[QUOTE]Originally posted by of_gold: [QB] No I wouldn't Sobriquet. Your snide remark sounds like a crude sexual comment. We have a similar situation here, it is just called something else. I have been offered this arrangement myself, where he would take care of me financially and see and travel with me when not with his wife. They are not called co wives but mistresses. Maybe the man can love both but he can't love both in the same way. If you consider that a man is allowed to have 4 wives. That would mean that each wife gets approximately one week out of the month to be with her husband, twelve weeks a year. Everyone is an individual and individuals marry for different reasons. It is nobodys business who someone chooses to marry or why. No one can judge another fairly by their own feelings. If this is what a woman chooses for their happiness then I am sure they have their reasons that are different than mine. I am not their judge and do not condem them. What I don't understand is how someone can applaud polygamy on one thread then criticize someone else on another thread who is in love with a married man. A bit hypocritical in my view. I think what bothers me most is not that some make this choice but the callous way that sands has approached it. He does not say that I know this widow that needs a father for her child. His approach is, one down three to go. When in Rome..."Like" I am allowed to keep four dogs in my yard and I only have one. In my view it is a total disrespect for his wife. It also gives the impression that this is the reason or one of the reasons he converted to Islam. Whether this is the reason or not it is the impression that I get. I do not see or feel the love and peace of God through your post. You may not care what I think but if you want someone who does not understand Islam to want to learn more, your presentation of it lacks this and shows Islam in a negitive light. IMHO I want it clear that I am saying this to you sands, not to other Muslims who have shown me the good and loving side of Islam, whom I respect for their conduct. For me love is my sole reason to marry. I do realize that love alone is not enough. I consider whom I marry to be the most important choice I have to make. He will be my other half, not quartered or thirds. I don't even want to live in Tibet where a woman can have more than one husband. My desire is to experience the fullness of the connection with one man. I want him in my bed every night and the things we share special and exclusive. Maybe this sounds silly to some or idealistic, so let it be. I am idealistic. I am a pacifist as well and would like to see peace in the world. I want to see the end of poverty and hunger. I want a world where you love your neighbor, where you help the down trodden. All of these things are idealistic, I know. But nothing can every be gotten without first believing that it is possible to obtain. Peace. [/QB][/QUOTE]
