When She Called Off the Wedding: Gaslighting, Family Drama & Break up due to Mother in Law
In this episode, we dive into the emotional aftermath of calling off a wedding. He thought it was all just a misunderstanding-his mother convinced him of it. Have you ever fallen in love with a "Mumma’s boy"? Where her word outweighs yours, and no amount of logic can change his mind?
This story unravels the toxic dynamic of gaslighting in Indian families, where parents can manipulate and control, pushing relationships to the edge. She had no energy left to fight for them, but he refused to give up. Does this sound familiar? In many Indian households, family interference plays a huge role in relationships, yet it’s rarely discussed openly.
What happens when the breakup isn’t about you and your partner-but because others have a problem with your relationship? He couldn’t let go and suggested one final attempt to save what was left. Their last getaway led them to a cozy homestay in Khopoli, Maharashtra, run by professional couple counselors. But did it change anything, or was it too late?
Tune in to hear about tough conversations, emotional breakdowns, and whether divine intervention can truly fix what’s broken.
