Joint Family:fil
2002-09-14
Name: no answers



my fil is the most unique man i guess i have come across in my life . He hates it when my husband talks to me . he keeps telling him at work that i am bad wife and i am not worth him and all that stuff.he is too rich a man and my husband is working wiht him.our was a love marriage.My husband has to face a lot of shit whne he is wiht him through out the day.So much so today he even told my husband choose ur wife or choose me . he is trying to convince him to divorce me
my husband comes back and tells me evry thing
fil has been behaving very badly wiht me . he has come to my room at 1 in the night and asked me which dance bars do i go to ?? it is so emabarassing and he gives verabal dirty abuses in hindi.
i am sick of him i dont even respect him . he insists that after whatever he says i should go and wish him nicley
he keeps abusing my parents also
he keeps blaming me to have snatched his son away from him . where as i meet my hubby at 10 in the night after which we go out wiht friends to relax and come back by 1130 or so.
he doenst want my hubby to take me out and expects that he is only a work machine
and interfers a lot wiht his decisions he doensnt let my husband take any decisions
god knows when will all this go
he doesnt wnat us to leave home and go also
we have tried that also left the house for 4 months and survived outside both of us are working and highly qualified.but he got us back ni his house saying that we cant leave wiht out u guys and that ppl in the society are asking questions. they have a big name in the market and they feel ashamed to say that thier kids are on their own.they have huge social cirlces but are hypocrites deep down .
earlier i used to feel bad now i dont care!!!
but dont u think he is a wierd or is this normal behaviour that he is thinking that i am snatching his son
do all fathers get it
and why am i being blamed for every thing my husband does whethere it is smoking ro drinking that i am ot having the capability to stop him
i mbeleive in individuality. and my husband also deosnt like me stopping him,and he is of that mature if u try to stop him hell do more than that
is there any solution???

Hi no answers,
I feel sorry abt ur situation. But its all in ur hands. From ur mail it seems ur husband is supportive of u. So talk to ur husband and tell him to stand on his feet and be firm once and for all. Tell him to correct his father whenever he is wrong, why does he just keep quiet when ur fil shouts/insults u. He as a husband shd support u whenever ur fil is wrong. Tell him firmly but lovingly.
U have said that u'll had stayed separately for 4 months but returned to ur fil because of society. U shd not have returned back that time. Or even if u did return, u should have put the condition to ur fil that u will return only if he (fil) changes his manners. Now theres only one thing u can do. Talk to ur fil directly in the presence of ur husband (discuss abt all this with ur husband first) and tell ur fil that u both r once again leaving home and staying separately if he doesnt change his habits and this time u both wont come back. Tell him that if he does not want u both to stay separately then he has to stop torturing u. U have not done anything wrong and tell him firmly that u wont take anymore of it. It has crossed ur limits now and u r not at fault. If ur husband smokes or drinks, he did that before marriage too (assuming that). So tell fil that if he, being a father, could not stop his son from that, how can he expect u to change him. So no-answers, now u have to take matters in ur hand and show ur fil that u wont take any more of these things from ur fil. If he still doesnt listen, then its better u both stay seperately. Hope I could give u some good advice. Let me know if it helped. Write if u want any more help/info.

Hi Deepa,
Sorry to reply late. I dont check this site much often. I also dont use yahoo or any other chat as its not allowed in my office. I just try to check this site once in a while. I'm working in US as a software engineer.
U are right when u say that u want to have a baby now. 27-28 is the perfect age to have a baby. I too am of the same age and planning to try for a baby in 1-2 months. I can understand ur husband scared about it as he is younger. Try to explain to him again and again in a cool manner that a baby brings lot of joy in the family. Plus since u r in India, u can get a lot of help during ur pregnancy days and after delivery, so he doesnt have to foresake a lot. Tell him that its natural for a woman of ur age to feel a need to have a baby. Ur husbands approach of having sex only once or twice a month for the fear of u getting pregnant is wrong. If you feel like having sex twice a week or more, its not abnormal. Its very normal and these are the days when u can enjoy sex. Once a baby comes and all, then u dont feel that much energy and pleasure. So he has to be explained about all this. Just keep on communicating to him and try to make him understand. From ur mail I guess ur mil is not too nice towards you. Or u could have taken her help in confidence. U could have told her about u wanted to have a baby and she can tell her son that she wants a grandchild. Maybe for his mothers sake, he might say yes. So if u can take ur mil's help, then do so. Or else just keep on talking and convincing ur husband.
Hope ur husband understands it soon and u both try for a baby. Keep on updating from ur end. I'll try to reply whenever I can. Bye now and take care.

