Dear questioner,
I can discern your longing for intimacy and the pain and helplessness you experience when you are not accepted by your parents. I extend to you a warm embrace.
Let us examine together the true meaning of marriage and the best ways to prepare for it.
In the text Marriage: A Fortress of Happiness, the author elucidates the meaning of marriage.
The determining factor in the success of a marriage is the couple's beliefs about the purpose of life and the means of achieving it, as well as their commitment and expectations of each other, which are based on these beliefs. It is therefore important to ascertain what the individual's beliefs about life are.
Do they believe that the family is well-off and that employment is stable? If uncertainty persists, it is advisable to gain a deeper understanding of one's own beliefs and values.
A lack of self-knowledge may result in individuals making decisions that are detrimental to their well-being or making commitments they are unable to fulfill.
In preparing for marriage, it is essential to gain an understanding of the character of the other person. A happy marriage is a mutual commitment between two individuals that unites them mentally and emotionally. It is crucial for each party to gain a comprehensive understanding of the other person's character to ensure that the marriage contract is a lasting one.
The objective for the couple is to become loving partners and like-minded friends who will remain together indefinitely.
It is important to evaluate the other person's relationships.
A robust public persona can occlude certain aspects of an individual's character. Therefore, it is crucial to observe your prospective partner in the company of others and ascertain the caliber of his intimate associates. If an individual is unable to treat others with courtesy and respect, it is probable that he will not extend such treatment to his future family. If his friends appear markedly disparate from him, it is likely that they do not truly know him and his authentic character.
Individuals exhibiting possessiveness, greed, jealousy, and authoritarian behavior may be considered to be lacking in maturity and preparedness for marriage. In general, relationships tend to be stable if people are grateful, sensitive to the feelings of others, and maintain inner happiness.
Furthermore, the capacity to engage in humor and share moments of levity with others is indicative of maturity and preparedness for marriage.
Conversely, a lack of preparedness for marriage is indicated by a tendency to take everything for granted, a paucity of laughter, a proclivity for constant complaining, and a dearth of gratitude.
An additional crucial method for comprehending an individual's character is to analyze their relationship with their parents. In numerous instances, this can provide insight into the potential for that person to act as a spouse or parent, as individuals often emulate their parents in these two domains.
Children who are raised in happy, stable, and complete families are best prepared for marriage, as they are consistently exposed to positive role models.
In sum, one can transcendently assess one's readiness for marriage. In the process of getting to know the true nature of the other person, one can determine whether one's choice reflects wisdom. If both parties reflect those basic qualities in their behavior and interpersonal relationships that ensure the stability of the marriage, they are likely to successfully cope with the difficulties and necessary adjustments that will be encountered in married life.

I can totally relate to feeling torn when you have to give up on someone you care about. It's hard when your heart wants one thing but your mind knows it's not the best choice. Maybe taking some time for yourself could help clarify what you're really looking for in a partner.
It sounds like you've been through a lot with balancing what your family expects and what you want. It's okay to feel uncertain; this might be a good moment to explore what truly matters to you in a relationship without outside pressure.
Feeling reluctant is natural after letting go of someone special. It's important to listen to both your heart and your family's concerns. Perhaps this is an opportunity to redefine your own criteria for a partner, focusing on what brings you genuine happiness and stability.
