The girl who I mentioned above was that village girl. She came from traditionalist family in traditionalist community. In that community, if a girl had left her teen age, then her value would be reduced. So a girl must get married at least in age 20/21 before her value reduced and reduced, and make her hard to get husband. That girl mother actually had planned to marry off her daughter with another guy. That’s why she rejected me in the beginning. But after long and intense approach, she allowed me to marry her daughter although her daughter must wait until I finished my study.
Did I end up marrying that village girl?. No. Later I married another girl who I knew earlier.
I managed to convince that girl mother to accept me (her father considered outsider since had divorced and remarried). But I failed to get approval from my mother. In my culture the guy mothers have big power. If a mother does not approve the girl who chosen by her son, it will make this girl afraid to marry her son. And if a mother like a girl, then she will force her son to choose this girl. That’s what happened. So that village girl decide d to not marry me, and I married another girl who be liked my mother.
