Marriage problems

From a serious marriage question to best restaurants in town, what on earth?

It was a subliminal message to say that a good marriage is based on good foundations and to lay good foundations one must put an effort into eating out! It's not all about homemade chapatis

Okey, I see :))
 
No good human being will ever be rude obnoxious to their elders. My wife and I had an arranged marriage. We have a 15 year age gap, I got nikaofied to her without even talking to her and then we basically were in a long distance relationship for almost 2 years.

Its been two months since our final two marriage ceremonies and her move to Canada with me. The way she looks after the house, looks after me, my parents including my terminally ill mom even though we have hired psws, helpers and have told her to chill relax and at best just sit with mom and make the most of whatever time she has left. My feelings for her have further multiplied ten times.

To the OP, you can't let your wife disrespect your parents, siblings or any of your elders or even you under any circumstances. When it comes to very serious topics, issues you as the husband and man have to lay down the law. I don't know about your financial situation and if your wife needs to work or not, maybe she wants to work but maybe you can consider getting a baby sitter to help out if you feel very strongly about your parents not being responsible for having to watch over the kids through out the day. This is something you, your parents, wife will have to sit down and resolve.
 
Btw how difficult is it to make two chappatis? Here in Canada especially in Toronto, GTA you can ready made packets of rotis at Walmart, No Frills, Costco. I just take it to the stove and get it heated up. Just takes 5-10 minutes.

England has the highest amount of Pakistanis living ie one million. I will be very shocked and surprised to hear Halal food, Halal Meat and getting ready made chappatis is an issue there

That can depend a lot on the wife's personality. Yours might happily do all the housework, look after parents and do the housework, but that doesn't suit everyone. Also I see you didn't mention if your wife works. Mine used to work but once we had a young family she stepped away from it, and I earn enough so she doesn't have to work - although in reality she has enough work to do maintaining the home.

I have a cousin who is married to a doormat type wife who does all the work in the home, and even when the younger brother got married she did all the housework for him and his wife as well until they moved out. The younger brother's wife was the complete opposite of the doormat wife, she treated her like a personal servant. Some women are very meek and submissive, and some women are very domineering and aggressive, no different to men really.

Man stop making cringe statements like ‘nikahofied’
 
Parents are to be loved and respected, there is no question about it. But we all heard the term monster in law. They are everywhere. In Pakistan, bad saases are the stuff of legends. Books have been written about them, Tv dramas and films have been made about them. They are known to be the most vile creatures who want to dominate, manipulate and control. This character is not found just in books, TV and films. It is very much real. You will find the dreaded saas in most households in Pakistan.


Ab Wo bhi kissi ki maan hai. She is a parent of some poor sap who is trying to find the right balance between a dutiful, loving, respecting son and as a kind/ just husband who does right by his wife.


Like I keep saying: it’s very difficult for us to handle such stuff when our own mothers/daughters/sisters are the victims but when they perpetrate such crimes, all of sudden we tend to be reminded of how parents are to be respected.

I am making a general statement and not trying to level any accusation here on anyone.
 
Live-In Relationships Covered Under Domestic Violence Law: Government

Live-in relationships, which are in the nature of marriage, are covered under the provisions of the protection of domestic violence law, the government said in Rajya Sabha on Thursday, citing Supreme Court judgments.

Law Minister Kiren Rijiju was asked whether the government intends to introduce a "system" for "registering" live-in relationships and whether it intends to provide a set of protections for people in these relationships.

He was also asked whether the government intends to recognise non-heterosexual live-in relationships.

In his written response, the minister said, "In so far as the protection of people in live-in relationships is concerned, The Protection of Women from Domestic Violence Act, 2005 provides for the protection of the rights of women who are victims of violence of any kind occurring within the family and for matters connected therewith or incidental thereto".

In Navtej Singh Johar and others Vs Union of India and others case, the Supreme Court held that consensual sexual acts of adults in private are constitutional, he noted.

Citing provisions of the law, he said 'domestic relationship' means a relationship between two persons who live or have, at any point in time, lived together in a shared household, when they are related by consanguinity, marriage or through a relationship in the nature of marriage, adoption or are family members living together as a joint family.

The Supreme Court and other courts, in a number of judgements, have held the view that live-in-relationship which are in the nature of marriage is covered under the provisions of the Act, Mr Rijiju said.

In Supreme Court, Karnataka Supports Prosecution Of Husband For Marital Rape

The Karnataka government on Thursday has filed an affidavit in the Supreme Court and supported the prosecution of a husband under the marital rape charges.

The state government in its affidavit said the Karnataka High Court was correct in its March judgment in ordering the trial of a man for allegedly raping his wife.

The government in its affidavit stated that whether the charge finally stands is a matter of trial and that the accused in the case cannot be exonerated at this stage despite the immunity against marital rape provided to husbands under IPC.

"The High Court of Karnataka has considered all the questions of law involved in the present petition and it does not require any interference by the Supreme Court," the state government's affidavit stated while seeking dismissal of the husband's challenge against the High Court verdict.

On March 23 the High Court declined to quash the charge of rape framed under Section 376 of the Indian Penal Code (IPC) against a man accused of raping and keeping his wife as a sex slave.

The Karnataka High Court had pronounced the verdict while refusing to quash the FIR for marital rape while holding that exception 2 of Section 375 of the IPC - which makes husbands immune to the marital rape charges provided the wife is not a minor - is "not absolute".

Challenging the High Court judgement, the husband approached the top court.

In May the top court issued notice to the state on an appeal filed by the man against the Karnataka High Court judgment.
