Re: Ways to Deal With a DifficulT MIL ..!
I did give OP my advice. Rabia, I have no ill will toward you for you tell me to “move on” which might be your slightly nicer way of saying get lost or dafa ho. The OP herself defended her mother’s efforts (in Urdu), so even if you didn’t intend it to be rude, it can be misinterpreted (emphasis on misinterpreted) as such since parents are generally a sensitive topic. Even if one isn’t blaming the mom, it’s futile at this point to even pass an opinion as to whether mom’s premarital guidance proved sufficient or deficient. It doesn’t help; it’s like moving backward into the past…and “moving on” is about the present and going forward.
