“Ashley, if he won’t let you decide this, whether or not you want to marry him, then he will never give you a voice for the rest of your life. If you marry this guy, your future is his to decide. Do you really want that? To be controlled? And what about when you have kids? Do you want them to be voiceless in their decisions? What kind of a life is that?”
