phuppho

Lifestyle Relationships

what kinda phuppho are you? does your relationship with your bhabhi affect your relationship with your nieces/nephews and what special things do you do for them?

p.s thread inspired by sidra’s blog and phuppho is an aunt (father’s sister) not the soup here but feel free to talk about that too.

Re: phuppho

I adore my niece/nephew. They are my favourite kids in the whole wide world.

Re: phuppho

Yes a phuphis relationship with nieces/nephews depends on their relationship with Bhabi and whether or not said phuphi already has kids of her own and how close they are in age.

Excellent.

And you?

Re: phuppho

Lol tlk you cant be a phuppho, and I am not one either.

Not a ‘true’ phopho.. but my cousins kids were the first neices/nephews for me, at the age of 16… and i LOVE them. I changed their diapers, played with them for hours on end… sigh. Now they’re grown up and i can’t wait to see them.

I have evil phupos. So I try my best with my nephews. I don’t know what they will sya or thonk of me later on in life but now I drop them at school, pick them up, help in their homework and other things. They spend most of their time at my house and even weekends.

Re: phuppho

@rx988 i’m sure you would be a phuppi for which it is said,

“Jab sab log shaadion men khushyan mana rae hote hen, hum apni roothi hwi phuppian mana rae hote hen..” :bummer:

Re: phuppho

Man my phuppo’s are pataka phuppo’s. They have always been fire crackers ready to explode so when my brother got engaged, i made it my mission to make sure i got along with my sis in law. We are now very good friends and it helps that she and i have a lot in common. I don’t have any direct nieces/nephew’s yet but Inshallah when they do come, i plan on being the cool phuppo and set an example world wide. lol :wink:

Re: phuppho

I’m phuppo to my cousins’ kids, and I adore them. I even got to name one niece. I do agree that relationship with the kids depends on relationship with bhabi. I have nothing against my cousin-bhabis, but they are not the type who like keeping in touch with the cousin relative, which makes me sad because Bhaiyya and the other two are so lazy. Mintain karo tou tasweerain bhejtay hain. But I still have a fun relationship with the kids, and am glad for whatever I can get.

My own phuppo on the other hand… Allah maaf karay. I have only one, and she’s a sister to five brothers, so you’d think akloti behen laadli. She was, once upon a time. Two of my tayas cut off ties with her and didn’t speak to her till they day they died. Didn’t invite her to their kids’ weddings. My dad hasn’t spoken to her in over a decade. Forget her relationship with her bhabis. I can’t imagine being that way to my brother. Heck, I can’t imagine treating anyone that way. My Dadi was the sweetest and kindest woman. Sometimes I’m just baffled that my phuppo is her daughter.

Re: phuppho

my nieces and nephews are super duper attached to me. my sister’s daughter is not that attached to me than my brothers kids are even though we live at separate places/houses.
one of my nephew would share his own little secrets with either me or my mom, not with his own parents lol.
My own phuppos have been good to us and friendly too.

Re: phuppho

I’m the first phupho in my family after 3 generation and I’m awesome :smokin: My nephews and niece adore me and I adore them. My bhabhies are sweethearts and they let me beigharo their bachey as much as my heart desires :arzi:

phuppho

My mom and khalas are awesome phuphos. Their Bhabhi is their younger cousin as well so every one gets along well. MashaAllah.

However, out of 5 phuphos, only 1 of my Phupho is good. We stay away from the rest and are happy that way.

Re: phuppho

wow all of you guys are awesome phuphos!!! My own phuphos are okay, my mom doesn’t hold grudges so we never bad mouth them but I think initially they were not so nice to my mother. We are neutral with them now.
Phuphos usually stick with each other so thats why I lump them together.

Re: phuppho

I have one really nice phuppo and one not so nice one. I know how it feels when your phuppo isn’t very nice or doesn’t give two hoots about you, so I try to be a nice, caring phuppo. Plus being horrible isn’t in my nature and especially not to innocent kids.

Re: phuppho

I’ve got two nice phuphos and five evil ones

Re: phuppho

I have no evil pooh-poohs. I just have one tayi that makes up for that. Yayy! :hinna:

Aur bhi gham hain zamanay main laugon…phuppos k siva.

Re: phuppho

I have MashaAllah 5 phophos, the only times I saw them in a different avatar was :

  1. cousins and bro’s wedding (nukta cheeni on everything and the “Main shaadi chor ke jaa rahi hoon” dramay lol)
  2. my father’s death (which I understand, he wasn’t just my father, he was their brother too).
    I haven’t lived with them, but they do call/skype us sometimes and give us lots of duaas Alhamdulillah. And whenever we are in Pakistan, eventhough I might not visit them everyday but they’ll come every evening to spend some time with us, and share stories about my father, dada abbu, dadi ammi…

My niece is Alhamdulillah our bundle of joy, she talks A LOT MashaAllah.
She treats us phophos like queens, and we treat her like a princess :blush:
It’s like seeing a mini avatar of my brother lol. And my bhabhi is equally good Alhamdulillah.
