When someone falls in love, it is not to the class, creed, religion, caste or family background and status of the person.
It’s just that person who matters the most, but for the families, it often happens that the former things are extremely important.
It may also be the case that you are simply unable to convey your feelings in the right manner, which plays a very essential role here.
Your plan of action for passing on this information to your parents is very crucial for the kind of reaction you will get from your parents. Here are some of the best tips to convince your parents for your marriage, have a look.
1. Find A Confidante Within Your Family: Find a confidante within your family who is also close to your parents. It is very essential for you to have a support from someone who is trustworthy to both you as well as your parents. It can be your elder sibling, grandparent and uncle or aunt, but choose wisely, as this person will play a vital role in convincing your parents.
2. Give Small Hints: Give your parents small hints from time to time that you are much in favour of love marriages, rather than arranged ones, so that it doesn’t come as a surprise to them when they come to know about your relationship and your decision to marry your partner.
3. Introduce Your Partner As A Good Friend First: Arrange for your families to meet in some public gathering, introducing your partner as a very good friend of yours first. Make sure they get to spend a good time together by exchanging all the necessary information about the likes and dislikes of both the families with your partner beforehand.
4. Talk Often About Your “Good Friend”: Talk about your 'good friend’ at times and praise the person whenever you get a chance, so as to create some acceptance for them in your family.
