Re: Materal words of wisdom
Exactly RV!!! My mother tried to instill her daughters consequences for our choices. I did not go into my marriage with blinders on, I went in fully knowing that I was not going to get the laad pyar from my inlaws that I had grown up with in my own family. However, the fact that I met my soulmate in my husband, and he fully had my back, made the trade off worth it for me. My mother’s doors were always open for me, and in no way would she EVER have condoned me staying in an unhappy marriage/ or god forbid, subject myself to domestic violence, etc. I could always turn to her whenever I wanted to. However, she did not let me whine and cry about every snub, insult and shoddy behavior on the part of my in-laws, because I knew what I was getting into. End of story.
Demesne, I understand where you are coming from too…:k:
