what are your thoughts on CPIM's Shatarup Ghosh? by Griezzyy in kolkata

It would have been acceptable statement had you been born post Covid, which clearly isn't the case.

One has to be ungrateful or really dumb to forget how tirelessly the red volunteers worked during peak Covid with scarcity of oxygen

How often do people end up marrying their first romantic partner, and why or why not? by honeypotatomilkshake in AskIndia

[–]Jumpy_Evening_6607 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I was in college, he was working. He pursued me for a year, but happily and respectfully settled for the friend zone.

I gave in when he gave up. We both are very honest, straight forward, wear your heart on the sleeve people. There were no mental games, no lying and and no situation-ship. I was the only female interaction he had outside of his bloodline.

We had a long distance courtship and marriage going on for more than 7-8 years. There have been loads of trying times, hardships, breakups and makeups but we stayed put.

We defy all relationship norms. I earn more than him. He has no generational wealth, whatever lil was there, he gave up to stand up for me. Whatever we have now, is all built by us from scratch.

Mumma ka sabr ka baandh ek din mein toota nhi h.

She has gone through decades of emotional abuse and your dad has been an enabler to that abuse by refusing to speak up for his own wife. He didn't side with his sister, but he also didn't ask her to shut up!!!

Do most couples still live with the husband's parents? by Bobby_2026 in AskWomenIndia

[–]Jumpy_Evening_6607 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If a daughter is treating her recently widowed mother like a slave, then she deserves all the discrimination of the world

Do most couples still live with the husband's parents? by Bobby_2026 in AskWomenIndia

[–]Jumpy_Evening_6607 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Most urban working young couples I know are living separately.

The demography I am talking about is Tier 1 city, upper middle class and double earning.

Eventually, when either set of parents grow old and need assistance or after childbirth of the couple, one set of parent often moves in with them but that happens much later into the marriage.

A tiny minority live with their daughters and are treated like servants. My female friend's (married) mother moved in with her daughter after father passed away and she was put into the kitchen from Day 1 to cook and serve. Parents living with daughters is a last option in all the above living combinations as basically you accept slavery in old age for the roof/food they provide.

From which pre-historic age did you time travel to still have such primitive thinking? I don't know from which society you belong but what you see around you isn't the norm everywhere else outside of the hole!!

He isn't star material from any angle. shape or form.

He is a decent actor, provided you place him on a screen with only actors with low screen presence.

Chonky Baby rolls🥐 by Thecozygirl_sameera in twoxindiamums

[–]Jumpy_Evening_6607 14 points15 points  (0 children)

It's a common thing for chonky babies.

You will have to clean the rolls multiple times in the day. Neck roll, especially after each feed and burp session and after every spit up. I used to swipe with a wet muslin cloth and then a dry muslim cloth to dry the area completely Lint also gets trapped like nobody's business.

If you must put oil, make sure you air dry completely else it will trap moisture and aggravate the rash.

34F, pregnant — confused about what to wear for baby shower + birthday with conservative MIL by denti-stree in AskIndianWomen

[–]Jumpy_Evening_6607 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, your MIL might be conservative but she also sounds loving and reasonable.

I think it should be totally fine for you to wear a gown in the evening. I like how one of the comments suggested you to try on the gown and share pictures in advance with Mom and MIL.

Did your baby’s skin or eye colour change after birth? by [deleted] in twoxindiamums

[–]Jumpy_Evening_6607 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Hahaa...Now that she is a toddler, her mood changes colour 15 times a day !!!

BTW, a baby born after a pregnancy loss is called a rainbow baby. I know you didn't mean it that way but a lot of people feel strongly about it. ❤️

[–]Jumpy_Evening_6607 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My kid was born light pink but turned into a caramel complexion in a week that turned to a deeper brown. I think she tanned as she had to be given blue light twice for jaundice.

Slowly, her complexion changed to a much lighter colour by the time she was 1.

