My ex-sil’s uncle took a second wife for a similar reason to that you mentioned.. it wasn’t a secret though (the guy is very religious but the second wife was the one he wanted all along).. I think it usually is the younger guys doing it and often because their parents have pushed them to marry someone they wouldn’t have chosen..

I don’t think it was all that secret in the case I mentioned either as loads of people attended his “second” wedding. It rather sounds like the only people he kept it secret from are his parents and first wife. The guy isn’t religious or anything of that sort. He simply didn’t want to get married at the time his parents pushed him to (I believe he was only 18/19 at the time) or to the girl in question and only did so to get his parents off his case.

Bizarre that taking a secret wife seems like a better option than saying ‘no’ and twisted that wife 1 from ‘back home’ is left at home looking after his parents whilst he’s sleeping with someone else..

That’s what I’ve never understood either, particularly this gentleman. So, he was man enough to move away and cut ties with his parents and marry someone else, but he wasn’t man enough to say “no” to a marriage he didn’t want in the first place? Bizarre indeed.
