First of all, thanks Hisham, this is the best advice I've received in a long time

I also think that he is a liar... he even lied and said that he used to have blond hair and blue eyes, even though he is dark-skinned. If he can lie about small things like that, what else can he lie about? He treats women like they are objects to be used for different things. And yes, Hisham, most people have told me that 3-4 years is a long time for army service.

I will stop talking to him. It's true, I can threaten him. In fact, I'm glad that he told me all this information and nasty words, because next time I go to Egypt I will bring my father and he can deal with him face to face - hahaha. The sad thing is, the wife that he calls a "cow" has made him rich by all means. This is a warning to women who pamper their husbands.

I thought exactly the same things as what you said, that he is redirecting my feelings and trying to stop my hope for the boy... but at one point I thought, no, how could anyone be so hateful? But sometimes you just have to see the darker sides of people. If anything, I pity his son having a father like that as an example.

Luckily, I'm not so easily led, and I don't fall for his lies, but the scary thing is that other, more vulnerable women, will. He needs to be stopped, simply.

Thanks a lot, Hisham. I will take things slowly with the boy. I have faith that everything will work out, I just have to get past the snakes first.

Stay blessed
