It depends if it's a cultural custom. If it is, then it's almost pointless to fight it. It appears your ex girlfriend isn't ready to stand her ground, or perhaps she isn't Westernized like you are, because it's obvious she needs to comply with her parent's wishes. You won't win either way, because if you talk her into going against her parents and she argues with her parents over whom she should marry, then you have basically made enemies out of her parents and the road will be tough for you. The parents could even get nasty about it and have you arrested if you continue to see their daughter. The bottom line is, if your ex girlfriend loved you, then nothing should stand in yher way. If she isn't a minor then there is absolutely no reason the both of you couldn't find a way where she doesn't have to get married according to her parent's wishes. It appears she doesn't want to try. The only thing I can suggest is you see the parents directly. Hopefully you are working and can provide for their daughter (although you don't have to be wealthy) and sit down and talk to them pleasantly. See if you can come to some common ground. If the parents won't budge, and your ex girlfriend refuses to fight for you, it's best to move on. Good luck Marcy
