Marriage issue
I went to see a girl at her home for marriage purpose and there i was on escitalopram since 1 month due to existential anxiety, when i saw her i felt comfort and feeling that i can live life with her but after 2 days i started exploring attraction and feeling for her in my heart what i found is empty and i am pretty sure that i am not ready for marriage with her. I refused her but my family is not agreeing with this because it's the 5th time i am rejecting someone on the basis of feelings that i don't get feelings for her, I am very confused because i didn't find anything wrong with her and she is pretty also but i don't feel anything for her at all.

It’s understandable to feel confused in this situation. Anxiety itself—and sometimes antidepressants—can blunt emotions and create excessive doubt, especially around major life decisions like marriage. Lack of “feelings” does not always mean something is wrong with the other person; it may reflect anxiety, overthinking, or fear of commitment.
I would advise not to rush into marriage under family pressure, continue understanding your anxiety, and start structured counselling to explore your expectations, decision-making pattern, and emotional responses. Once your anxiety is better managed, clarity about relationships usually improves.

Hello
I have understood what you are going through
So let's know why this is happening with you
First, how do you define attraction, love and care for a person, at the same time how you want to be treated by your partner?
Do you have trust in your own decision making process. Because first you are saying yes then no. What happened between these yes and no phase. What all thoughts went through your mind?
Marriage is not a one day commitment, it takes time to develop trust, care, love, emotions etc
So sometimes solely depending on our current moods/feelings decision can affect us.
Talk with your psychiatrist, if needed going for therapy is also helpful.
