The very first day was after I landed in Manama, Bahrain. "WOW, I thought...at the time, they are welcoming me....
I spend 3 months in Bahrain. I was waiting for the visa to enter Saudi Arabia. BUT.......I had to GO back home. I was like? WHAT? why? it was a hard decision to do. Leaving my husband for a month or so.
Its funny when you left, they missed you but when you came back, they wanted you to leave again. That's what happened to me when I went back in 1999. I missed my husband when I went back. I did it again in 2003, the last time I went home to see my mom and brother.....that's
As years went by, lesser and lesser, seeing the "family" They were HAPPY to see me but now they can care less about us, meaning ME, because I am a outsider, and they dont want that. So, I gave my husband a choice, its either, I leave taking my daughter at the time, OR we divorced. It was getting to the point, they were talking bad about ME at the time. and I know they are still, so they
like it or not, I am here to stay....lol
The ONLY person who really accepted me was his father. Sadly, he past away.

this post is starting to scare me. my boyfriend is saudi and we've known each other for ages. we really want to get married someday which leaves me worrying about cultural and religious differences. i have lived in saudi my whole life, but the thought of meeting his family freaks me out. i just hope everything turns out well in the future. lol. :)
