Every girl has right to choose their partner.

I wanted something simple — to marry the person I love. But when my father found out about my relationship, my entire world changed.

Instead of listening, he hit me. His words still haunt me: “I will finish that boy, and I will finish you too.” That day, I realized my love had become a matter of life and death.

Now, my father is trying to marry me with someone I don’t even know, someone I don’t love. And I? I live each day suffocating inside. I smile in front of people, but inside, I am dying a little every day. I keep asking myself:

How will I face the day they forcefully marry me off?

How will I convince my father that my choice is not wrong?

And if they never agree, how will I survive without the person who is my life?

My love is not a crime. My wish to choose my life partner is not a sin. Yet I am being punished — only because I am a daughter.

This is not just my story, this is the story of many women. When families control a woman’s choices through fear, violence, and threats, it is not “tradition.” It is a violation of basic human rights — the right to equality, the right to freedom, the right to live with dignity.

I am scared, but I am not silent. I am sharing my story so that the world knows:

✨ Love should never come with fear.

✨ Marriage should never come with force.

✨ Every girl has the right to choose — freely, fearlessly, and with dignity.

💪 My future will not be decided by fear — it will be shaped by my courage and my right to choose.
