my husbands ex wife did that. she never used to let him look at a girl on TV, never mind girl in life. Then she would fall to his feet asking for forgiveness, whilst sobbing and sometimes she got a knife out on him, threatening to kill him. Those people watch too many bollywood movies.
One might be more possessive than the other but I guess I havent really encountered it too much. I barely ever speak to the husbands aside from simple formalities like "salaam" or "how are you". Unless its my BILs or my best friends' husbands, I stay away.
Yeah my poor sweetheart was duped into marrying this girl when he was 16 years old. They didnt really get married, i.e they didnt have rukhsati - they had Nikah only. Wedding was going to be later on, until he married me instead and got rid of her :)
omg are youy serious. psycho wife.
hey didn't you say your husband is like 20 years old. this is his 2nd marriagge in such a young age. woah.
it's the pakistani culture and mind frame to blame .. not teh women!! In Paistan, actually in pakistanis no matter where they live their minds are set that a man and a woman cant be "just friends" .. there always has to be something disgusting going on behind the curtains!

There actually is a sub-group I think in Desi culture of overly possessive gals...the ones who would not even consider marrying a non-virgin guy or even a guy who has had a past relationship. Ive met one or two of those...and they seem almost obsessed about the whole thing. The type that wants her guy to look at her and her alone, dont you dare notice or care if you see a beautiful woman, wants constant attention and affection etc etc.
Not the majority for sure...but they're out there. Not as much in western culture because its almost a given here that both guys and gals have had a relationship before.
look at u becoming a mod on a Pakistani forum, mashAllah. :)
btw, do u speak urdu seeing as how ur married to a Pakistani?
a) fidelity is essential or there is no need to pretend marrying one person for life.
b) married men ought not to be so dispensible to other women. maybe integrity/ self esteem issues?
NO spouse should ever feel jealous or insecure , but both spouses must do their part in ENSURING that there is not a slight chance of being held under suspicion/s of faithlessness.
possessive has its degrees and motives.
so that should be understood, first.

umm.... maybe you can elaborate a bit more..... what you mean by Nikah only? Nikkah is marriage......
