ParticipantHey,,
Im writing my problem and my hands are shaking soo har, and my eyes are full of tears….
ive been married to my lovely husband, 2 years now, it was an arranged marriage
I wasn’t really liking the idea, of an arranged marriage, because I had someone in my life for 12 years, that I wanted to share my life with, but things didn’t turn out well between us, and our families, so we just ended it right 4 months before i got engaged to my husband..
so anyways, our honeymoon wasn’t like i was expecting and as I wished, and from what I was hearing from other arranged marriages
there were coldness in our relationship, he didnt like cuddling, and hugging or kissing much
he’d go straight to the point (sex)… I was crying in my honeymoon at night.. and txt my sisters that I don’t want to go on with this..
after that, he would travel alot due to his work, so we barley lived together.. I tried so hard, to show him love as much as i can and switch my love from my past love story to a new one.,, to him..
I did everything, romantic nights, sexy clothes, different new looks… i dont think it moved him much, even though ‘generaly’ he was a great guy at home, friendship…etc
after i gave him ‘the shock’ that I wanted to divorce because I dont feel like a married woman, I don’t feel wanted and special, he actually cried, and changed alot, and told me to give him another chance, and I did…
he started to show more love and use love words, and call or txt more (when he’s traveling), even though sex wasn’t ‘that’ good.. we’d do it once a week? or sometimes twice, which is kinda weird for new couples? am i wrong?
so anyways, we moved to a foreign country due to his work, and we it was the first time we ‘actually’ lived together…. it was nice, until I found a USB with gay porn videos!! I was in shock!! and i talked to him and told him… are you GAY???? because if you are, that explains ALOT!!!
I was shivering and shaking… i didn’t look good, but by his face expression he looked like he didn’t want to hurt me at all…
he told me it was his friends USB… (which I checked it was lasted viewed 2 weeks ago) which doesn’t make sense, but I believed him…
things were great after that. he love me, i love him.. nothing culd be more perfect..
8 months later (few days ago) .. I got access to his laptop , and saw other gay porn vedios again!!!! it discusses me.. it makes me cry so bad.. and make me hurt and regret lots of things in my life..
i asked him again, and told him, you cant lie to me this time… what the story behind that?
are you gay? are you bstraight? or bboth? do you have a problem? you can tell me ? and we can fic this together?
he couldnt dare to lie again.. and he admitted he watches those, but it is only for the sake of curiosity…pfft!!!
he told me that he watches ‘normal porn’ as well … but i didn’t see that in his laptop..
even though he acts so manly, he loves football, he looks normal.. yet his coldness makes sense sometimes,
after the confession, I forgave him again ( I know I shouldn’t maybe?), we had an amazing passionate love making, which haven’t happen before..
now every time I see him, I cant help to think that he might be gay?
Im soo confused now, even though he promised not to do that again, Im so scared, of being a fool.. he’s a great husband, with great personality, very kind, understanding, and every girl would love to have a husband like him (other than the sex life)
maybe he’s using me to hide who he really is..
or maybe he’s confused as well.. and needs help… but he’s not talking to me..
I love this man, and I would do anything to fix this, but at the same time im just soo disgusted right now, and I cant help it but to think of him being gay everytime I see him
Im so confused I don’t know what to do…
I can’t trust him like I used to, I don’t know whether to get jealous / concerned about women or men in his life…
We were planning on to have a baby together, now that I think of it maybe he’s doing that to ‘prove’ that he’s a MAN!!… which in other words .. using me to prove that….
We come from very strict family yet open minded, strict in reputation I mean, we are very well known, and being gay in our culture is a bad thing.. (Im from Dubai)
That’s why I looked up into foreign forums, websites, because they might understand this issue more, and handle it more clearly, than we do
I know its bad , but I always look into his phone , and I noticed some random weird massages I didn’t understand the whole conversation in the text messages (because it gets deleted), but he was a guy, living abroad (a country that my husband tend to visit for ‘vacation’ between now and then.. and the txts were a bit weird for straight guys… they were more intimate I can say..
Im not sure if that’s his secret ‘boyfriend’ or not… I hope not.. he is still contacting him as far as I know…. Even after our fight..
Im so scared.. and vulnerable at the moment, cause I live alone abroad with him, and got no one to talk to, because that’s a HUGE problem for me, and I don’t want my close friends or parents to have that idea about my husband… because I love him.. and I don’t want anyone to hurt him, even by a thought..
What should I do..PS. I am acting totally normal in my relationship with him right now… but I can’t get this out of my mind…

KeymasterIt sounds like there are several things going on at once: First of all it sounds like you are still getting to know your husband and you may be mourning the 12 year relationship you gave up to accept an arranged marriage. It’s normal to try and make the arranged marriage just like the 12 year relationship, but it’s also a losing proposition. You have to be more open to who this man is and what this particular marriage is going to be like and try not to compare it to your last relationship.
Second of all, having sex once or twice a week is not abnormal. It falls within the range of normal. You sound disappointed about the difference between your sex drive and the actual sex you’re having is bound to make you feel down. See if you can talk to your husband about having more sex without actually accusing him of doing anything wrong. Men want to be successful and if he feels like he’s failing you, he may back off instead of coming on to you.
Third, the gay porn is not typically something straight men watch, especially if he has no other type of porn and this is the only type of porn he’s interested in. It’s important to talk to your husband about what is upsetting you and to ask him about this vacation buddy he has, and if the buddy is a lover as well as a friend.
Because you want to stay in the marriage if he’s not gay, it’s important that you are clear whether or not he is. I know you want an instant answer, but one of the downsides of arranged marriage is that you don’t really know the man until you marry him and that’s when you BEGIN to get to know him. So don’t get pregnant until you know if he’s a man who is committed to a heterosexual marriage, and if he’s not, then you have to be brave in your choices.
I hope that helps. Let me know how it goes — and please follow me @AskAprilcom on Twitter and on Facebook at this link:
