You guys can say what you want but is it right to be deprived of attention all the time?

Divorce is not an option for me…I have young children. I do care about their upbringing - much more than myself. However, what is to become of a woman who has no one to talk to? No one for support, communication, to ask her how she is doing after a long day with the kids, etc?

Is it fair? I know its haram…I know its wrong…but Im not allowed to have four husbands so what else can I do?

You all are so quick to tell me what I am thinking is wrong but is it so wrong to want someone to just talk to?

He doesnt talk to me…he goes to work and then hangs out with his friends all evening. Or whatever he does…the point is Im not there in his mind as even a consideration when he is planning the rest of his day or weekend.

Tell him that if he can’t be a companion, you will find it somewhere else. He either wont be ok with it, or opt for divorce. In which case, it is very clear how important your marriage is to him. Get a HUGE alimony and live without this agony.

P.S. There is much better advice in this thread. My point is, let him KNOW that you will do it before doing it. It is not cheating anymore, because then the choices for both of you are very clear.
