I did make a conversation with them about what if I like someone not now probably when I am around the age of marriage. And I approach them about it, before falling into a relationship. I didn’t mention about him. At first, they were little hesitated but later they were okay. The only condition was that I shouldn’t have the attitude of “I will only marry this particular guy”. They want it to be discussed together with them and fall into a final conclusion. They don’t like me taking the decision all alone because according to them as parents that’s the biggest responsibility and it is they who have to find someone for me and take the primary decision.
To be honest, I am not stubborn that I will only tie a knot with him. I still love him a lot and care for him a lot. But right now I am keeping this aside and focus more on to my studies and career. As you mentioned earlier no matter what happens, I will never run away from my house, move away from my parents for my own pleasures. I will always make sure that my parents become comfortable too for whatever decisions I make. Just worried as to how I can convince them at that age.
