how to convience my parents for love marriage after 8 years of affair

iam in love with a guy for 8 yrs and before 2 yrs i tried to convence them so much they hit me and sclod me basly my bf also help me and tried to convence my parents but they won't agree? they are constantly finding match for me i always say no to them. since then.apart from all this they time to time told me if i want to marry then do it yourself we boycott you but iand my bf don't want this.from the past 7 months i speak nothing about him because of my br brother marriage and my exams now its high time they keep on saying do it yourself. and threating me that they will kill me.my bf is in job.his parents are agree .what should i do .i ffel like suicide help me out?

wow, i'm in the exact same situation! 8 yrs long relationship, his parents agree, my parents threatening me, constantly finding matches for me, etc. my parents went to the extent of telling me to rather stay a spinster for life than marry my guy. I've told my parents that i'll only marry my guy or i won't marry at all. we are still in struggle phase. wish you all the best.
