Dealing With Derogatory Remarks

in Ladies of Hive16 days ago

I am a happy person who love healthy parties and once I'm in the mood for party, I don't let anything that anyone would say to easily offend me. Whenever I'm in a party, I carry myself with a lot of self respect.

If someone eventually decides to make a negative remarks about me, I would remain calm and act a though I didn't notice. I would focus on enjoying the party to the fullest instead of letting their words affect my mood.

Gossip is often said in one's absence, if it never gets to my notice, then it simply remains a gossip. But if it eventually becomes public, I will still handle it my own way. I naturally overlook people who try to spread negativity around me.

I will act as if I am not the person they are referring to, and in the end, they are the ones that will end up embarrassing themselves. I will remain calm and look so unbothered that people may not even realise that their comments are directed to me.

But after the party, if I feel it is necessary, I can then calmly confront the person about their behaviour. But if not, I might decide to let go after all their nagative remarks did not add or make me feel less of myself.

HOW I IMAGINE MYSELF AS A MOTHER IN-LAW IN THE FUTURE.

I have never truly felt love from my own mother in-law. She tried to control how things were done in my home, insisted that her son always obey her, and even went as far as telling him lies about me and pressuring him to act on them. At one point, she even encouraged him to beat me. But I am grateful for the kind of man God blessed me with, who did not allow those actions to destroy our home.

Because of this painful experiences, I have made a firm decision to be completely different. I want to be a loving, supportive and understanding mother in-law. I will respect their opinions and the homes they are building with my sons. If I ever need anything from my son's, I will go through their wives as a sign of respect for their marriage and their role in the home.

I will treat my daughter in-law like the daughters I never had, showing them love, care, and kindness. I will pamper them and make them feel valued, remembering that they too are someone else's children just like my sons are mine. I want them to feel comfortable enough to talk to me about any challenges in their marriage, and I will always listen and offer guidance without taking sides.

I also believe in giving them space to grow their homes. I will not impose myself by visiting too often, but I will make sure our bond remain strong. My home will always be open to them, and they will feel free to visit anytime they wish. I will show them love in words and actions, even through thoughtful gifts, so that whenever they are with me, they truly feel at home.

Thank you friend, I really appreciate your time, it's just that I choose peace and decide to focus on what truly matters which is my party😄😄.

Acting like you haven't heard a thing and enjoying the party would be a good revenge to whoever is spreading demeaning remarks about you, especially if they intend to attract your attention.😊

I'm sorry to hear about how your mother-in-law overstepped the boundaries, but thank God your husband is a great man. I believe you will be different, and that your future daughters-in-law will feel loved and welcomed into your family. Thank you for sharing your experiences and thoughts. !LADY💖

Thank you so much, I truly appreciate your kind words and understanding. It wasn't easy for me at first, but I thank God for the support from my husband. Your words means a lot to me, and I pray and hope to be a loving, supportive and respectful mother in law to my future daughters inlaw. Thank you again for your encouragement it means a lot to me.❤️❤️❤️

I have never understood why some mothers feel they need to be disrespectful to their son's wives! Unless it's born of jealousy, I suppose, but even then, they're adults-they need to act like one!

I have never seen my DILs as needing my guidance. If they ask, of course I'd help. They are adults and have their own lives and ways to live. thanks for sharing! !LADY

Honestly, I think you're right, sometimes it dose come from jealousy or the need to feel in control. But at the same time, I believe it also comes from mindset and how some people were raised. I'm glad you're different, you're kind to your daughters inlaw and always there to guide them when they need it. That's the kind of example I wish to follow. Thanks for your time.

It's not a good felling being spoken ill of.
Usually it was not serious as the complainant originally made it out to be. Trash talk is just trash talk.
BUT, If it is serious claim such that it may effect the safety of myself or my family, endanger my home and property or deprive me of my income. I will not let it pass.

In as much as I choose my battles carefully and always try to protect my peace, there are level to it. You are absolutely right. It is true that some things are just noise, but when it starts to affect our safety, family, or our means of livelihood, then it can't be ignored. Standing up at this point will be very necessary. Thanks for stopping by.
