boyfriend for 8yrs, stayed together as hsband wife too dnying to marry


02-Oct-2023 (In Criminal Law)
My boyfriend for 8yrs promised me for marriage(have chats proofs),even stayed together for a month as live in couple(have every proof) I accepted him as my husband mentally,now denying for marriage as we fought over something. His family doesn't know anything, can I do something legally so that he can marry me? Also he cheated on me and slept with a prostitute. Can I file case against him? Is there any way to force him to marry me? My family knows everything and they doesn't want to loose reputation in society because of this. They're saying to marry him. Even I too want to marry him only after everything. I feel like i'm mentally,physically,emotionally harassed by him even tried to commit suicide.I have every proof of this relationship like chats pictures call records. But I have threatened him that I'm going to destroy his reputation if he isn't going to marry me. How can I do something legally so that he will marry me legally?

if you have lived together as husband and wife then a legal presumption will arise of deemed marraige and you will be entitled for maintenance. this I'm mentioning in order to establish your right over him. now in usual practice it is seen that girls alleges rape against such men who exploits on the pretext of marriage but then abandons. it is also a fit case of cheating. domestic violence can also be attributed to some extent if the case is of so. kindly note bringing criminal charges against the boy is a coercive and arm twisted step to compel the man to marry you but it cannot ensure as a matter of right that he marries you legally. No one can be forced to marry anyone without free consent.
