Salaam sister, it's very hard, but i think you need to have a good chat with your father. I am sure he will come around eventually

I think your father like any other father is worried about you and wants what best for you.

I dont think he will force you to marry someone you hate. He simply trying to help. But if you find the right man for you. If he is a Muslim and faithful I dont see any reason why your father will not approve of it.

You just need to sit down and have a talk with him. And dont forget to pray and ask god for suport.

Sister Asmaarshad is correct. Maybe you can talk to soemone else in your family who can assist you. Good luck sis!

Sister, please let us know how you go with talking to your father.

Maybe you can talk with your father about this.I believe that he will understand you.Best wishes for you.
