@akaprincess

yes, I was independant. made my own money, spent it on myself too, went to school, did everything myself, while living with parents. mother didn’t require me to cook or do heavy household chores (she was like, after you get married, you will be doing your fair share of that anyway) .. and boy did I get alot more to do than my fair share !

after marriage - did not get any support from the in laws, had to cook/clean all that on a daily basis PLUS work a full time job, while my sister in law did nothing at home, along with the brother in laws. all the while listening to how I still wasn’t good enough and the complaints were constant. Basically ripping me of my identity
that is just the short version

I was not allowed to wear certain t shirts because they would show my arms too much, or pants were showing my behind cuz it wasn’t long enough. if I wore shalwar kameez they didn’t like, I would hear about how bad my taste was.. if I wanted to go out, I would need approval from almost everyone in the family.. stupid crap like that was the everyday.

Why do some people even bother with marrying off their puttars? Is it only to belittle someone else’s daughter? And it never ceases to amaze me that the parents who have daughters of their own would treat someone else’s daughter like that? Do they not stop to think for even a moment that what goes around comes around and their own princesses may be treated like crap by their in-laws in the future.
