To Tiffany

Hello Tiffany, I've been married to an Arab man for 2 years now, so when is this horrible treatment suppose to start? I understand the advice you were giving american girl but why lump all Arab men into the same basket? just because you have had a bad experience doesnt mean we all have.

I have a wonderful relationship with my mother in law. she loves me like I was her own daughter. I also get along wonderfully with my brothers in law and their wives. NOT ALL ARAB FAMILIES ARE THE SAME. How many women on here have been married or had a relationship with american men and have had the same experiences with the in laws. some mothers are like that where they think no woman will be good enough for their sons.

Also what kind of a relationship can someone have if when the only thing they were looking for to start with was for them (the woman) was to be taken care of so she wouldnt have to go out and work. Now who was making the mistake, the woman or the man she was wanting to take care of her? Just something maybe you should think about. Kathy
