@Vanessa I'm in a similar situation.I know I can tell them I will not wear it anymore and tell them to take it off,and they would agree,but they would probably tell me to find a flat and not help me financially for anything(rent,studies,food and drink,etc...).And,even if I'm living on my own and get enough money,stopping to wear it when not married would probably put me in trouble with them.I,however,don't know if it would only make us less close or if they may,even if a bit extreme,not want to meet me or hear me anymore,until I resume wearing it or being married...So I understand you don't want to break it.
@Laura It's wrong to say I was forced to wear a belt, better to say, I couldn't decline their offer. Your understanding of the situation is close, excepting I'm not dependent financially so much and can move away and cut the belt off any time, but in this case I will loss connections not only to the parents, but to other relatives who can help me in my life. And what's next? Work in a post office and wait until somebody retires? No, thanks. I prefer to be a good girl and wear a belt.
