Why are you being so docile?

Dear Pretty Kitty,

Why are you permitting him to treat you like a prisoner? Don't you have a family or anybody you can turn to for help? I wish I could be there to help you out.

Are you going out to make purchases such as for yourself and home? Who buys your clothes for you?If he does,why not run out to the police station nearby and seek help?If you do go out,why not do the same?

If you could write to us here on this forum,you can surely locate the email of the police or home dept. and ask for immediate help.

It is very difficult to ascertain what he is doing with this Moroccan woman.In any case,a s a Muslim,if he can afford it,he can have 4 wives and innumerable concubines.It's very unfortunate that he has not divorced you if he wants to marry her--which I doubt.If he has a wish to use this triple Talaq( divorce) provision,he will just tell you three times that he is divorcing you.He seems to enjoy keeping you in this relative captivity.

Get out or seek help from the police.Don't waste time and don't argue with him lest he injures you or takes away your clothes to keep you inside the house.Just quietly manage this.

I feel sorry for you( which is not going to help you) and do not wish to frighten you but the few possibilities that I have mentioned have actually happened.

Instead of conjecturing over what is the Moroccan woman doing in your house and your captor's relationship with her,gather courage and act fast.You have suffered more than enough.I wish someone on this forum renders better help.You will still be able to marry someone who will care for you in the real sense of the word.First,resolve this issue.

Best luck,dear one.
