. Times have changed and your daughter is growing up in a different world. I suggest you let your daughter’s life take a natural path and relax and perhaps down the road you might want to introduce her to someone but these days women have choices and they do not always choose to marry and have a family. If she says she is young, she probably is not even ready to consider such a thing, so let her be.
You can keep asking, but this is just controlling and you don’t have a right to ask her to do this.
I’m guessing you’re a troll.
You realize that this is her life and allow her to make her own choices. Invest time in your own life.
Maybe your daughters happiness should be a consideration? Or are you just concerned with you, or your happiness? Are they compatible (i.e. have the same interests)?
you are controlling and your daughter is standing up to you. you can’t force her to marry someone she doesn’t love so don’t try unless you want to make your daughter miserable the rest of her life.
this is the 21st Century.. women choose for themselves now.
u probaly mean well but look at her from her point of veiw, se has to spend the rest of her life with this man, and if she doesnt love him she will be miserable, you are lucky she realizes how young she is and wants to wait, you wouldnt want her to miss out on things an either grow up with regrets or be a bad wife and mother….let her choose her own husband, you should want her to be happy
I am thinking that you just want to control your daughter for the rest of her life. What would you say if your daughter wanted you to marry who she wanted you to? Would you be happy with that? I think that you would then think twice. If my mum did that I would tell her to get f*#@#$, and i would never see her again. So I hope that you take this advise and stop making her do what you want as you will lose her and you will regret if.
I agree with you daughter: She doesn’t love him and she’s too young. Why can’t you respect that. I don’t want sound hateful or anything, but you are selfish. Are you doing this for you?
Mom-Im afraid your going to have to back off on this one and let your daughter choose her husband when she is ready. Because you think he is perfect doesnt mean that he is perfect. there is more to a man than being rich and famous. is he an abuser? Does he do drugs? Just remember that she is the one that has to be happy and live with this guy not you. I understand how you feel. The boyfriend my daugher has chosen is totally not the one I would have chose for her, but he doesnt make me happy but he makes her happy and that is whats important in the long run.
Read "The MacGregor Brides" from Nora Roberts.
Marry him yourself!!!
Allow your daughter to marry the man that she chooses. You had a chance to live your life now allow her to live hers. Butt out!
I’m guessing this is a joke, right? If not, get a life! Even better, why don’t you get married to this perfect guy that you like so much???!!
Your daughter will find a guy that SHE likes, whenever SHE likes…..
I never before thought I would agree with such thoughts, but here I am. I married a man I loved deeply, only to be hurt again and again, it has been an incredibly difficult road. Now my daughter is about to dump a man who is good for her in every way. Why not want something better for your daughter? I know where you are coming from and I wish I had the secret because sometimes you just want to save your beloved children from more pain than you can ever imagine.
