Re: Being dupli patli pakistani

My mumani used to say my hair was thinning (I stupidly got my curly hair rebonded which indeed did thin out my hair temporarily) but she made it a point to say it at gatherings where everyone could hear. So one day I told her to keep her opinions to herself and she smiled it off while my cousins all sheepishly grinned. Of course, my mumani ended up getting an alopecia patch (a bald spot due to an autoimmune reaction) so she couldn’t ever say anything after that. Horrible, but true.

Seriously that is what it is half the time. my mum’s best friend is always making digs about us (in a nice way) and the fact that my sisters got married a bit later than my parents would have liked…never mind the stuff her daughters got up to and how late they got married.
They do it to draw attention away from themselves and to feel all superior about themselves - and its really annoying because they think they have the right to look down on young girls who are too polite to answer back etc

This.
