How do you cope with relative's expectations on getting married?

[Holac]

Get married. Why are you still around? Did you get married yet? Are you still looking? Adigu ma guursanaysid weligaa. Arooskagu waa goorma?

 

I am tired of these questions and comments.

 

How do you deal with them?

[Coofle]

yaan lagu wareerin....Don't crack under pressure, you are the who will get married , marry in your own pace and speed and to whomever you want, don't please somebody by running to marriage...

[Holac]

Coofle, this is usually not a big deal, but when it gets repetitive, it becomes annoying. The sarcasm is the worst.

[Khayr]

Holac,

 

A little pressure is good for you. Now grow some balls and assume more responsibility.

[Dhagax-Tuur]

^Second that.

[Holac]

Khayr, easier said than done! The thought of being responsible for someone else is frightening.

Leaving the possibility open is what keeps relatives hopeful and constantly asking -- be straightforward and tell them you're not interested in getting married right now, that should shut it down.

Who said I'm old or single? But seriously, it's the best way to get busybody relatives off your back.

[Nin-Yaaban]

Tell 'em you are GAY. They'd leave you alone after that.

[gooni]

Don’t say leave me alone oo sariirta ha isku tuurin sidii nin adag ula xisaabtan

Hadii aad doonayso inaad wax barasho dhamayso ama dhaqaale samayso iwm u sheeg xigtadaada

 

Ehelkaagu meelo badan bay wax ka arkaan ama is leeyihiin armay fursadaas dhalinyaro nimadu dhaafisaa ha uqaadan fara gelin shakhsiyadeed waa dhaqan wax kula jecel

 

Waa laga yaabaa inay kugu fogaadaan ama kula kaftamaan haday waynaan kaa dareemaan

Ha xanaaqin haday ku yiraahdaan war ma kaadida keliyaad u sidataa?!!!

Coercion is not necessarily a bad thing from my point of vieuw. Its merely a sign that you need to get on with it.

[Mooge]

holac niyoow marry if you have the money to support family. if you still student, don't even think about it.

You guys are giving such unhelpful responses, lol. Holac doesn't want to get married right now and wants his relatives to STFU about it, so he's looking for help for that, not asking SOLers to give their opinions about a decision he's already made regarding his own life.

1- Grow a backbone

2- Tell people you make those decisions and unsolicited advice is not needed
