[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No one is forcing her to do anything. I'm so confused by all the backlash I'm receiving on this thread for advising my sister against a potential relationship that will create a lot of drama and tension and hurt feelings in the family. Having lived through it myself, I can see how this will go down.They're are a lot of guys on the planet and there are a lot of boys that'll make her happy all the while not upsetting her parents.

It IS her life and she is doing what she wants. I guess I'm not supposed to have an opinion on it.[/quote]

OP, if you really believe all of this, why don't you get a divorce and find someone more agreeable to your parents? There are plenty of boys out there that will make you happy while not upsetting your parents. [b]Every day that you don't leave your husband is a day you are actively choosing to keep doing the thing you're telling your sister not to do[/b], and that is upsetting to your parents. I can't imagine how you reconcile that it's okay for you to continue making that choice but she's not allowed to.[/quote]

+1.  You married to please yourself, not your parents.  You knew it was going to upset them.  You did it anyway.  You continue to do it.

Also, the hurt feelings are on your parents, not your sister.  They could choose to work through their feelings and accept their daughter's right to marry the man she chooses.  They choose not to.  That's on them, not on her.  She's the one who has to live in the marriage, not them.  [/quote]
