Sister doing love marriage and my family shattered

1. Call her directly and explain her that she has taken a decision which is not supported by your parents. Ask her whether she is sure of the alliance. Remind her that she is a grown up now and hopefully she can keep up to her marital responsibilities. Let her know whether you can make it to the wedding. If you are not going, let her know why. Like you want to support your parents as they are sad and need you more. Nevertheless that she will always be in your thoughts and that if she needs anything, you are there.

2. You are her sister, support her. Not because she is right, because you are siblings. And more importantly if something goes wrong, at least your sister might keep you in loop. Even the worst of the parents will only wish their kids to be happy.

3. You cannot guarantee anything. Just keep in touch and in course of time, who knows, you might even forgive her.

4. Relocating, I am not sure. If it will make them forget and forgive its ok. But why leave your home? Some people may gossip, some may console. What's the guarantee that the new place will be free of this torture? Let your folks understand that, time heals everything. Its really hard to accept it now, but that's what it is.

5. Don't be sad. Its a tough time. You cannot control everything. Be there for each other. Involve yourself in some yoga or social work to release your anger/sadness. Nothing lasts forever. At the end of all this, you will only grow stronger.
