This is a very good point.

Monicagrace - is this urgent desire to get married right away about sex? You said that you and your bf have not been sexually active. Are you waiting until you get married to have sex, so that's why you want to get married as soon as possible?

Because you really have not given much or any information or explanation on why you are so eager to get married right away. And that is the first question your parents will ask and want to understand. If you cannot even articulate your reasons here, you aren't likely to be able to convince your parents that this is a good idea.
