Asking Her Father
By Bernadette A. Moyer
It’s nice to see that some traditions have staying power and still ring true for so many young couples wanting to marry.
Yesterday I was at my nail salon getting my nails done when I began talking with the young lady next to me. Later that afternoon she was going ring shopping with her soon to be fiancé’. She shared the story of what it was like when her boyfriend “asked her father” for her hand in marriage. They had been dating for several years and the parents openly accepted him.

Speak Now ✔️
Speak now or forever hold your peace. Isn't marriage supposed to be about building a life with someone you truly love, isn't it about making a lifelong commitment to someone forever? Elizabeth Young was only nineteen when she was forced into something she was not ready for and she definitely didn't want to do it. But, she had no choice. Her parents were forcing her to marry a man she did not love nor like for that matter and she was forced into giving her whole life up. That is, until she meets someone. And that someone may change her life for the better. She never knew what love felt like until she laid her eyes on him. But, she couldn't be with him because of this arranged marriage. She wanted so much to have a life where it wasn't surrounded by rules and she wanted that one true love she could hold onto. Their love was difficult but, it was real. Maybe Elizabeth would have the courage to end this arranged marriage and maybe she gets to choose her path in life. Will the wedding be stopped before she is forced to say I do?
