i am 25 years old guy and in a relationship. I work as Software engineer in a leading IT company. i draw a descent 7 fig annual income. Me and my girl friend are in relationship since last 7 years. It started from college, we were class mates back then and is continuing now . She too works in an IT company and earns a good salary. we both are brahmins. I spoke about my relationship to my parents and was able to convince them about it. She was scared intially as she wanted to settle down. Now that she settled down, 2 years back she spoke about me to her parents. Her parents were furious for i do not know what reason. They were looking for proposals for her. I asked my parents to send them a letter with horoscope details provided. her parents recieved the letter and they said first that guy is not nice(i had sent a photo as well). Then they took her to all astrologers and they all said in front of her that she would not be happy if she marries me there will be fights and lot of fights and you would end up in divorce.
I asked my parents to call her parents... My mom spoke to her mom and her mom spoke in a polite way that this relation would not work out cos of horoscope and all the problems.
I feel her parents are too much concerned about her. Next time she went to home, she insisted again at that time there was a big fight in her home. they scolded her. She used to cry telling me all this over phone. I tried to support her. By now they made her see a guy however she refused just in time else they would have got her engaged.
My parents were ok with my relationship but they wanted a proper dialogue to happen. But since the pressure was mounting, I asked my parents to call again to tell that they are ready to come down to her place. it was difficult to convince my parents but managed it some how. they called her parents and her dad screamed on top of his voice to my dad. they disconnected the call. My parents later said they are not furious over it but until they dont intitate we moving ahead does not make sense.
A year passed by. and things went on happening this way.
Now her parents have said that she need not come home. They are not even calling her.
We both like each other. But cos of these situations, things are not proper between us too....
One other reason for her parents to dislike is i am 6 months younger than her. They feel i may leave her and marry some one else.
yesterday her parents are like.. We would get you married by 5 months.
I have tried speaking to her mom, Her mom says speak to her dad.
Her dad says do not ever call me. else he would call police.
We like each other, I do not want to run away and marry.
My parents are like its better if her parents and them have a proper dialogue.
I have tried asking one of her relatives to speak to her parents about us. But her parents are in no mood to listen to anyone.
What should we do now.
