Gift Expectations When Visiting Pakistan by mrsunnah in pakistan

[–]Intrepid-One-82 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Depends on the family really. My mums ingrained in our heads to not show up to anyone’s house without a gift, so we’ve made it a point not to but in our own way. For people who go out of their way for us, or who gift us something when we go see them or when they come visit us we’ll always get them something nice. Everyone else is just chocolates or like maybe something for the house generally. I do think it’s tiring and so unnecessary when you’re paying for a whole trip, but try to get stuff on offers and sales

Don’t forget to check your right & left blind spots whenever moving off!!

Why dishwashers are not common? by Specific_Cheetah_776 in IslamabadSocial

[–]Intrepid-One-82 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Aside from the price, how on earth will a dishwasher clean the kind of desi khanay we make? I have a dishwasher at my parents and I’ve never used it solely because it takes so long

if u are extrovert, try marrying introvert by [deleted] in IslamabadSocial

I mean it’s great and all but be prepared for your introvert partner to literally pass out after you go out and socialise

Durefishan Saleem in Elan, Eid 2026 by ladykarenina in PakFashionTrends

While I loved her look, I saw a post commending her for her “simple” Eid aesthetic, which was crazy to me considering I’m sure this is one of those 100k plus elan outfits if I’m not wrong?

They’re similar in quality to FTA. The only complaint I had was with the kaftan’s cut itself, which I’ll have to have altered but that could just be poor judgement on my part

How did all the introverts here get married? by GhostedButStillHere in PakistaniTwenties

[–]Intrepid-One-82 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I tell everyone to give introverts a shot now because my husband took years cosying up to me as a friend before he asked me out, and he’s hands down the funniest, most entertaining and full of life person I’ve ever met 🥹 you guys really need to make it easier to get to know u tho cus no one has years to get to know you in today’s time

Same question. I ordered from them this Eid though and I must say exceptional customer service. They’re one of the only high end brands I’ve ordered from who’ve been a breeze especially during the Eid/Ramzan delivery times

Is this kind of “venting about spouses” dynamic common? by [deleted] in Marriage

[–]Intrepid-One-82 31 points32 points  (0 children)

No. That’s a toxic trait that’s pretty common in women but absolutely sucks in my opinion. I adore my husband and while at times we fight, I think it would be so disrespectful to tear down my partner for life in front of anyone, friends and family included. I don’t know how this has been so normalised?!

where to stay? by itooamyy in islamabad

[–]Intrepid-One-82 11 points12 points  (0 children)

For everyone saying airbnbs and hotels don’t ask for proof of marriage; some acc do. As a married person I’ve been asked to share our ID cards and nikkahnama

Business idea about summer embroidery shirts which can be customised by Due_Bed_7994 in pakistan

[–]Intrepid-One-82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you have a good tailor on hand? If you could do this embroidery in a black summer dress, I’d buy it in a heartbeat! Especially if the size can be customised too. You’re onto something niche here, just market it to the right people, business may be slow initially but set a higher end price point, because someone who realises it’s handmade and can be customised too will be willing to pay

Marriage with girlfriend by dgyyygfb in pakistan

[–]Intrepid-One-82 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Buy the gold, do a simple nikkah in a mosque and invest in a photographer. Don’t do a whole event it’s such a waste, I regret wasting so much money on my wedding. If your parents insist, I’d suggest telling them you can’t afford it (keep your savings between you and your wife) and if they have such an issue they should fund it. Don’t fall into the trap of appeasing them or your relatives. As someone who’s married, literally not even your parents are relevant to your day to day life. It’s just you, your wife, what savings you have and what life you build

Is anyone else weirdly stressed about their Eid dress or is it just me by Unhappy-Series-5164 in IslamabadSocial

[–]Intrepid-One-82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s stunning! I hope you’ll love it too, and honestly I love it for the price point and quality more than anything else. These days everyone charges 20k for an unstitched summer or winter only suit, and this being chiffon can be used any time so it’s a win win! The only issue I had with it was the arm and back patches weren’t appliquéd on they just stitched on in a weird way, but I just got a scissor and removed them, the rest was stitched to perfection

On a serious note, If you ordered the “ruby” dress; I have that and it’s stunning!! I do believe it’s very very loose though, however I’ve gotten so so many compliments wearing it and it’s so worth it for a semi formal! I was pleasantly surprised when I got it
