MARRIED FROM BACKHOME, NOT HAPPY!!!

Re: MARRIED FROM BACKHOME, NOT HAPPY!!!

People have to change naturally when they settle in a different culture (I don't mean she should change just for him) just like a lot of us might have to adjust our behaviour etc. if we moved over to Pakistan. If she goes round making straightforward comments to ppl like she did to him about his hair someone at some point will prob end up giving her a slap. Of course she shouldn't be pressured into changing everything about herself but she is going to have to adapt to a new environment where ppl behave differently. I know it sounds like petty little things he's pointed out but imagine ur new husband from Pakistan made some comment about ur hair looking rubbish or u being a bit overweight or something. I remember my Mum telling me about a girl who married from 'back home' and when he came over he would sneeze without covering his mouth spreading his germs all over the place lol and when he was eating he'd make a bit of a mess, all these things might seem insignificant on their own but add them all up and the other partner is going to start to feel annoyed. I wouldn't mind if I had to change some of my mannerisms if I moved over to Pakistan (like not putting my feet up on tables and talking more respectfully to elders instead of calling some of them just by their names like I do here), I'd take it with a pinch of salt.
