why its so hard to survive with inlaws

Re: why its so hard to survive with inlaws

Dude all I've gotta say is living with inlaws is definitely the root of all evil. I don't care how nice they are. :)

Personally I would never live with my inlaws, one of the biggest reasons I decided to marry my husband was cuz he lived alone and everyone else in his family including his dad are independent. That being said, if someone is living in a joint system, they need time to adjust. Your sister has grown up a certain way and her inlaws will not be exactly like your family. Everyone will need to adjust to the new person. It won't be an over night process.

I do however think that your sister should be appreciated. It's funny cuz I was just talking to my husband about this last week. His sister was sick with a cold and he decided to have her cone live with us until she got better. Me being the veryblunt person I am said, two months ago I was sick and she didn't even call to ask me how I was doing and I was way more sick than her. (I normally dont care if someone calls to see how I'm doing but feel that if u don't do it then u shouldn't expect me to do it either). So the first day she got here I made her soup and food ( mind u, I rarely cook so this in itself was a big deal). She kept saying thank u whenever I did something but I constantly felt like I was being used since she never cared to call me. Then my FIL called and thanked me for taking care of his daughter. Yes I am mean. But if I don't like something, I speak up and make sure I'm heard.

Oh and my inlaws are the nicest people ever I guess I’m the mean one :snooty:

Sumorani i also married my husband coz it was already decided we’ll live alone but no my inlaws never left us alone.wat abt SIL/MIL visiting ur house every day or every second day for 5-6 hrs straight mostly with no phone calls .n whenever they know u went on a long drive or a resturaunt they get black n pale n say “humain kyoon nahi bataya”:hoonh:

Re: why its so hard to survive with inlaws

^LOL. That has never happened to me.
I don't have a MIL, all my SILs are married except one. The unmarried one lives alone, ten min car drive from us and visits us once a month when we call our friends over just to hang out. My FIL lives an hour away and doesn't wanna live with us and loves me. Intact every other weekend that I go to visit him, he does all the cooking... How horrible am I! In my defence I visited him last weekend and made dinner Saturday night. ;) he loved it.

great advice! the whole keeping ur mouth shut and not complaining 24/7 that is the best thing to do, but thats easier said than done, how do you pull that off when you have things on ur mind?

Re: why its so hard to survive with inlaws

this is the thing.No MIL :) but SILs esp married ones can b a hard nut to crack as well.well i'm really glad for all those who hav no nonsense inlaws.

Re: why its so hard to survive with inlaws

as a newly wed i got a joint family ,and my in laws were so nice specially my FIL was so nice .... i always did my best with them as well.....
I am the person who believe in to do the best with every one and leave the rest on Allah .... and Allah awarded me a lot ... but pplz to whom I dealt nicely were not nice to me in return....it hurts me for a while but latter i dont care......
The rule of thumb is ....do what really make sense to u .... and this is the fact no one should interfere in anyone's problem .... only your sister can deal the best....

^its sad but its true jo sub k saath achcha kertay hain un k saath he bura hota hai n jo kisi ka bhala nahi kertay wo ziada khush rehtay hain but this is all temporary n real reward lies with Allah n he knows who deserves wat if not in this world then hereafter
