Girl I know how you feel. My husband calls once in awhile, but doesn't say much.. just strings me along. Oh yes I still have feelings for him too, but I have no choice for now. They want what they want. Two women to string along. It is soooo hard but have to stay strong. And yes they still do arranged marriages. My husband's brother just got married 3 yrs ago .. he was 33 and his cousin , whom he married was 16. ewww. He said she was too young but his mother is very adamant about them marrying cousins . young cousins to have more muslims i guess. My husband's sisters didnt even have beds. I thought this strange since all the boys had beds hmmm. Not until after marriage did they sleep on a bed ..weird huh? Constantly waiting on everyone without hardly a minute rest. It was sad to me. That is what my husband did to me even if i was sick . its what they are like. You just have to act like u dont care , just talk like u are just a friend that is all, or he will break your heart again. think of being a slave to a man .. that is what you would be if you were with him and married to him. take care xo
