Need advice out there

Hi viners, i really need some suggestions because these thoughts are eating me inside from 3 4 days in week I feel suicidal thoughts don't know how to survive from these

So the story went like my 2 year relationship got broken due his family said no and I was all set to marry that person, now i think my marriage age has arrived as I'm 27 so trying to forget him and started looking for arranged marriages, but problem with arranged marriage is like either my mindset don't meet with them or I get ghosted after 1st phone call

I have lost faith from arranged marriages from my father's family side. I don't know what to do I'm afraid if i marry forcefully i will eventually end my life because it was forced.

Whenever I want help from my ex regarding the same like it feels like forcefully marrying a person he just cuts the call and switches off his phone, he says mind ur own matter let me live peacefully

PS i don't hate boys or men outside I have come across already very charming personalities but i don't have much courage to ask them out, but problems in arranged marriages are like mostly they don't show much interest or i don't feel a connection for them

Please suggest me

First of all, there is nothing called "marriage age". We all are at better social times than our previous generations. Please remove this backward mentality because if we youngsters don't try to initiate these changes, our society will remain stuck and won't be able to progress. The correct age/time to marry is when you feel READY from your mind/brain/heart. You still have a long way to go in terms of building yourself and your career.

Secondly, one thing I don't understand from some of the recent posts here. If you're getting into a long term relationship with marriage as the ultimate goal, don't you all talk it out at the initial stage? Why waste your own or the other person's time and efforts?

Lastly, why call your ex now regarding your marriage discussions, he will obviously get frustrated, as he is not really response for your life choices now.

So, what I would suggest is to PLEASE seek therapy if possible or try meditation and other things to calm yourself, because sųîcidal thoughts are not a common thing and can turn dangerous!

Gather some courage and talk to your parents about the state of your mind, they will have to understand.

Make sure you have complete peace of mind before proceeding further, as it can be really detrimental to you and your future family because at the end, if you're not happy with yourself, you cannot be truly happy with anybody else.

Also, please don't neglect your career at all. It will empower you in a way you would have never imagined.

All the best!

When we have started chatting i myself it self cleared that either i want to get married or i don't wanna waste time with some casual talks or relationships, he also agreed because previously his past relationship was also ended due to this, he somehow show me hope that there is something we can make it together, but their family brought up some unnecessary stuffs in which he just cut all everything without having a discussion with me at all, what is my fault here?

Nope I don't think your age is a matter of concern, men who look for age are just bygots, I saw someone's comment saying considering your age your best option is only arranged marriage, let me tell you it's all just bullshit. Whatever happened to your relations I feel sorry for that but it's part of life and that how life is, you should not dwell on it learn from it and keep moving forward. Secondly I don't understand why are you rushing to the marriage, take a break and explore things find the one whome you are interested in or find the qualities that you like in the opposite gender then look for those even if you go for arrange marriage. Don't let the negative thoughts get to you, you are stronger than that, you yourself gets to decide how you want to live your life not those suicidal thoughts of yours.
If you feel down you can ping me let's talk or talk to anyone with whome you feel calm(don't start calling your ex), but don't let your thoughts get best of you.

This is going to sound rude but: all this over just 2 years of relationship? I understand it might habe meant a lot to you but You will find better and longer relationships. And everything will workout. Instead of bigger picture, maybe try focusing on daily tasks and events. And let the marriage thing happen in background.

Holyshit, I completely feel what ur going thru rn. there are many things missing here

Did you move on from ur ex ? From what I’m reading idt u did.

Why you feeling like getting married is really needed. You can just live life happily without getting married.

Just don’t get married till you think you have moved on. Cuz sure after getting married it won’t go good and poor guy who ever marries will get fucked.

But I think there is more to this, please consult a therapist and talk with them freely and be truthful!

If a man is into you he will marry you . He is just making excuses not to marry you. in initial phase you both know that you are dating to marry still he said no , not because of his parents but because he is searching for better options while he know that no one could love him like you. He knows you well even he knows that you love him by all your heart still he leaves you. You are just a pure soul, you should feel blessed that god save you from such narcissist person. In todays era no one cares about others because of such man exists. Stop thinking about Marriage and start working on yourself, your career. There are more important things in life than just wasting your crucial time thinking about him. Think about people who love you.

I think you should take a break for sometime. Cut off all ties with your ex, no calls no chatting no matter how down u are. He is living his life. Secondly, u don't need to marry forcefully. Nowadays arranged marriage is not forced. U talk , meet see compatibility. U need to be open in ur thinking either u go for arranged marriage or not. Third is according to society standard also u have some more time. N ppl r like that, they can leave u. So love marriage is also not a guarantee thing now days

First please heal and try to move on completely from your past relationship before jumping into arrange marriage scene or any other relationship.

You'll never be able to choose what's best for you if you are still clinging to your ex for emotional support.

Whatever happened has happened already and you can't change that. Focus on yourself and carry on with your life.

You can postpone marriage by few months when you feel you're ready instead of rushing into it with clouded mind.

That might save 2 lives.
