writes: I'm 17 and my girlfriend is 16 we've been friends for 2 and half years and just recently started going out. Even before we started dating her parents didn't know I existed (they don't want her to have any communication with the opposite sex). And i know it's too early to be thinking about marriage or anything, but if things do make it that far I want to be prepared. I also know her parents are old school Muslim so they threaten her with an arranged marriage. So what I want to know is how I should go about the situation, because so far we've just been sneaking around and haven't done anything but go out to eat. Should we just wait until she's older so we won't have to worry about her parents or should we just stay together now?

Well,, i think you should wait until she's older. I had the same thing going on with my egyptian boyfriend. His dad didnt accept me. his mother did though... however, wait until she's 18 so you can do what you want. And if you really love eachother, best thing to do is take her away from there so she can be with you. Im only suggesting. But its the best option if you want to be together. BUT keep sneaking around. Its yours and her life too. No one can tell you what to do. She and you have hman rights,, arranged marriage is completely violating her human rights. She cant let this happen. I will pray for you. Good luck x

What you are to do is honor the parents wishes!!! If you can't do that then you probley can't be trusted with their daughter in the future.
