Lol @ RV or giv her a gift this eid and tell her this i bought just for u from 2/3 of my salary. well girlieee why not try sugar coating her for a change. u start treating her like she’s very special and may be she’ll start tolerating u better. u r 20 n u can easily become her friend. if it didn’t work for like 3 months then giv her a piece of ur mind.

People who make “taiz” comments (like the stepmother)…will recognize comments like “just for u from 2/3 of my salary” as being taiz, lol. If she’s gonna try the “killing with kindness” approach…then she should be nice without making the “clever” remarks (though she deserves them).

At the same time…the niceness should not be overdone to where the stepmother feels she can take advantage…or gets the impression that the OP can do anything for her and be like a doormat.

The idea can be implemented…but again…without condescending comments. If that doesn’t work…then as you suggested…remind her of boundaries…and if that doesn’t work…approach dad.
