[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You married into a culture with certain expectations for family. Unless you intend to divorce before you are expected to carry them, you need to speak with your husband now and make clear what you will and will not do. Frankly, this is a conversation you should have had before you got married. It undoubtedly will cause a blow up but it’s better than getting to a crisis situation and telling them you won’t do it. The longer you wait, the more likely it is that you will be forced into a role you don’t want simply because there is no other option. Make your decisions known now so that your DH and in-laws can make appropriate plans. [/quote] You mean a supposed conversation HE should have had before marrying. HE should have been clear with his massive baggage, big strings attached “expectations.”[/quote]
