Hi dear. I can understand what you are going through Try to communicate it your husband and be firm and polite to convey your boundaries to your mother in law.

You should talk to your mil and your husband both about. Tell them how this kind of behaviour will have a negative impact on the children. I feel honest communication would make things better. Also the things your mil is very particular about and is touchy about, make sure you get that task done, you can hire people to do it also so that she is not triggered. Try and understand her point of view, it will help you in having peace too.

First and foremost calm down.. Getting agitated is not going to resolve things. Talk to your husband and your Mother in law.. let them know what's acceptable and what is not. Talk to your mother in law seperately also and try to find what her real issue is ... she too must be going through some challenges and venting her frustration out on you .. Having said that you nit necessarily have to bear the brunt ! All the best 👍

Hey! So sorry to hear about this..what you can do please note down the points where your mother in law gets agitated or scream on you and try to find out the pattern of her behaviour. Then you can modify your actions and reactions according to that so that she will also try to understand that you are making efforts to understand her as well. Hope this works for you..and of you want more suggestions you can join live sessions.

So sad I went for a movie with my son and when I came home I had my husband not eating food and calling me names. Just because I went out for a movie with my son . Does it happen with u - how do u deal with it

It's okay to go and enjoy with your children especially when your partner doesn't have time. You don't have to restrict yourself just because your partner doesn't have time for you!

He might also wanted to go with you both and must be calling you names out of jealousy as he missed all the fun with his family 🥰

Hey. I have had a doubt for sometime now. I always saw my parents as not one. like fighting and all. it was very rare that they both are on the same page. I wanted to know if we live together before marriage can we avoid these kinds of misunderstandings or conflicts after marriage. So like Is living together before marriage a bad idea or an okay one?

Living together absolutely doesnt guarantee marriage's success
Living together doesn't guarantee the success of your marriage. Infact even when u live in you will face conflicts, misunderstandings, however it will help you both in understanding each other and make your bond stronger.

Hey @Relationshipcoachchitkala Lately, I've been thinking Should men divorce women who are unsuitable for them? It touches upon various aspects of relationships, personal happiness, and family dynamics. Now, adding kids to the equation brings a whole new layer of complexity. It's not just about the couple anymore, it's about the well-being of the children involved.
It depends on so many parameters, there is no one rule that fits all. So it would not be right to generalise it that way
Anonymous-12d
Deciding whether to divorce a partner who is unsuitable for you is a deeply personal and complex decision that involves weighing various factors, including individual happiness, relationship dynamics, and the well-being of any children involved. Ultimately, the decision to divorce is a deeply personal one that depends on individual circumstances, values, and priorities. It's important to carefully consider the implications of divorce on yourself, your partner, and any children involved, and to approach the decision with empathy, compassion, and thoughtful consideration of everyone's well-being.

My husband and I do everything together and rely on each other too much. It's become codependent and I'm losing my independence. How can I set boundaries and find a healthy balance between closeness and autonomy in our relationship without pushing him away? @Jaspreetkaur
Hey dear, i know how it feels, so would simply like to give two suggestions here, an effective way of communication is something can really help in this where we are choosing the right words and communicating without hurting them 2nd is, by following certain boundaries and actually doing the things with them exactly the same way as we expect them to do with us. Slowly they will strt following the same.
@PsychotherapyCentral is relationship coach. Please share your suggestions.
