Re: Holding grudges
OMG yes i feel your pain. this actually happened in my immediate family yaar! my khala wanted a rishta (for her daughter, my cousin) with my hubby's older brother (my jayt). and right off the bat my mom told her frankly (since they are sisters and can talk openly) that she doesnt think that her daughter and my jayt would make a good match because of obvious personality/likes/dislikes differences, etc etc. uffff yaar, just because of my mom innocently telling her this, she AND my cousin havent talked to us in over a year! i mean, iss mein konsi aisi baat hogayi??? like what big offense did my mother do by giving her advice to my khala.......kasam se yaar, sometimes family can overreact so much. ....
and then get this....its been over a year and a while ago my mom made the first moved and called her sister to try to make amends. my mom even as far as to say that if you REALLY still want us to try to get the rishta for your daughter then we'll definetely do baat with them...........and my khala had the nerve to say that no, we feel that he isnt good enough for our daughter anymmore and we dont want to do the shadi in the same family as your daughters.............uffff!! unbelievable... hain na?
