Hey, I understand interference from family is an issue faced by a lot of couples in India due to our age-old cultural practices. Sometimes, the family doesn’t approve of the relationship and they choose to show it this way or sometimes it’s just an insecurity of letting another person into their loved one's life. We shall not judge where your boyfriend’s sister is coming from but letting it affect your 7-year-old relationship isn’t an option either. Here are a few steps you can follow to make things work again. Communicating with your partner- This is a relationship issue and needs a united front to tackle the situation. Couples tend to forget that issues and problems are to their relationship and it takes two to settle it down. Both the partners need to communicate what they think about the situation, what they find problematic, and what can be the possible solutions that suit both of their requirements. Fights are healthy- Every relationship goes through disagreements, arguments, and fights, it’s not just related to romantic relationships. They’re healthy till the time they get resolved. It can be either some kind of peaceful solution or maybe a compromise from either one of the partners. Always remember your relationship, bonding and chemistry are bigger than these fights, everything can be resolved. You might have to adjust with your expectations, like spending quality time together and not looking at the quantity or any other requirement you decide on that needs you to adjust your attitude. Setting boundaries- Often in the initial stages of our relationship we forget to set boundaries and this continues for a long time but only with your partner, this can work as you can gradually set them up. Setting boundaries with their family is equally important and this should be done during the initial stage of meeting them. You don’t have to be close to everyone your partner is close with but having a cordial and healthy relationship is required. If there is any sort of confrontation required with your boyfriend’s sister, let him take the lead. After all, it’s their relationship and nobody can understand it better than them. Even after all this, if you cannot make peace with it, you might want to seek professional help. Hope this helps you. Thanks for reaching out and for any further queries feel free to contact me. Take care.

You need to improve your perception and decision making skills.

You should go for a family counselling alongwith your partner and discuss the issues. Without hearing both sides of the story, its difficult to comment upon the issue.

Thank you for sharing your story. It seems like there is a communication gap in this relationship and some issues with maintaining boundaries. Try communicating how you feel assertively without being passive or aggressive. Establish boundaries regarding how much quality time you need with your boyfriend.

Hello.. First of all you try to ask yourself whether he values your family or not in the same way he values his family. Sometimes, giving space in a relationship is very important. Still you should try to have a discussion where you can put your point of view though I understand that you would have already done that but this time with a calm head and an empathetic attitude as he might be pressured by his family only. In case it is affecting your mental well being ,you may contact a psychologist as it can help you feel better.
