I understand family dynamics not fear. I'm African...

I know grown men scared to tell their folks they don't wanna marry their pre-selected mate.

Already seen a divorce because of this and dude lost money... he never even consummated.

You can' let them dictate everything. They will...

Fear/respect are part of the dynamic. My father treats me like a grown-ass man, but there is still a hierarchy between us. He's not my friend. Generally, and I'm talking for my people, your parents don't guide every aspect of your life, especially for boyz. However, we give more weight to our parent's wishes than the average westerners. Your family is more involved in your life.