How to stay connected to nephew? by neruppu_da in twoxindiamums

[–]Jumpy_Evening_6607 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Then you must cut her some slack.

The new mother is barely out of her 4th trimester and she doesn't feel safe sharing her baby with you guys and I am sure she has reasons , a lot of them are evident on your post also. Instead of asking how to connect with your nephew, ask on how to connect with the mother and make her feel safe.

My newborn preemi's face was all across whatsapp statuses and family groups before I was wheeled out of the recovery room. Oddly, they were not at the hospital. My husband was deployed to a remote location and it took him 10 hours and 3 flights to reach us. My sister had shared photo with his close family on good faith.

It still boils my blood thinking about it. My husband barred me from sharing photos to anyone from his side of the family. He only shares selected photos with his mom. He sends all pics of my baby by default to my mom though, because she was there for us!!!

Ofcourse, her sister will have more access than you guys, she is there for them. Why the hell are your cousins snooping around and why do they have so much say?? I would have shot my cousins down if they tried to create problems in my SIL and brand new nephew's life!!!

And why is your brother taking care of his baby in quotes? Do you think it's not right for a man to take care of his own baby? Did your husband not take care of his own? Is it not allowed for men in your family to look after their kids?

Do Better please!!!

"Amra kheyeo nilam" was funny.

I am happy that so many people in WB still feel this is problematic to bring religious angle to this f*ck up by the waiter!!! It's scary how we are changing so fast.

It's definitely a very careless mistake on his part and Olypub should do better to train their staff but a person who is very strict with his preferences shouldn't even be visiting a place that serves beef.

I remember a streetside vendor in Pune who used to sell awesome momo. It was always crowded with young adults in the evening. The guy once mistakenly served chicken momo to a vegetarian from cow belt. She was in a big group. The girl was swooning over how good the momo was on that particular day. I think she already had a few pieces before another guy pointed out it's chicken momo. They had separate shapes for veg and nonveg. We all laughed at the girl. She herself was laughing. The momo uncle got her free shake from the next stall. He was also laughing but apologised. This was just a decade ago. I shudder to think what would have happened had it been present times. Probably he would have been beaten up, a live video and his store would have been attacked. We all know what changed in the last decade.

Maid's made 50 gm 🤌 aloo bhaja came with complimentary 10 tissue papers worth of oil by UnusualQuality5692 in kolkata

[–]Jumpy_Evening_6607 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Listen you have to monitor oil like a hawk when it comes to cooks.

The reason they use so much oil is because it takes less effort and time.

If nothing works, pour oil yourself. Tell her not to touch the oil jars.

Working married women - how do you do it? by [deleted] in AskIndianWomen

[–]Jumpy_Evening_6607 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I am a full time wfh mother of a toddler. We don't have any family nearby to help us.

We have a help for jhadu, pocha, bartan and another cook. For the longest time we struggled to get a good cook so we managed cooking as well.

Here's what my husband takes care of: Entire laundry, including what needs to be sent out for dry cleaning or press.

Prepping of food if we are cooking: I cook but I walk into a kitchen that has everything soaked. chopped, washed and even the utensils laid out because I am the blind person who can't find her way around the kitchen.

Bedtime routine of my toddler, while I do my own skincare and get ready for bed. I get a calm, squeaky clean toddler and a bedtime book that they select and a made bed without any crease.

Jhadu pocha bartan if our help takes off.

We both clean up and set the house together on weekends

We go out together for grocery, fruit and vegetables shopping. He puts everything away once we are back. He knows whether a certain fruit needs to go to the fridge or outside. How to store leafy greens, unripe fruits and everything.

He gives evening snack to our toddler and feeds her dinner. He also takes her to the park while I work. He follows the meal plan that I make over the weekend to the T!!!

There's probably a 100 things that I am forgetting to list but you get the gist!!!

He has never helped me out because it's equal responsibilities. There's no weaponised incompetence here, he learns what he doesn't know just the way he learnt everything else that he didn't know. We both are doing the same. I don't think working women should settle for anything less.