Dear Sheetal
Ya i was expecting your mail some time earlier. Well i am a doctor by profession ,my self almost 27 28 now but myhubby is younger to me .well i desparately want to have a kid i know it will make a lot of differnce but my husband thinks he is not ready to take the the reponsibilities of a kid .he is younger to me by 3 yrs and he feels that marriage also has happened early in life for him .he says he is already not in a state to take care of me .
when i try to explain him the medical point of it to him he says why do u wnat extra responsibilty?
So much so he is scared that if he has any relation wiht me i may get pregnant so he genrally has deprived me of it and may be we do it twice a month when he feels like it
this thing is also eating me up... that there r times when i need some things but i always get a no
Now i dont know how it works , we r very comaptible other wise whne ever it happens though.
But i feel it is high time i have told him what i feel and that i feel bad but he doesnt seem to understand so i have told him if he can refuse so will i whne he needs it . i said this to him and now it almost 15 days that we r totally off evry thing
i dont know what i did was right r wrong .he also has told me this that i have a problem that i want it like twice a week. is that abnormal i dont think but inform me if i am really abnrmal for an indian girl?
how about u > whats your life u maried and all? let me know about u too!
take care
god bless

Hi deepa,
Sorry to reply so late. My name is sheetal and I was the one who gave u the above advice. I read ur reply. Feeling sorry about ur situation. U r a very nice woman because U dont want to leave fil and stay seperately. I think the main reason ur fil controls his son (ur husband) is b'coz he has no control over his wife. As u said, he does whatever his wife says and she keeps on nagging him, so maybe he is very frustrated with her and is scared that he is losing his son too and he will be all alone. Thats why I think he tries to take control on ur husband. And the sexual problem with his wife may also be one of the reasons. Basically I think he is removing his wife's or maybe his own anger on u. U have written that ur fil wants everything his way, so this shows that since u r the dil he knows he can control u since he cannot control his wife and make her do what he likes. I can only say that if u feel bad about moving out, then dont. Stay with him but u will have to bear all this. Why have u not yet planned a kid? Normally a kid in the family takes away all the tensions. Once ur kid comes ur fil might change. Plus u will also not feel bad about ur fil's bad behaviour because once ur child comes, u will be concentrating more on her/him. So ur fil's bad words wont make any difference to u. So do plan for a baby soon and u should also know that once a woman crosses 26-27 conceiving takes a longer time. So dear, dont delay. write to me if u want any more help or advise. Bye and take care dear.

Dear Friend ,
I appreciate that you have mailed in Fursat.And i liked all your suggestions but u know it never works that way no matter how much u say that u wnat things for a a better life.
out of what u have judged my husband is very supportive of me and is very nice to me .At the same time he loves his father and feels that he is the only person who can say any thing that is wrong according to the culture.If i happen to tell him any thing he gets angry wiht me .
My fil has been biased about me . He wants every thing his way and has got me as a person to just put the blame on.
it is no use talking to him i have tried that also to which he starts abusing my parents ans says this is what ur parents have taught u to argue wiht me.he doenst understand that i am just trying to explian he says ... that he is old enough and he doesnt have to learn from me .
has a lot of ego basically.
About his son .. that i have spoilt him... he says it is a woman who has all powers and can make a man give up things and if i dont have the power then it is my fault.
he behind my back even tells my hubby to divoce me for what i have no clue.he only wnats me to serve him wiht tea coffe and dinner but doenst wnat me ever to be wiht my hubby. he hates to share his son wiht me
starts to feel insecured
he has a good business which he knows that only his son has the capability to expand it but then he wants my husband to be wiht him 24 hrs.
i over heard from my sil that mil and fil r probably having some sexual problem .Could that be the reason for hios frustration?
We Guess he has a prostrtae enlargment? he is almost 60.he listents to everything mil asks him to do.she also keeps nagging to him ina a better waya nd keeps provoking him.
Mil wears jeans and all but if i wear jeans they say what will ppl say ? i dont think weraing Jeans is a crime .I am a doctor by profession and never thought i would be in a mess like that.... where i feel some thing is eiother wrong wiht me or wiht them .
they dont wnat us to live peacefully. do all thier work and at the end of the day if even 1 work is not done it is history.
Worst it when he starts abusing.
U tell me that i should telll him in front of my husband that stop it but if i open my mouth in front of my husband hell throw me out of the house or he wont say ay hing in front of his parents to me bu then later on there will be mahabharat
i dont know
but ur mail was nice put a smile on my face
thannks a million
whats ur name by the way Friend


we r thinking of moving out but i feel sorry for fil at the same time
god forbid some day my child tells me that he wnats to leave me . i am so scared that i am alomst going to 30 soon and not yet planning on a kid
the topic itself dreads me !!!!
