Thanx for sharing ur story and Hats off to ur hubby for supporting u n m glad tht nw ur situation is better.Bt ur post scared me... m brahmin n my bf z rajput(I guess rajput n kshatriya r same) and his family still lives in village... aftr lot of discussions his parents hv agreed for engagemnt... bt they dnt lyk me at all coz apart frm being of another religion i m nt a wife material.. a disaster at cooking n cnt wear sarees.. and also they wantd a gal who cn help thm in their household chores. I ws toh thinking tht all this things happen in soaps n movies only... bt u faced it in real.. hope I dnt hv to face all this...
anyways if you have confidence in your bf that he will support you then u dont have to worry. besides be strong. remember jab ghee seedhi ungli se nahi nikalta toh ungli tedhi karni padti hai.
remembering one thing there is nothing wrong in learning new culture, language and cooking. you are just enhancing your skills.. do it just for the sole purpose of self improvement not for pleasing someone else or rather imagine if you are left alone in life you will have to learn these things especially cooking to survive. . also make sure your bf's family already knows the real you, do not pretend, you should be proud of yourself. Dont retaliate instantly be quiet but one thing if someone insults you dont let them walk over you, give it back to them in a calm composed manner and choose your words carefully so that your words achieve the purpose of letting the opposite person that you will not take insults like this from anyone and also make sure you are not caught in a catch 22 situation because of your words.
for example the daadi of my husband always used to say that i stole her diamond - 'mera heera chura liya tumne' and i used to give it back smiling way - 'daadi' maine toh aapke heere ko ghis kar aur bhi chamka diya.' 😉
