Attitude issues with wife family
5 years ago
Hello, I'm an engineer and married 3 years back and I've a kid. Before marriage my wife acted like humble and quiet. After marriage only I came to know her attitude. Every time she is praising herself and her family only. She is not caring about my family. I have been caring about her because she came from poor family background and felt she is innocent. I'm reluctant about her makeups and showing them in Whatsapp statuses and DPs by taking selfies. When I asked her the same she removes and after a few days she repeats the same. I informed it to in-laws they are claiming that I should have born 40 years back. That is what their attitude. After my marriage I kept her at in-laws house as she wanted to finish her PG as that's the last semester. Once she came to my home we planned for a kid and she conceived. During her pregnancy she spent a couple of months at my home and she weeps night time without any reason. I thought she may need her mom to look after but she didn't go for few months and weeps whole night and I suffered a lot with sleepless nights. On 5th month I sent her to in-laws house as if she continuously cries there will be problem to new born baby. Thereafter she spent 9 months. During this period she behaves like a psycho at her home and without informing me she went to some other town to enjoy with her relatives, and that time my kid was not well for a month because of indigestion due to powdered milk. She didn't care about my child. When I asked why didn't you inform me she said its not required. I shouted her and her mother as they didn't grow in a proper way. Then I brought her to my home with our kid. She haven't been mingling with my bror's & sisters or cousins family members. Even she never mingle with anyone. I didn't take dowry butshe always expects like she came from Ambani's family. I was not able to tolerate and I was about to beat her sometimes. And when my cousins met her, she is degrading me with her words as I never cared about her family and never given money to her. When I asked the same she lies as she didn't tell anything. After asking repeatedly she tried to commit suicide. I feel really bad when some one try to degrade me and committing suicide even there is no reason. She keep on trying to commit, I stopped several times. She is intimidating our family. A few weeks back we invited neighbors and in-laws as it was my kid's birthday function and it went well. On that night after having heavy dinner, she was trying to eat the remaining cake left after distribution. My mother said as it was already late and we had dinner heavily and it is better to have it tomorrow since my wife suffered some vomiting and in digestion in previous days couple of times. My wife shows that as a show stopper to her mom and wanted to go her hometown again and quarreled with us with cheap mentality. All neighbors and myself tried to convince to stop her and her mother to stay calm. I told them to go as their intention is contiuosly shouting at my home. My wife & her family members on birthday night left with my kid at midnight. I don't want to call her again to bring as she made so much shit at my home and even neighbors also said it is their problem and she will come once they realized the value of me. It's been two weeks I didn't call her. But I'm very much bonding with my kid. Even mum and my family members also. I wanted to meet their elder members of the family and other neighbors to show how their behavior is.. What can I do now? I'm in such a desperate situation. Please suggest.

Its better if you settle the matter amicably. Go for a holiday trip and spend some time with your wife and child . All you lack is a good communication between you and your wife. Else take a separate apartment for yourself, your wife and child. Hopefully things will get sorted. If it still doesn't , go for a divorce .
Thanks.

2. Try to speak with your wife in solace and see if it works for your.
3. You both may meet with a marriage counselor who will counsel both of you and see if this works.
4. If your wife does not come home after your requests then you can also file a petition for restitution of conjugal rights in the family court under Section 9 of the Hindu Marriage Act 1955.

I advise you to-
settle the matter amicably involving some close relatives, otherwise, relations can be destroyed, and your KID will be the most sufferer,
from the facts stated by you, it seems she is at fault, approx 75%, but you are also at fault, obviously, less than her, but how to prove the gravity of fault,
what if she moves to police or file a case for domestic violence/maintenance etc.? such litigation can bitter your relationship.
she had attitude, don't you have ATTITUDE?
think and then act....................
family members, relatives, neighbors will hardly remain with you for a few hearings during litigation but you have to face every hearing and later on, you will found yourself alone battling for never-ending litigation.
better to resolve the issue,
though,
if failed,
ask again.
Good Luck
