3 Ways to Bond With Your Sister-In-Law

When your brother gets married, it is a time to rejoice because not only is your brother getting the love of his life, you are getting a sister! How wonderful is it that you can now have a brand new sister to bond with, a sister to take advice from, a sister to go shopping with and a sister to get to know? Take this opportunity to make her feel more welcome and comfortable in the family. Becoming a part of a whole new family is hard, so make the process as easy as you can and bond with your new sister along the way. Here are some important tips on how you can strengthen your bond with your bhabhi.

• Talk to her – The simplest thing you can do, is strike up conversions. Being in a whole new environment, it is natural that she will feel reserved. Make her feel comfortable and safe by talking to her and being there for her when she needs you.

• Tell stories – Being a new member of the family, you can take up the role to convey all the funny stories and facts about your family, so that she can feel involved and equally a part of it.

• Get to know her – Instead of being a sister-in-law, try to be just her sister. It is more fun that way anyways. Get to know her personality, her likes and dislikes and open up about yourself as well. This is how you can form a solid friendship with your bhabhi.

• Involve her on Rakhi – Rakhi is a special day for siblings. Alongside preparing a rakhi thali for your brother, make sure you prepare a lumba rakhi for bhabhi to let her know how much she means to you! A lumba rakhi for bhabhi is a beautiful symbolic gesture for the growing sisterhood you have with her.

• Go shopping – Going shopping with her and spending quality time will surely strengthen the sisterly relationship between you both.
