Q.
Ours is an arranged marriage in which we got just 15 days between engagement and marriage.I couldn't know much about my husband and in-laws before marriage.They're good natured and love me very much,but their way of thinking is quite different as compared to mine and my family.They're a bit narrow minded at some points like their respect and the favours they seek from my parents.Frustrated with that I protested to that in the past, not knowing the outcomes.On realising my mistake I said sorry also.But their thinkings have become worse after that.How should I cpe with this situation?Please h

Being good to good is common. Being very good to the very bad is somthing extradinory. Hope you could mean what I mean.
Knowing your inlaw's after mariage and develope and apply yourpositive attitude towards doing good to them, and some times correcting them to be good ,is also needed (with polite but firm). Always bear it in your mind.Treat your self as a mother of the family. Though you are going to your husband home as daughter in law, play your role as a mother. A mother knows the need of the children. You should be kind and the same time you should keep the strictness too. By doing this you can win the hearts of your husband kith and kin.

At times, we as girls tend to perceive our in laws as 'demons', monster, an imposing figure, a despotic tyrant!But no so!Everyone thinks differently, not all five fingers are the same. You have had a different upbringing and so do your partner and his family. How can you expect them to fit into your mould of thinking on the same lines. Marriage requires adjustments, compromise just to make the opposite person happy. I agree that there are times when you completely think poles apart to what your partner/in laws think/ But everyone has the freedom of expression to speak his mind. If you do not like something, you can't ask them to button up their lip. As a sign of respect, you should respect their point of view too. This does not necessarily mean that you have to acquiesce to their wishes/demands. You should stand your ground and be responsible for your actions. I don't' say that you have to yield every time.
