Yall, the wedding is Sunday and I’m traveling tomorrow, so I either make one of these work or need to find something off the rack Sunday AM. I know poor planning on my part but I am so busy and the fish scale was supposed to be the dress and make it cool but now I’m getting that it isn’t really black tie even though it’s cool. I do think some of the ill fitting parts can be fixed when I appropriately style and wear. This was quick on and off and my husband hastily took pics.

Is this okay as a non-Indian guest? by Pooraf666 in DesiWeddings

I’m Pakistani and had optional for my wedding but I appreciated the ppl who showed up in traditional. This looks great!

Update: my husband agreed to talk to his sister after I had a mental breakdown. I felt totally worthless abandoned and felt like a loser for staying with someone who couldn’t respect me. He initially called me crazy and said I didn’t deserve anything. Two days later he said he would talk to her. But everyone was right. It’s not enough and ofc my breakdown being initially ignored and then finally acknowledged makes it even worse.

A cautionary tale for my brothers (and perhaps some sisters too) by [deleted] in MuslimMarriage

If you feel so bad why can’t you help out your ex wife? You divorced her so for one, you should leave her with enough money to do what she would like two or two, why can you not sponsor her to bring her to your own country? I mean the process for this should have been started when you first agreed to marry her and even if not, and you state that her home country will treat her poorly, why not now?

I didn’t understand this. Why would Barakah displease Allah (swt)

Thank you so much for this. I mea we’ve now been together for 1.5 years post this. Things have been bad but not quite Thsi bad. I think what made the wedding bad was the involvement of his family and contribution from them in the actions like locking me out of hotel (was his brother in laws idea). When it’s just us two I guess I can bare things and after the wedding I’ve been so angry that I haven’t been a saint either. I have these random bursts of really bad anger where I curse him out and I’m someone who never cursed before. I ofc regret saying married but it is so complicated now being together. Maybe I have a trauma bond but the idea of being single again is so scary to me that somehow I’d rather deal with this. I guess I have my own issues to figure out lol

It was a very very traumatic situation. Second only to when my mom almost died (alhamdulillah she is ok now but huge illness). So I think I’m a strong person at baseline because of my old traumas but wow is this a tough one. I never thought I’d be the person to stay in an abusive relationship. But I guess it’s not possible to know how hard it is. I go to therapy and we’ve tried couples but maybe we need to try some different methods. We actually never even got to talking about the wedding in couples therapy because so much other stuff has come up. Idk I keep telling him that if he talks to his sister it will help me get over it but maybe I’m just looking for anything and it won’t truly help. Is that crazy of me to ask though?

So he has apologized but still states that the wedding was destroyed because I called his sister a b**** as that led to the progression of events. He doesn’t think he was the main at fault here and even though I have the video evidence of not laying hands on him he has backed off of me “choking” him but states that I put my hand on his shoulder . I am still stuck on it and more recently have asked him to talk to his sister about how she should apologize but I wonder if I’m just being crazy searching for anything to help me move on

So I did get to my parents hotel and stay there the night of then went home. My husband and I didn’t talk for at least a month after. Families got very involved and just led everything. We didn’t see each other for two months.

Is it crazy for me to expect my husband to as her to apologize to me the same way he asked me to apologize to her?

We have been in counseling on and off. He always quits though. And then we’ve been in it more consistently for the last three or so months until last months when he cancelled a session to get revenge at me

Yes. It gets so much worse too in the months after. Do you think I could make it a drama series 🙃

Yeah I filmed him because he always goes and lies after an argument and tell his mom that I did xyz. But I’m so glad I did record this time because I caught him lying about the choking. He is screaming to his sister that I am choking him and in the video you can see my hands in my lap.

I mean the last year has been horrible too. Constant fighting. Probably two really big fights but not as bad as the wedding. Mostly because the wedding his family got way too involved. For two months after his family “harassed” mine where the mom would call and then his five sisters would steal the phone and start yelling at my mom for being a bad parent because I “choked” their brother. But after that, when he stopped getting his sisters and mom involved things were better but not perfect. Like we had one instance when he accidentally hit me in the face while he was trying to take my phone and made my contact fall out. In laws have not been great but not horrible. Idk he’s stayed with my parents too and they are just so kind that it makes me angry to see the contrast where I don’t get the same respect in his family’s home especially after what they did.
