Re: what are the factors that would lead you to end a relationship
not to go off topic but I don't understand the concept of polygamy in Islam. Even though I consider myself muslim, I don't believe in it at all .. doesn't make sense how can you romantically love more than one person? I wonder if denouncing some aspect of Islam like this would still make me muslim
In order for a man to marry a 2nd wife he needs permission from his first wife, if permission isn't present the relations of the man and 2nd wife is seen as cheating. So i don't think its all that bad personally, because if you don't agree with it then it can't happen, The main reason is because in the past some women couldn't bear children so this was a way to get around this issue.

Well..what are the factors?... I would say when both partners no longer can respect each other. Making a mountain out of mole, and have extreme anger hence leading to any kind of verbal, emotional or physical abuse.

Um no, he doesn't!
Yes he does, if the woman puts it in the marriage contract which many do. They also need a valid reason for re-marrying as well if the woman has not put it in the marriage contract.

Yes, but it's not islamic as you put it. The Islamic way doesn't require permission. They don't need a valid reason either. You can put anything in a contract but then it's just what it is, a contract.

If the man is a good muslim he should try his best not to harm his wife as he loves and respects her ;therefore personally i don't believe its just a contract which is preventing a man taking another wife but many other factors as well. Personally im not against men marrying up to 4 wives, but i have seen situations where it has worked which is probably why.

The situation might depend on the circumstances. If I didn't have children, then maybe less would be tolerable like infidelity or abuse, lack of extreme respect from him or family members if I didn't have any support. If children were in the picture then maybe most of that would have to be dealt/put up with depending on what kind of parent he was but I think I would still draw the line at physical abuse.
I saw someone go through a divorce because of physical abuse among other things and nothing seemed to break her except the abuse. And I don't mean like just a beating here and there, this person would of killed of her one day had she stayed. I think speaking from seeing someone in this kind of scenario, hope to god no person has to go through and nothing seems as bad as that, even cheating I guess.
Re: what are the factors that would lead you to end a relationship
In a conversation with my husband about polygamy my hubby was just brushing it off as no big deal and that it happens, it's somewhat common and allowed in Islam so no big deal. And I was like just because it's allowed in Islam doesn't make it easy for the woman. Whatever the husband would feel if there was another guy involved (if there was such a thing as Polyandry allowed) then that's what the wife would feel. Women are not some alien being that it would be absorbed some other way. We were watching some drama btw and the wife and the rest of the family were making it a big deal, refusing to accept it etc. So then I asked him what he would feel of his dad got married again, would it not change the family dynamics, would he not feel hurt for his mom, would he not feel that his dad would not give them the time and money that he once afforded. Yeh so that was a full stop for him, he stopped talking after that, and only when he put his mom in that spot could be feel empathy for the family and the wife in that drama. He still is of the general idea that its ok (cus he knows it's so common in the middle east, where he's grown up), but he doesn't go on about it now.

That is according to only Pakistan's law, it's not part of Islam and other Islamic countries's laws.

Re: what are the factors that would lead you to end a relationship
Arab women come from mars.
not only arabs, many Mormons also practice polygamy.
in some part of the world, polyandry (1 woman marrying multiple men) has also been practiced. Those men in such polyandrous marriage were not from Mars either..
