Re: What counts as ‘impressive’ for a girl?
S and S you raise some very good points. I am married and my ruksathi/wedding is coming up very soon InshAllah, however, I just cannot see myself expecting a pat on the back from hubby when we have kids etc and my role changes. The way I see it is that’s my job and his is his. He would of course appreciate what I do but I wouldn’t expect to be put up on a pedestal for carrying out my roles the way he does his,
And I have probably seen and heard too many SAM and housewives whinging and complaining and demanding attention to be one of those. I am not undermining what housewives do, I just don’t understand their constant need to be applauded. I still feel as though some are trying to prove a point, to get attention because they themselves feel inadequate (which they shouldn’t).
