urgent help needed

Re: urgent help needed

Why are you being so melodramatic??? You can't sleep, cried for several hours, won't get out of bed... WHAT?
You're seriously going to end your engagement over something like this?!
Did your parents tell you that you should end your engagement? From your posts, it doesn't seem like it. Your dad didn't tell you the story himself, your mom did. Your mom may be over-exaggerrating everything. Why don't you go and ask your dad what exactly happened?

It kinda is your fault. Why did you have to tell your fiance that his parents were being rude? You could have said, "Hey, my mom brought something up with me today. Your dad made a comment/question on why my father doesn't have a computerized system at his store. I think my father may have taken it in an offensive way since he has been struggling. Do you think your dad is a little uncomfortable with our engagement or my father? Is everything alright between them?" Instead, you probably started crying and accusing his father. A child will get defensive when it comes to the parent. I don't blame your fiance for taking a breather or wanting to end things.

If I were you, I'd wait a couple of days, then talk to your fiance... tell him you reacted too harshly and shouldn't have accused his father without knowing the other side of the story.

Re: urgent help needed

soundarya...

If you give honest advice, it should not be full of emotional content.

it's honorable that you respect your parents a lot but maybe you're all a little over sensitive. When my sister found out her FIL did not have wireless in his house and asked him why he didn't it was because she wants her in laws to be in touch with technology and caught up not because she was looking down at them for not having it. This is so not a reason to break an engagement over and in fact I feel like you owe your fiance and apology and I NEVER SAY THAT

Stolenights... Uhhhhhh??? I didn't understand this ^. If you mean that my post was harsh or something, that was the purpose. Not sleeping and crying for hours isn't going to solve her situation.

My point is that crazyfool should not get so emotionally charged up like that. She needs to relax and go back to how she approached or reacted toward her fiance. If someone approaches one in a defensive manner ("your dad was rude to my father" or something on the lines of that), obviously the other is going to react harshly. If indeed, there is some sort of problem between the fathers, then both crazyfool and her fiance should figure out how to bridge the gap or decrease the tension. She believes that her FIL doesn't like her dad, but it could be the other way around. Maybe the FIL thinks that her father doesn't like them.

Good luck to your fiance...seriously.

Re: urgent help needed

If you have four walls around you, pick the best wall and go bang your head with it 100 times. You are full of attitude and your reaction to the situation is as stupid as my head banging idea...

Re: urgent help needed

Did ur fiance SAY that he wants to end things?? he said time off? u want things to end? how is that possible over such a small thing considering ur having a love marriage? how much in love are you with this guy!
In arranged marriages u see often people breaking up over stupid things, mainly coz theyre looking for something 'perfect' and will look further if this doesnt work....
Is this the only fight uve had with him recently or have there been more issues in short period? (ur other thread abt ur parents & his parents)
Maybe u guys are having too many issues over small things and he's fed up (for now)?, and also think of it: isnt there a possibility that ur parents have taken it in the wrong way?

PS from what i see in (most) desi wedding/engagement settings the girls parents do their best no matter what coz they dont want their daughters to end up alone hmmmm. its the culture........:s

please relax and stop the crying, there is no point in tears and certainly not for this!

Re: urgent help needed

Tell your parents directly that you dont wanna break this engagement...its not such a big issur if ur FIL asked ur dad such a simple question...he might have been suggesting him that why dont u get a computerized system in ur shop....in any case....theres no need to get offended.
Everyone is touchy towards their parents....but relationships dont work this way....sometimes u just need to ignore such petty issues....if ur fiance...out of anger...said that he needs a space....it doesnt mean that u shouldnt call or msg him....text or call him and talk politely that maybe theres some kind of misunderstanding that occured between our parents....but it shouldnt affect our relationship.....if ur father is paranoid due to some problems he faced in the past...like financial stuff....let him know that he is over sensitive towards such issues because of some problems he faced in the past....let ur fiance know that how much u like and adore him and want to tie ur knot of life with him...we all need words of warmth and love sometimes...stop complaining about things to him....do some lovely dovely talk to get things on track between you....n STOP BEING CHILDISH.....no pills and no crying....just let ur parents know that u want to continue this relationship....pray to Allah that He puts things right for you...Good Luck!

Things are going wrong because of you. If you want this relationship to work, try to use your brain instead of other peoples'. Is it your engagement or the parosi's? You want someone else to come and fix your issues for you? Are you a helpless child? Are you handicapped? Are you slow? No. Then, give a really good excuse for this behavior of sulking, crying, taking pills, not dealing with this properly and also creating drama between your fiance and you.

You want sympathy from us. You have it for some things but other things like this...nope. Your relationship is YOUR responsibility to manage and nurture, not anyone else's. Stop being a baby and take some responsibility for your actions.

Unneccessary drama over stuff you dont even know for sure...this is childish.

I would want some time apart too. You're literally sulking about your sister getting more rishtay than you, that your mom doenst like your inlaws, your FIL asked your dad about a computer system, you want to hurt yourself because you might not get married, you're taking pills, etc etc etc. These are all issues your fiance has NOTHING to do with. Just you. What is the common denominator here? You. Who has the issue here? You. Who needs to get their mind out of wherever it seems to be stuck? You.

Crazyfool, life is short and also what we make of it. You have complete control over your happiness but you want to be miserable.

You want honest advice? See below.

after engagement you cant bardasht 'one thing' from your in-laws...& you're bent on breaking this relationship

after shadi you have to bardasht 'hazaar' batein...what will you do then??

You have really too much time on your hands.....
either break the engagement & give everyone a break
or quit being a drama queen if you want to continue the relationship

Lol thanks RV. But actually I meant that it if it's coming second hand from your mother and your father hasn't mentioned it to you or you haven't spoken to him about it - then she may be making it sound a lot worse than it is in order that you get angry and fight with your fiance.

Reading the replies that have come later, the only one who has said there was any misbehaviour is your mum, who also told you that your dad strictly told her not to tell you.

The only one who is creating problems in every thread you write is your mum - and you're reacting exactly the way she wants you to.

Re: urgent help needed

Absolutely. You know after marriage, sometimes your saas (MIL) might say lots of thing you might not like. What will you do then? Phir kya karogi? You will start thinking of suicide and divorce him and all sorts of things? She might give you tanay about your cooking...you're going to lock yourself up in your room for 8 hours and cry all day? All night? Take some sleeping pills?

This is ridiculous. Halaat ka samna karna seekho varna life will be too hard for and NO ONE will want to make you a part of their life.

You listen to your mom and go fight with your fiance...this is like poison for your relationship. If he hasnt left you already, you have to fix this and make sure it never happens again.

Re: urgent help needed

^ I agree. Also, there are a lot of times that our mothers bring their own resentments, cautions, and problems from their in laws into their daughters lives. You cannot listen to everything your parents say unless you have seen it to be the truth. Yes our parents love us dearly but there are always miscommunications and sensitivity when it comes to two families coming together for the sake of their children. I mean, in all fairness your fiance would not have gotten mad but should've just been stern and put his foot down when it came to his dad. However you took it way too far.

Seriously??? no offense, but* I *know people who have had their homes blown up and are less dramatic than you.

Re: urgent help needed

hmmm ok i think she got the point now.

I dont think this ONE issue would drive you to break an engagement. What else has happened in the past that has led you to think about breaking your engagement?

As far as this badnami thing is concerned... ummmm... its 2010!
