You have sailed through first round of selection process for
arranged marriage. Now, it is time to meet your future mother-in-law. You must
be happy and nervous at the same before meeting your future mother-in-law. Don’t worry, we are here to make your first
meeting tension free and hassle free. We are here sharing some points with you
that can help you to be prepared for your meeting.
Don’t give false
impression: Don’t try to give fake impression to your mother-in-law. Don’t
try to impress your would-be-mother in law by saying something or telling
something which you actually don’t mean or do in the future. Don’t say things like “I love cooking” when
even you hardly able to cook a few dishes. So, avoid making such statements
which you would not be able to do in the future.
Don’t start your
conversation with negative statements:
It might be you must have not liked something in her son or you didn’t
like some of his statements, but avoid mentioning such things. It might be you
want to mention this because you want him to change his habit for good, but
don’t attempt such suggestions in your first meeting with her. It may offend
her and create a negative impression in her mind.
Don’t get tempted to
share intimate information: If this is love-cum-arranged marriage and you
know him from a very long time, you know him very closely, still resist the
temptation to share something really personal about your relationship with her.
Telling her how much he loves you, the place you already hold in his life will
not make her happy. So keep such important and personal details with you only.
Don’t share details
about your past relationship: No matter how friendly and loving your
mother-in-law is, still avoid sharing your past relationship details with her.
Your husband can easily accept and digest such information, but your
mother-in-law will never happily accept this information. You surely don’t want
her to do your character assassination in front of everyone before your
marriage.
Never share your
family secrets with her: If she knows your family very well and shares good
relationship with your parents, still don’t get tempted to share some family
secrets with her. It may be counted negative and in future used against you in the
future.
Don’t argue with her
in any situation: If you don’t agree with her over anything then don’t tell
this upfront or avoid arguing with her. Rather, just try to ignore such topic
or politely say that you are not agreeing with her over the topic, but still
respect her thoughts. Don’t put your thoughts forward unless you are asked to
give your opinion.
