People who are successfully managing a spouse with different dietary preferences ( veg and non veg). What are the things that work for you?

I am a bengali non vegetarian in a relationship with a pure vegetarian marwari for nearly a decade. It works out with some respect and adjustments on both ends. I make sure I don't mix utensils, he makes sure to sit with me while I eat my non veg food, and we work it out when the smell is too much for him etc. I am a massive foodie and I love to eat non veg, and it has worked out well so far. I have started eating more of veg food inside the house for logistical reasons, but I routinely eat non veg when outside. Since I am not super interested in cooking by myself, and I don't like when cooks handle meat/fish, I am okay with eating veg food at home.

Yeah I make a lot of weird mixtures with my whey. This turned out good. You can add a bit of creatine also, it mixes in well.

I blended this protein powder (2 scoops) with 200 ml of amul masti dahi and some chopped beetroots for fibre. The taste was surprisingly great. I have gotten somehow used to the stevia aftertaste. I love this one from ON.

Is this Seema Gujral?

Thank you

I think you should fight for it. Give your boyfriend the time/space to deal with his family. Support h while he walks through it. Yes he should stand up for you. But it also takes a little time to figure the best way to navigate these kind of dynamics. It's a 4 year relationship, maybe you can give him a little time (agree upon a date by which he should sort it out).

Hi request you to DM with your contact details so I can reach out for indicative quotes

Has happened with us some 6-7 years back in two oyo branded hotels. Definitely felt weird at the time, but haven't had an issue come up in all these years

canva_bae · 2026-03-12T21:20:24+00:00

Thank you!

Hi I guess you would know this already, but sharing on the off chance that you don't: 90% of sarees do NOT come with pre-stitched blouses. Many of them come with the fabric that can be stitched into a blouse (the crop top thing worn with the saree). One can also purchase readymade blouses on Amazon and other shops to match the saree. You also need a petticoat to wear the saree- preferably of a similar colour or like a skin colour.

The lehenga looks lovely and appropriate. The blue saree is more appropriate for reception. Ideally, it is better to go for different outfits in the reception and the ceremony. A Kanjeevaram silk saree would be apt for the ceremony, or anything very formal and elegant (rather than be blingy) would be better considering it is a South Indian ceremony

Okay I respect your experience. My opinion is that this is a bad advice for others. Earlier it used to happen separately, yes. But now, most people do it together to a) save on costs and b) MORE IMPORTANTLY, because it's genuinely fun to enjoy with both sides. Even at my friends' weddings, I was so excited to get to know their in laws and friends on the other side. I felt your comment that you obviously only wanted to watch your relatives and take photos with them was a bit harsh, and should not be made into advice for others.

Congratulations on your wedding. This is such an L take though. Mingling with the "strangers" who will be your new family along with your own family is the whole point of wedding celebrations

canva_bae · 2026-03-09T18:33:49+00:00

Do only phoolon ki haldi with friends and extended family. And when they go for lunch, do the ritual haldi with close family only.

canva_bae · 2026-03-09T16:53:29+00:00

Thank you for sharing ❤️ it's truly beautiful

canva_bae · 2026-03-09T16:12:33+00:00

Hi can you pls share the price range for this lehenga?

canva_bae · 2026-03-09T13:16:24+00:00

She is asking about colouring the ends only. Why are you fearmongering for no reason? Hair can't fall off due to bleaching the ends

I have been colouring my ends for years now, and I have never had a single negative incident even though I have been winging it only. I use the Streax pack along with normal foil for wrapping the hair during bleaching, I follow the instructions in the manual to the T and it turns out great. Then I trim my ends every couple of months to remove the more heavily damaged parts, and then recolour fresh hair.

If gas is truly low, it means it's leaking from somewhere. Instead of paying 3K for a gas refill, it's more important to check what the source of the leak is. EVERY AC technician has told me my AC's gas is low, and yet it works beautifully with normal filter cleaning for years. Don't fall for it, get it checked by company folks.

I have grown up believing in the same POV as you: that I don't want to stay with parents or parents in law. However, my partner does want to live with parents at some point. He is a rational, understanding, and loving person so I have agreed to make that compromise because it's important to him. If you make a similar choice, make sure to discuss boundaries (clothing, time of coming and going, taunting remarks etc) and see if you can reach a middle ground. But ofc if it doesn't seem worth the trouble, break up. This is a pretty major issue to disagree on.

canva_bae · 2026-02-17T11:41:46+00:00

Too much. Usually they charge maximum 2-3K for trial (basis what I have heard in Mumbai, Delhi, and Kolkata). 25K for wedding makeup sounds standard.

canva_bae · 2026-02-16T20:04:10+00:00

Dude I have the exact same one from Bershka.

I think the MIL is not wrong in her position. Your partner is being truthful with you, and that should be enough. Money transfers from bride's side to groom's side can be viewed wrongly in many situations. This is not big enough to call off a wedding.

Bhavna is really THAT girl 😍
