Stressed


The next time your friend complains, ask him "Well, I can see that you're concerned about your sister and you want to see her settled. MashaAllah she has a nice personality and is educated. So.......what do YOU honestly think might be causing the rishta issues? I know that you're her brother, but you're also a guy......and you are able to see things from a male perspective. Is there anything that you honestly feel is getting in the way of progress?"

And if your friend then says, "Well....uh....my sister is really smart and has a really wonderful personality. But she's a bit on the heavy side and that might be deterring the guys." THEN...........you can use this as a segway/opportunity to give him advice about her weight and how to reduce/manage it.
