How to tackle my to be inlaws?
My gf and I are both 26yrs old, I am an mbbs graduate aiming for neet pg this year in august. My gf’s is working (she’s done MBA in HR).
Both of our families are marwadi but her family is a lot more conservative than mine. And they keep saying that our daughter is 26 now and we want her to marry ASAP (but so am I, and 26 is too young for a guy to get married.. my dad was 30 when he got married). I’ve told them that residency is going to be very hectic and I havent seen any of my seniors getting married in their residency but I still uderstand their perspective and I’ve told them I’ll marry after my first yr of residency (even if we might not get to live together after that).
Only 3 months are left for NEET PG, I am already quite stressed and now they are saying that they want to do a roka ceremony in july because their relatives keep asking why havent they made their daughter’s biodata till now.. why arent they looking for rishtas.. and they (conservative marwadis) cant tell anyone that their daughter is dating and the guy being a doctor is not ready yet.
I’ve been tellingn them from the start that I dont want to do anything before neet pg.. I’ll be ready for all the ceremonies after august.
But they keep pushing and pushing and always give excuses like people are asking about biodata, she’s the eldest daughter and her 1yr younger cousin will also get late if she marries late and DADI JI is getting old she wants to see her eldest grand-daughter get married.
I really love my gf and she is completely okay not getting married till after next year, but her family is really stressing me out and its affecting my studies.
Please give some suggestions on how to tell them NO.
