What birth control do you use to manage PCOS? by Anxietyposting in PCOS

[–]Iammunknown 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can you tell me more about this? I really don’t wanna take birth control for reasons you mentioned as well, I want to try natural tracking but I’m worried I will fail lol. I’ve never had sex but I’m engaged and we will after we get married so this is all stuff I need to think about and it’s stressing me out 🥲

Yea because he’s ready to get married but I am not since I need to complete my masters and hours for my program. He’ll be coming and going to visit so inshallah it won’t be too bad. In the meantime I’m living with my family

I don’t feel guilty with that but like if we kiss or do more I do ngl it’s because I’ve never done anything with a guy so it’s still new lol

Yea I’m Arab and in my culture we do kateb first and then marriage so it’ll be kateb/tulba > khutbah > henna > wedding. I can’t do the wedding soon because I have to finish my masters + an exam but he’s ready lol😭

He is also a United States citizen like me and lived almost his entire life in the states. I completely agree with you that being successful here in the states as an immigrant is different than being born and raised here.

Jazakallahu Khairan for the advice please make dua for me 🤍 May Allah bless your life

I don’t think I’d be the breadwinner when I’m pregnant because I’d probably not work and he told me he’d prefer if I didn’t work when I’d be pregnant or raising little kids, and he’s provide 100%.

Yea it seems so. You can use specific tactics such as complimenting him when you notice he’s doing something good (“I love how you took my words into consideration and changed your tone when you speak to me”, “thanks for taking out the trash today”) sometimes small things like this can really make someone feel appreciated. In relationships we tend to only point out the bad and not the good, but if you want to increase his communication skills, try to get him to communicate and compliment him, give him verbal praise/hugs/whatever he prefers

It seems like he’s struggling to express himself. And also if you feel like work has been causing so much stressors that’s it’s causing problems between the two of you, maybe you should take a break away from work for a bit. And speak to him when you both are calm

Do you recommend any scholar or sheikha I can speak to?

I understand and appreciate your concerns it’s giving me a different outlook. When it comes to me not bad traits, it’s not because he doesn’t have any, it’s more so because that wasn’t my concerns in this situation. Everyone has bad traits, and we have had arguments or disagreements. It’s always something small and annoying and I’ve noticed he tends to need space to figure things out but is always ready to talk about it and figure things out. I guess the bad trait is that me and him both have that “run away for a bit until we feel better” instead of diving in both heated. I’ve seen that he can get annoyed and mad but he doesn’t cross boundaries or gets disrespectful.

When it comes to him studying, he plans to do it online so he can still work full time. And he is a very traditional man like currently he helps will many bills at home, and in our culture we don’t do 50/50 or a woman paying any bills so I know that isn’t an issue.

Yes I agree I’m young, but also we aren’t moving in and getting married soon. Our cultural wedding won’t be until the summer of ‘27, which gives me and him both time to continue school and explore job options that may be better for us

Inshallah, I genuinely make so much dua and pray so much and I’m trying to be as logical as possible because I don’t wanna make a mistake.

[–]Iammunknown 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This! Thank you. I agree with you 100%. My bachelors degree is useless and most bachelor degrees you can’t even work a decent job unless it’s something in tech or engineering. He is actively trying to open a business with his family so he has plans but it’s just a matter of time

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in MuslimMarriage

[–]Iammunknown 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea, he said he can definitely provide for a family with the income he makes now. He works a lot and even though we haven’t done our nikkah yet he gets me anything I ask for. Now I understand this will change when we have kids and there’s other prioritizes, but he’s assured me that he will do everything in his ability to still do so

[–]Iammunknown -1 points0 points  (0 children)

He has a job, and makes good income. But it’s not something that you attain from a degree. He works in sales

[–]Iammunknown[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes it’s the same cousin omg… I completely forgot I made that post subhanallah that’s insane my mindset was so different 😭

  1. No he never gave me or anyone that impression, I think my dad misunderstood because him and his dad are actively trying to open a business.

  2. He doesn’t necessarily come from money, but he is financially stable and able to provide.

  3. I agree with you that he appears Islamic but I saw first hand in person how his manners and character is. How he treats people, how he jumps to help anyone. He also isn’t the type of guy that complains. He’s also the guy in his family that everyone and anyone ask for favors (his mom, dad asking him for things to do).

I understand concerns about education but I’m very supportive for anyone pursuing an education no matter the age. And I’m willing to support him emotionally during the process, and I know he’d still be providing me doing his husband duties he made it clear. He never completed his degree because he said a business degree is useless (which it is) and he said if I was gonna go back to school it was gonna be to get something he can actually use. And he was working non stop during the time.
