I have known my husband now for 13 years, we met in Hurghada through a mutual friend. I am american he is egyptian... i left and went back to usa and we kept in contact thru the years.. on and off... he married i married etc etc.. we wanted to be together but somethings were just out of our hands. things changed for both of us and we are now married... but since i have been here (few months) from time i arrived to the time i choose to revert to islam to the time we were "offically" married he seems to have changed...Controling me , I am not allowed to leave flat with out him, I can not talk to any guys on net unless i know them from real life, i was told that if we go to states no guys except family are allowed to hug me only hand shakes, i must obey and he says he is joking but actions speak louder than words, Talking back not an option it only makes things worse expressing how i feel just pisses him off more, He dont like to be asked a lot of questions etc, Told me I must be submissive NO means NO, refusing sex I have found is a big mistake, Tells me what to wear outside as if I am a child. Tells me I am free and can leave anytime but then when i say i want to leave he says NO. I say I can go anytime he says I need his permission to leave. I say NO i am american i will go if i choose to go he told me he would know if i left and he would come for me before i even made it to the airport. I said u got ppl watching me? He I have my ways.. i feel like I am rat in a cage. Ive known him for 13 years and had NO idea he was a control freak. I got a feeling this will only get worse. Any one else experience this or similar?
