Arranged/Forced marriage

Question:

Salaams I have loved someone for over 6/7 years and have always intended to marry however for the last 3 years a proposal had come and I refused but behind my back my mother and sister had given my hand in marriage. Over a year ago my brother and cousin supported me when I was in Pakistan as my parents tried forcing me. I refused my mother without me knowing emotionally blackmailed my younger sister who has also refused. I just can’t do it my heart isn’t in it at all. Whenever I think of being married with this person and spending my life with someone else I cannot stop crying. My eyes fill up every 5 mins and I find it increasingly hard to cope with this. I pray durood sharif to give me strength.
