Good riddance to bad rubbish

Dear Jae,

There is never any forced marriage.If he says he can't do about it simply meant that he would not be able /does not want to stand by you.It's better to wake up to the reality and leave him .

Even in a traditional family,the man can decide and get away from his family, honouring his commitment to the woman( in this case,you) he has touched.In fact,then the family will respect him more( of course after the initial resentment against their own son,when they realize that he has been faithful to a woman he has been with after all and THAT has been more noble than their insistence upon he marrying a person of their choice. ) He has just used you, mainly physically and then emotionally-which is despicable for any religion( if he subscribes to any and hides behind any such spacious excuse).

You deserve the best in this world.You have been faithful to him all along.

The right person will soon appear in your life and you will find happiness with him.

Simply put,he is not capable of standing on his own--as a person.It's better to lose him.

Best luck dear lady,
