my mom keeps telling me i need to go to iran and find a husband. oh no….
Discussion
A husband…oh no!!
it’s not that, i want a family one day, it’s the fact she wants me to marry not for love, but for the mere fact of marrying
Someone must break the cycle Roya. I can understand the importance of tradition in cultures, but no matter what, you can be sure your mom will always love you, the decision is always yours. 😉
It's the "go to Iran" that stands out to me
i’m iranian
Sure. Doesn't mean you need a husband from your country of origin does it?
(I'm assuming you don't live in Iran anymore)
My friends from back in the days also don't seem to understand why I don't have a family. wife, two kids, house, two cards, dogs, cats and debt coming out my ears. Wasn't meant to happen and I wont start now, by force. Somehow that makes me the weird one.
not at all. love is the only way that marriage will last. doing it just to do it is immoral.
