Veteran Pakistani Actress Asma Abbas on Realistic Expectations in Marriage. Renowned Pakistani actress Asma Abbas, celebrated for her powerful performances in hit dramas like Dumpukht, Akbari Asghari, and the recent Mann Jogi, recently shared insightful marriage advice for the younger generation during a podcast appearance.
In her candid discussion, Asma emphasized the importance of setting boundaries and understanding both the strengths and weaknesses of a partner before committing for life. “Make your decisions wisely,” she advised. “How many marriages will you go through if you leave over minor flaws? Appreciate the positive traits of your spouse; the next partner might be worse.”
Asma highlighted the unrealistic nature of expecting perfection in relationships. “Nothing is perfect,” she remarked, pointing out the shifts in communication styles. She encouraged young women to engage in thoughtful discussions with their partners. “In our time, we softened our words. Today, many girls are clever but can be harsh. It’s crucial to talk after you’ve calmed down.”
She also addressed the serious issue of abuse in relationships, urging women to prioritize their safety. “If your husband is abusive, there’s no going back,” she stated, emphasizing the importance of recognizing red flags in a relationship.
