To Carrie

Carrie. Please don't despair. Your life will be so much better off not married to this person. If he comes back, please run, run, run.

I had a short marriage of 2 years. My husband left me as soon as he re-established ties with his relatives. We have a young child together. He is fighting me for custody, and really only so that he can be raised as a muslim. Of course, you can't say this in the courts, because we live in a democratic society, and it's not politically correct. The religion is NOT a peaceful one. And the only reason men treat women like this is because they CAN through their religion.

Be very glad that God has given you a way out. I wish my husband would have left me after 10 months. It's an absolute nightmare. Take care.
