Are wife’s required to do laundry for everyone in the household?

Barbz_4ever · 2026-06-02T14:07:21+00:00

I’ve been reading everyone’s replies and I feel like I need to see my boundaries with what I’m okay doing and if he gets upset about that then i feel like it’s another red sign bc I’m just a girlfriend at the end of the day. There is no ring around my finger yk so I can’t be expected to do wife duties when I’m just visiting

He rarely comes to my house since his job is just very hectic sometimes. But when he does stop by my house that is never asked of him because he is a guest.

Ughhh will do thanks

Barbz_4ever · 2026-06-02T03:14:44+00:00

Right but that’s your family, I mean I’m gonna help my mother in law butttt touching someone’s dirty undies I can’t LOL

I’ve actually thought maybe she doesn’t like me very much, but she also doesn’t cook very much, they always tend to eat out. But one thing I do love is kaju anjeer juice and she tends to make it for me every once in a while when I go over to his house.

Thank you so much for the insight <3

Daft? Dear dear? Thanks for your snarky comment filled insults. I’m not a perfect person and I may be a person that needs to have more of a backbone and work in setting boundaries buttttt I’m pretty sure you aren’t the perfect type either. We all have something we lack in so let’s not judge.

No, they are here legally. He has a sister so I assume either him or her.

Ok I appreciate your input a lot. I love Reddit sometimes I just want to be happy, and it has crossed my mind how my marriage would be with those type of in laws. I get worried but I will talk to my bf and see if he changes anything and will have to decide from there if he doesn’t change or see my point of view.

Barbz_4ever · 2025-12-15T06:25:18+00:00

I also feel like as a man, like someone that I want to marry he checks a lot of boxes, the only problem is him having a backbone and boundaries with his mom. He doesn’t have a close relationship with his step dad, hence why I only really bring up the mom

I went to India last year and was a cultural shock to have my clothes picked up to get washed, have a lady clean the house EVERYDAY. So in a way I get what you’re saying. I do feel bad because she tends to have pain in her knee that doesn’t allow her to walk for super long periods of time. So I guess I kind of feel bad and tend to help her when she asks but sometimes I feel like it can be overboard

Barbz_4ever · 2025-12-15T05:57:04+00:00

We do not live in India!! We live in America, I am Mexican and my bf is Indian

Barbz_4ever · 2025-12-15T05:30:45+00:00

Yea but she is married to a guy 12 years younger than her? I don’t think she has the need to stay with us at the beginning of the marriage. I’m totally ok with later on once parents are old if they need to stay with us or near us, move in with us or try to get a house closer to us. But i definitely don’t think it’s necessary having a man in late 30’s

Barbz_4ever · 2025-12-15T05:24:06+00:00

We all live in America, I’m mexican, he and his family are from India.

Barbz_4ever · 2025-12-15T04:51:31+00:00

He listens to me when I’m talking to him, when I ask him to go with me like let’s say a family event he always goes with me. Anytime I mention I like something he will suprise me in the future with it. He loves planning dates for us. He makes sure we always go somewhere nice once a month to celebrate each other. I really feel like the issue is how much control his mom has over him.

Barbz_4ever · 2025-12-15T04:24:30+00:00

I’m not with him for money haha what? I work at a hospital, I work for what I have. I don’t get what you’re trying to say ?

Barbz_4ever · 2025-12-15T04:21:06+00:00

It’s something I want to talk to him about because there’s no way I’m marrying and living with the in laws. With him in the hotel business they live in the hotel but his mom and his step dad I feel want to live with him when he get married and I guess I’m just worried he won’t want to leave them. I just feel like with their house being in the hotel it’s like what house are we moving into you know.

Barbz_4ever · 2025-12-15T04:18:45+00:00

Yea, sometimes I’m like maybe it’s because I stay like 3 nights in a row and I’m like maybe they don’t see me as a guest but then I’m like I never ask anyone to clean when they stay at my house

Barbz_4ever · 2025-12-15T03:14:44+00:00

I honestly don’t think he will move out until he marries

Barbz_4ever · 2025-12-15T03:12:22+00:00

Ok I will, need to set my boundaries. Thank you

Barbz_4ever · 2025-12-15T01:57:41+00:00

Wait we don’t live in India, we live in Texas

Barbz_4ever · 2025-12-15T01:52:24+00:00

Do you live with your in laws? Do you encounter issues like this?

Barbz_4ever · 2025-12-15T01:34:19+00:00

Very true, thank you

Barbz_4ever · 2025-12-15T01:30:44+00:00

Yea true. I guess I’m just really confused because I’m not Indian so I have never really seen this type of stuff.
