GuestDear urooz:
I don’t understand: he wants you to end your marriage and marry him and he plans on marrying another woman, his parents’ choice?

Participantyes that is what he wants. He thinks marrying another woman will keep his parents off his back. He is under pressure because his parents are forcing him to marry.

GuestDear urooz:
But how does he plan on marrying you if he also plans to marry another woman? Is he planning on marrying two women?

Participantits possible in our culture. A guy can marry more than one women. He wants to keep ours secret (buy me house etc) while the other marriage is just to fulfill social demands. I know its difficult to understand but my problem is i cant find myself leaving him. How can i be so closely attached to him?
Any discussion about that matter with him ends up with me feeling guilty and wrong. he makes me feel bad about saying no to his plans.

GuestDear urooz:
You wrote that this man responded indifferently when you told him that your parents were arranging a marriage for you. It may be that he started pressuring you to divorce your husband and marry him secretly only after his parents were pressuring him to marry another woman.
He may be angry at his parents, not wanting to be completely obedient to them, so he found… a sort of a solution: marry her publically and rebel against his parents secretly, by marrying you.
If so, then he is quite selfish, seeking his solution at your expense, blaming you and encouraging you to feel guilty so that you give in to his solution.
What do you think?

ParticipantExactly!! I think the same but i am afraid i may give up.
He keeps reassuring me that he will be all mine. He will not make any kind of relationship to the other woman but its just he wants his mother to be happy and i have to stand with him in this. Then i ask why ruin some other girls life when you don’t want to have any relationship with her? He says you don’t have to worry about that because that’s my problem. You just build a wall and don’t think about my other marriage and family…. Is that possible? Can a women just close her eyes and say that nothing exists. On telling him that its not possible foe me to just build a wall and pretend that things are fine… he says you are just ungrateful, i say i will be all yours and things will be all the way you want. Anyways i don’t trust him but i just don’t know how to let go.
I know he is selfish, just thinking about himself. But how do i make him understand, the discussion never ends well.

GuestDear urooz:
I think that it is not possible for you to make him understand because, it is my understanding, that his only interest is that you do your part in his plan. He is not interested in understanding what you feel and think.
He is only interested that you do your part in his plan and is using guilt to pressure you.
The fact that he is not interested in your thoughts and feelings means that it makes no sense to marry him if he was single and if you were single. To cooperate with his plan, to marry him as his second wife, in secret makes even less sense, in other words, no sense at all.
Better have no contact with him. Can you do that?

ParticipantI want to do that but i can’t.
His plans do not make sense at all. I blame him too. I blame him for showing up after my marriage when i was trying to move on. I fell for him again (which is my fault… i know) but i consider him responsible. But when i blame him, he is enraged.
I want to leave him, i just don’t know how. He made my life miserable and he has the solution for it that is to make me even more miserable.
The reason i came here and asked for your opinion/advice is i can not talk to anyone else about this. I am thankful to you for taking your time and talking about it with me. I feel like i had an opportunity to move on when i got married but its like i lost it for him. I can not be with him and i can not be happy anymore. He is going to marry eventually but why did he have to snatch my happiness? I feel guilty all the time and thinking of ways to make myself happy and forget about him. But everything seems so impossible. I resent him but i don’t wanna spend my life resenting him. I just want to be happy without even thinking about him.

GuestDear urooz:
I agree with you: “he has the solution for it that is to make me even more miserable.”
As bad as you think things are now, him pressuring you, and so forth, it can get worse. So your choice now is between feeling as badly as you feel now and feeling worse later, and for a long, long time.
Bad- or worse?

ParticipantHi Urooz,
You will need to get strong for yourself, cut all contact with this guy, lose your cell phone if you can, take a holiday and go somewhere if you can and kill this time – you will eventually be able to move on and who knows he may have another back-up plan too.
in all this, if your husband finds out about him, then you may probably end up in s farworse situatin.
take a strong step, leave him, he is not worth it.

Participant– he had a relationship with you and did not marry you when you proposed
– he is now marrying another girl with prior planning of cheating on her
– and now he wants to marry you and keep you as a hidden wife
– seriously what kind of husband can this man become?
– do you trust his promises?
– and today, you have a marriage where you have a husband who has openly accepted as you wife – a respectful marriage exchanged for a hidden marriage, does not make sense to me.
– can you guarantee he will not have a third hidden wife or will not divorce you if he falls in love with the first wife?

ParticipantDear K,
you are right. I keep beating myself up for being a terrible person. I can guarantee anything. I am wrong and i admit that but he is is wrong too and never admits that. I take the responsibility for messing up my life and someone else’s life but he never does. All he thinks is, he is an amazing lover being able to love me even after i got married. But as Anita pointed out, its true he does not concern himself with anyone’s feelings be it mine, my husbands or the girl he may marry (and i am pretty sure if he marries someone, he is going to fall in love which scares me considering his disregard towards my feelings). He only thinks of himself, otherwise a true lover would have let me go rather than creating a confusing situation after i got married. Someone else’s life does not matter to him i guess.
He once had a facebook account that i did not know of, when i found about it i confronted him. He could not take it and made me feel bad as according to him my confrontation humiliated him. He did not have any affair but the secrets and mysteries in relationship disturbs me (it makes me paranoid…may be i am the only case according to him). He then blocked me on that facebook account thinking that it disturbs me so i better not be able to see it. These kind of things made me not trust him anymore with future or anything. That Facebook thing is still a huge thing for me but he considers himself innocent and still blames me for giving him a hard time over nothing.
So yeah love is a good thing but loving in a bad way is definitely a bad thing. In my marriage, there is no love but there is care and respect which my so called love can never provide me.
