How to be in a good relationship with in-laws in a second marriage in India?

 To be a good daughter is more convenient, but to be a good daughter-in-law is not everyone’s cup of tea. To become one, you need to communicate effectively, love, caring and be respectful towards every relation of your family and still keep your identity alive for you and your partner. It could be not easy if you are into divorced marriage as it is like a rubbed whiteboard, which has some earlier impression. The family already has some image of the previous daughter-in-law, so you need to understand their mentality and maintain your relations.

1. Meet your family needs without adjusting yours: if you want to be in a smooth relationship with every member, open your mind to the possibilities. Do not be possessive if they need time with you or time to pursue a hobby. They would be happier, and they would be grateful to you for your respectful behavior.
2. Start by having a friendship with your spouse: develop unconditional and intimate acceptance. Demonstrate a willingness to be confident and vulnerable that your relationship could withstand conflict. Enjoy sharing your past incidence and your inside jokes. Share the articles or books you know which they would love, or you find it interesting or sit with them in companionable silence. However, you need to concentrate on other family members, so your life is filled with love and laughter; at the end of the day, your partner will be the person you turn to. Aim to be the person with whom your partner has the most fun instead of their family or friends, and you must be the one go-to person in his life, whether he wants to laugh or cry.
3. Maintain your own identity: having your identity will not only make your position in society, but it also helps to build a place in the home. If you are also willing to have a second Shaadi, your contact number could be quickly gained from any matrimonial sites online or offline. Make sure you still have an interesting life and have fun. If your family or partner left tomorrow, you still have some essence left behind. If not, your partner and family will always be working to fill a space they cannot fill and would feel inadequate. If you live your life fully as an individual, it will be easier for you to share the joy with others. If your family thinks that they are the only good thing happening in your life, they need to think twice and never take you for granted. Continue to pursue your hobbies and interests, which were meaningful to you before the relationship, though you may not keep up with all or most of them, you must make time for at least one of them. It gives you the feeling of fullness in your life.
4. Have a family dinner or lunch time: having meals together may give a huge opportunity to exchange your thoughts. Put up your point, know each other’s likes and dislikes well.
