My Parents emotionally blackmailing me into marrying someone I don’t love.

I came across a boy around 1 n hlf yrs back, he liked me and so did I. Since its haram in islam to love, I asked him to approach my parents and ask for their approval. Which he did; my parents were over the moon about the proposal, because he fits all their criteria. But as soon as they found out the fact that I ‘loved’ him, they created a scene and rejected. I thought, okay fine…they are my parents and they know best. So I let it go.
