My Mom's Expectations

January 16, 2022 7:32am CST
If you are born in Indian Society then these are general expectation from your mom - 1) As a student one should score good in 10th and Junior college 2) As a student one should complete this higher education 3) As an adult one should get a job Lets talk about 4th At age of 28-29th they expect their son to get married and give them grand kids to play with. While I was trying to dodge the question mom was asking as I don't want to get married. I told my mom - Hey I know your expectation here, I will fulfill for sure. We adopted 6 puppies few days back. Now she holds them like babies and feed them. Today while she was feeding them Samolac I told her She this is what you were looking for, I hope you are Happy I don't understand why she threw that Samolac box at me Am I missing something here

You shouldn't feel pressured to do something you don't want to do. I wasn't intelligent enough to go to university and as for a job I call myself self-employed and stay at home and paint.

Indian society works on pressure only. We don't study until we know we have exam next week We don't complete our work until we have deadline on our head! So one will not take up the responsibility until someone force you to take it up

@sharonelton Actually it's not that terrible you are thinking. Its more like you start teasing loving each other after you get married. Process is still the same but in case you messed it up initially then you will have to live with it. (now a days many chose to divorce , old times they used to worry about themselves and after divorce problems alot. )

@sharonelton If a relationship is started with a truth and both are ready to leave the past and do a fresh start after marriage, I don't see any problem. When you start living with such mindset in same room as that of your better half. It will be tough for you to not fall in love with him

@mildredtabitha I haven't given up, My conditions and restriction will never match one girl's expectations. Hence I don't keep hopes, But I would take it as surprise if someone matches with all restrictions and conditions and ready to move in with me

6 pupies are just too much. And you should get married to the pups´ mother. She wants a marriage

OMG! You're so funny, little brother! Now I know why our mom likes me better than you! Have you given her a picture of Pretty and told her that's her granddaughter from her other son? (I'm laughing so hard tears are streaming from my eyes!)

I’m afraid you are missing something but I wouldn’t advise marrying until you find the woman you love. A loveless marriage is the saddest thing in the world.

@RubyHawk Arrange marriages are usually loveless which takes time to understand people once you are married

You know if you think this way - its more delicate to handle a puppy over a baby. After certain age your baby will talk but puppy will be puppy for you for their entire like as they can't speak

@nela13 "a baby will melt your heart." Mom can say so, not a dad . Am I right with that statement ?
