My brother in law is going to get married next month and yes...m going to be a jethani! For me...this word means threat because my jithani is one lady who cannot resist herself commenting on me for A to Z of my life.
I had first talk with my devrani (deepali) today as she will be living withbmy in laws in delhi n m staying in pune. I found her really cute fun living free bird ( as I was too in my good old mummy papa days)
So after having a long chat with her I promised myself somethings...that I would like share here
👭 dear deepali...I will not tell you to call me bhabhi or didi and will not tag you apni marzi ki maalkin on day 1... I will give you freedom to choose. I will respect your choice.
👭 darling... I will not leave you alone in kitchen to cook your first meal. I will be there to help you and guide you without judging you for your culinary skills
👭 I will make sure you get your morning bed tea...which I never got in this house. I will not miss adding a Lil elaichi as you like.
👭 I know you never skip brkfast. And when I will be there I will not let you do that after marriage to.
👭 I will always take a stand when someone will try to hurt you.
👭 I will respect your parents as I respect mine. I will never back bite about you in front of them.
👭 you will have freedom to wear whatever you want at my place. Live like; free bird as you are. I will be more happy seeing a happy you.
👭 I am a big supporter of working ladies and will always help you to make tour dy easier.
👭 no need to cover your head in front of me or my husband...respect comes from heart and is expressed through eyes. I dnt believe in parda system.
👭Be ready to receive lovely compliments from my side always
👭 I will always be in ur contact. U can trust me in keeping things between us.
👭last but not the least...you will always find a frn philosopher and a guide in your new jithani
I think we can make this world a real happy place only by taking care of each other. Lets love and happiness flourish freely on this planet. It's always starts with "me".☺

What's important is respecting eachother, my parents always taught us to use the word "Aap" instead of "Tu" so I follow that especially with my inlaws side and I address my Devrani like that. My MIL has lot of complaints about her as they live together and she is also taking care of her kid.. but I never go and tell my devrani that MIL said like that and I follow the same when she complaints about my mil. All these little things does matter.

True..so so true...you leave everything which you once called your own to be in a new family. Its not exactly leaving behind everything these days like earlier but something changes...there are a lot of expectations from you and new responsibilities too....you are judged for many things and sometimes the time given to adjust is very less. Comments on things like your beauty matching their standards, cooking skills, house management skills etc make you feel as if you haven't learnt anything from your parents. Fact is that everyone knows and learns a lot its just each families ways and thinking which is different...difficult phase...trying to make people your own, winning over them while understanding your spouse too.. Not many people are there to comfort you..kudos to you for keeping such a heart of gold for your devrani..she is damn lucky to have you!!
