Re: Ladies Need some advice
Chicagoin, I believe the core issue is her dad fighting cancer , that it self can take a toll on alot of people ... and then on top of this , she is having to deal with rishta freaks ..
whats her mom like? could it be that her family might be contributing to her stress by pressurizing her or talking about her marriage quite often? Mothers do not do it intentionally, sometimes they are just discussing things , but the person can feel alienated and can feel "held responsible for" letting down family etc ...
If so , ask her mother and family to take a relaxed attitude ...
Secondly, please encourage Sarah to come out of the shell and start her own search as well .. once she gets talking to the right people , she will feel empowered to reject or accept proposals , this will give her the energy to look at the rishta process abit more enthusiastically and positively.
The options can be various matrimonial websites ... they are full of trash , but some good people are on there as well .. some of my best buddies found their husbands on them and are mashallah so so happy in their lives... you can give that a shot as well ...
I wish her all the best, may 2010 prove to be a blessed year for her and her family inshallah.
