How did you meet? What was the dating or courtship like? How did knowing you’d be a second wife rather than a first factor into your decision? When did you meet first wife and how did she factor into your decision, on a personal level?
I met him through my dad. He brought him home to discuss some business related things while hanging out. We got to know each other in the pretty traditional Arab way, we were never alone in private as unrelated man and woman - we chilled as a group or with an accompanying person (we had our time without them around but we weren’t ever alone in private completely). 6 months later he proposed. 6 months later we got married. I didn’t care at the time about the second wife thing. I just wanted to be with him. Didn’t even cross my mind back then. My mindset was we ll cross that bridge once we get there. I met her after we got engaged. She wanted to make sure that I’m not an insufferable person, didn’t take her long to give her permission. I thought she was nice so that was good.
