she is in india if she give missed call he will call immediately,she is studing IAS( iam BA)unexpectedly i saw some mail or chat with her in that he tells her,i want see u, i want talk to u, and on valentines day he wished her and did no wish me.

What should you do?

You should toughen up.

Believe that you can stand up and represent yourself. It does not matter how educated or not you are. Tell him that if he does not stop the goofing around with the "other girl" you will divorce him. Tell him you will seriously follow through on it, if he does not stop his romancing around.

If you are too soft-natured, this is the time for you to change and toughen up. Seek help from your parents if you need support for representing yourself.

Shruti,
I second spiderman that you need to be tough and strong. Try to be confident on yourself and tell your husband that you are not going to tolerate all this. Dont feel that your are inferior than any one else. Your husband is taking advantage of your soft nature. So be strong and have a positive attitude.

Re: need advice

Why don't you call her up and talk to her.
This is my understanding about unmarried women and one time I did experiences that too.
Unmarried women didn't know the depth of marriage and they don't think they should stay away from married men in terms of frindship.
I don't know how they know each other or how long they have been knowing each other.Since he is calling her sister ,may be she is thinking in terms of sister only and since he is calling her then she is ready to take the calls as she may not know the depth of marriage and it's seriousness.
On the other hand your husband may be attached her emotionally and at one point he might started liking her more and more.
So you need to talk to her and where she stands.She might have her own dreams to get married to some other person and she may think this as just friendship with your husband.So talk to her and express your concerns and see where she stands.If she don't have any other thoughts on your husband and she thinks it's as a frindship then once she understand your problem,she should stay away from it.If not then it's more into it.
Then you need to decide the other steps.

Re: need advice

Your husband considers her as a sister???Why did he wish her on Valentines day:eek....This will be tough for you,but you have to find out s solution...You cant sit and cry.Ask him WHY he married you when he likes someone else?Did you give any dowry?I second others...dont think you are inferior because of your education.SOmetimes,you may get support from inlaws..sometimes it backfires and inlaws start blaming you.SO im not sure if you need to tell your inlaws.Ultimately you should know whats best in your case and deal accordingly.Ask your husband if anything is lacking in you...how you can help in impressing him.Tell him you are ready to work towards a successful marriage...but NEVER try to show you are helpless and nothing without him.Else he will keep on taking advantage of you.

i would advice you the same as someone mentioned...try to talk to the other girl.Infact I'll ask you to think a little bit...how is your husband's support otherwise?does he talk to you properly...does he spend time with you.If not,then plan to watch movies over the weekend.Try to change yourself...yes,true love does not require one to change,but if husband is behaving like that,then we must change and see if that makes a difference.
Make that girl your friend as well...not for suspecting or anything...just my thought that maybe your husband is really just her friend,and not anything else?so involve yourself too.Maybe you can get few tips from her on how to impress your hubby.maybe he feels that she understands him better...so try talking to her.Make it clear that it is not for suspecting...but to learn more about your husband,as maybe you are not able to.Just my advice...since we do not know what is there in ur hubby's mind.

Hi Guys,
i do not know how to start but i have some problems with my DH ladies.i have been married for 3 years,he love me a lot and me too.he does not talk much,he is kind of silent person.
what my problem is,he does not talk to my parents or my sister or my brother also and not even expect me to talk to his family also.
he has alot of friends but he is very close to a girl(he calls her sister)childhood friend it seem.i feel he likes her and love her more then me,he shares every thing with her then me.
we are in us she is in india,for example when she gives a misscall he will call her immediately(every weekend more then 30 min)i do not like that we had fight about this so many times,he know i do not like this but still he does same thing.
let me tell u something last year we went to india,i went first then he came for 3 weeks,he went to delhi to see her(ours is karnataka)he brought so many things to her(tops,shoes,perfume,camera list goes like this)he did not tell me that time,ofter we came back from india unfortunately i found it and i asked him why did u tell me,YOU DO NOT LIKE THAT I BUY TO HER THAT IS WHY,I DID NOT TELL U.this is his answer.
once he said you stop to talk to your parents then i stop to talk to her.he said she is very impotant in his life.then i stoped talk about this but i bothere me very much,once i saw his gmail chat with her in that he showers a lot of care,love,emation,more then i got from him.
now he thinks i am SELFISH AND POSSESSIVE. i fell very bad about myself
AM I WRONG HERE?if i am not what should i do.

Hi Shruti,

I am sorry to hear that, you are right in what you are asking or doing, being a wife u have all the right, looks like he realy likes her, but if you right away say stop talking to her, he might not do it, try to get his attention, do what her likes, spend more time with him, you siad that he loves you a lot and u too love him a lot, so that should not be a problem, did u ever talk to that lady, if yes, then what did u feel about her?

Did she talk to you nicely, try to be freindly to her and see how ur husband reacts, if he shares all his stuff with that lady, make her share her stuff with u, try to make ur husband involved in different activites, like during weekend, go some place outside and spend time with each other.

when he is in good mood, try to strike a conversation about that girl and tell him how u feel, tell him if you did the same thing then how would he feel about it, explain him that being a wife it is ur right to get all his love and affection and no one else.

Good Luck.

Dear Shruti,
Sorry to hear your troubles. Seems like your DH is very emotionally attached to this person.

First of all if he says " Stop talking to your parents then I stop talking to her"... reply calmly that " No she is not a blood relative. I have not asked you to stop talking to your parents.So there is no comparison".

Secondly " Ask him how would he feel if you had a friend who is a boy with whom you have a similar relationship and you buy stuff for him and not tell DH about it". Say all this calmly. Ask it as a question and leave it.

And the issue about him not talking to your parents..let it go. As long as you all have cordial relationship..its fine.
