Life, it is okay to feel how you feel.Your man is 29years that is PRIME age for them to have freedom & the signs are pointing that he will soon choose a Muslimah for a wife, not you. Listen, I will say it 1 million times, if the man sleeps w/you w/o marriage he will not marry you in Islam. They feel you will/HAVE done it w/another. It is a test.

Anyway, I sooo understand that warm cozy feeling having someone around to do the everyday things...and yes the sex can be fantastic! Let him out of your heart less you desire to be his "second" woman. If you have no problem w/that then you will have some sense of happiness. In other words allow him to be married ...he will return to you after about 3-6 months after the marriage. Believe me, he will feel MORE manly providing for 2 homes. Keep writing your posts so that we can help you. I am curious how you found this site??

Why were you seeking this forumn? In my search engine I simply typed: I feel my Muslim husband married me for green card , what should I do?? And I landed here...so glad I did.
