You have a complicated issue but your father is only trying to make sure that you have firm stand in future if this guy ever happen to move away from you but I think your father is going too far with it. I think you should calm down and think from both point of view ie. your father and your love.

Hello ashley poni,

Falling in love with someone has never been, is not and will never be a sin. Parents intervention in love marriages happen because they are considerate about their children, sometimes and sometimes, its the old Indian traditional thinking that comes in their way of their broad understanding. Your case is somewhat a mixture of both.

When he is worried about your boyfriend buying you a plot, he is thinking in terms of your financial security. But when he is adamant on the point that your boyfriend is obese, I believe, he is thinking wrong. Obesity is a baseless point and rejecting a proposal just because of it, I feel is not justified.

Now, what you gotta do, first there is no need to suicide. Make your father understand, he has tried well in his past to reduce his weight and he did succeed. This means he can do it again and he will get success again. So, your father should rule out this point because reducing weight is not a big deal. Secondly, regarding buying you a plot, you need to make him understand that you will never appreciate getting married to a person who is spoon feeded and is rich by his family background. You need to make your father realize that your boyfriend loves you and that he is trying his best. Moreover, make a promise to him that there will come a day when you will invite him at your own house, but obviously it needs time. Make him realize that when he was born, he had nothing with him, no plot...no house. It took him whole of his lifetime to gather funds and buy a plot for himself and that your boyfriend is not a superman or spiderman, that he will do it right now. Obviously it wil take him sometime to fulfill your father's demands and most importantly, he is trying.

You need to make your father realize that you respect his demands and his caring attitude towards you, but being a future wife of your boyfriend, you also respect his capabilities not less than your father's demands. You need to make him realize your love has the courage and guts to keep you happy and the point that you guys are in this relationship for almost 3 years should itself qualify a valid reason that he will not leave you ever. So, just in case your father is feeling insecure about him leaving you, you need to make him realize that he is worried on baseless thing.

See, mutual discussion between you, your father and your boyfriend is the only solution to this problem. You both need to make him realize that loving is not a business dealing where you give from one hand and take from the other. It involves emotions and feelings which is more important for an individual to live with rather than living in a house.

Buying a plot and supporting you financially can be easy for anyone but a house is made home when emotions and feeling are involved. You need to make him realize only money cannot sustain life and marriage, mutual respect and lifelong togetherness is also important. The most important thing in making a relationship go well is mutual love and respect and if these elements are missing, there is nothing left.

Talk to him over this in more detail. Try to explain him things that he is adamant on points which are either baseless or will take sometime to happen. Make him realize your happiness lies with your boyfriend and if he is rejecting your marriage on these points then you very well have the rights to revolt or put your demands forward, which obviously will be difficult for your family to fulfill. I hope you are getting what I mean here.

Suicide is not a solution of any problem, you should try to find an another solution of this problem, and try to conveyance your family and his family.
