Re: Baree vs. Jehez
^ let's see how long your MIL waits to start snickering about you after u use ur methods :)
Baree these days is more like a gift to a bride. I don't know about anyone else here, but when I try to shop for a GIFT for SOMEONE ELSE, I try to figure out what the recipient likes and dislikes. So if you get a gift/bari outfit that u don't like, u don't have to wear it, that doesn't mean someone is being catty or mean. I don't go out in public wearing suspenders because they are hideous, likewise I wouldn't wear an outfit just cuz someone gave it to me specially since they didn't care to get me something I would actually like.
And yes it does suck even more if ur husband is paying for everything and ur MIL thinks she should just buy everything she likes. People aren't dumb, they know what they are doing when they buy something for u without asking and expect u to love it.
