2006-11-04

Name: saina pl Hi frens!
I thought its just my prob,before going through this thread. i've been married for almost 'bout 3year nd living in US.

can u tell?

hi sania

well even i stay abroad and my mil is good but i too have the problem of greedy sister in law....who though being rich will never return the gift to my daughter but in all the ways wants us to get her the best things whenever my hubby takes a trip abroad and we go backhome....even this time when my MIL had come to visit us, i had to buy so many things for their family...i was pissed off!....And u feel bad that we dont spend on our self for all the branded items and chocolates and we send them and they dont even tell us thanks ! But this time i was brave enough and told my hubbby everything (some incidents) and he aggreed with him....so guess what! now that my hubby is on my side, i m not worried whether my MIL likes it or not...i will just take the minimal of stuff for them for my next visit.

I just guess do all the sis-in-laws are so mean and greedy( i dont have a brother but i know for sure i will never behave with my Bhabhi like this).

We were both wo... - Tina Shah [View Message]

RE:self centered inlaws

I agree they have completely double standards as I recently found out. I saw my husbands childhood photos when he was young. His parents claim they sacrificed everything for their kids and lived poor and behave like martyr parents. Got treated as free domestic servant. But the photos showed them dressed like Bollywood stars with watches and jewellery enjoying their life. O... - Tina [View Message]
