disappointment in what i believed was a good marriage

I just had a rather unusual thing happen while sitting at a cafe i like to go to in Mamsha in Hurghada. I saw one of my waiters bring a sweet little girl to me who is obviously Egyptian turns out its the owners youngest daughter,he has another one whos around 5 or 6. Curious because i met his Scottish wife a few weeks ago and they seemed so well tuned together,he's at least 25-30 years younger than her but they seemed happy together.

Well its obvious that the owner also has an Egyptian wife,now when they got married i am curious,because the scottish wife i met and like has been married to him over 6 years and been with him for nearly 10 or 11 years. So i asked the waiter about the situation out of curiousity he was of course not to comfortable with answering me,but was honest ,he wondered too about situation,he thinks british wife knows at least now about situation,does this mean the Egyptian one knows about her ,very curious. It seems the one i know probably found out maybe not all that long a time ago,who knows mean to ask her. Might explain why she teaches in C airo and only comes down so often,even though he wants her to come live here,the other wife curiously enough lives near Cairo,

So it makes me question what my own husband is up to and he tells me now he someday wants a large family,he already has one from first marriage who lives in europe with its mother,yes i can see everyone going omg what is this women doing,because we all know i won't be giving him his large family,so yes the writing is probably on the wall already and even i am not that blind that i cannot read it.Men everywherec truly amaze me,but here they take it to a new level.
