Regarding her not believing in counseling because she is from India...

I was first proposed rather abruptly when I was fourteen. The guy was from Nigeria. I barely knew him and was quite frightened. At any rate, where I lived people needed to be eighteen, at least, to get married. He said he would wait for four years, so he must have been really motivated. I was so frightened that I stopped seeing hiim even as an acquaintenance.

His cheeks were branded. He said it was a sign of nobility in his home country. I did not verify it.

So let us say hypothetically that I would accept his proposal and go live with him in Nigeria. Would I then need to get my cheeks branded???

And you go with absolutely everything she demands citing her ethnic custom.

I sure am glad that Indian widowers do not burn themselves after the death of the wife. This way I at least have hope that you will get to live a long life and avoid death by suicide.
