Insecure Wives…

As a woman, I wonder why would any wife feel insecure when her husband is around other women?! Maybe it’s just that I am unfamiliar with the “wife” feeling yet. Still, I can not see myself doing those silly things most women are doing nowadays.

Remember this story?

Few days later, I was out and ran into the husband. He made eye contact and stopped by to say hello. I thought, was it OK for him to do so because his insecure wife was not around?

Yesterday, I was out with a friend at The Avenues and once again ran into them. The minute she spotted me; she instantly grabbed his arm. Again, it felt like she is sending a clear message; “HE IS MINE, MINE!! MINE”.

Seriously? Are those women serious? A friend says maybe women do those things to make us, poor single women, jealous. Maybe she is right; but still to me, it shows some insecurity.

After thinking about it for a bit, I realized that if it was me. I would probably love for my husband to go and say hi to her. After all, I’d like if it happens infront of me rathar than behind my back. I’ve always been a girl who loves to meet the girls in her man’s life.

I wonder if after getting married, I will be changed into one of them.

    Maybe she just likes holding her husband’s arms..at the end of the day, it’s her husband.

    “A friend says maybe women do those things to make us, poor single women, jealous” That could not be true, It is simple women love their husbands, at least most of them do, they have some jealousy. Thats only normal. The women did not do anything wrong in that story, she did not make a scene, she just hold her husband, which is also a normal thing to do. The husband in the other hand, has to either tell her; that these are my friends and I have to say hi, or accept his wife’s wishes and not say hello even when she is not around! In summary, it is the husbands fault!

    It’s chicken of him to say hello when his wife is not around and pretend he doesn’t see you when he’s with her, if I were you I’d do the same thing, ignore him

    You seem to have a lot of drama and resolved issues with this girl/wife/arm-holder :)

    I know what you’re going through. It is just unacceptable in our culture for members of the opposite sex to communicate. What you should do is just smile when you see him without his wife and try to pass by quickly so as to prevent him from having the chance to say hi.

    And when you see them together you should just smile to them collectively when you see them but you should greet his wife as if she was your best friend but keep it snappy. But if she’s obnoxious then you should avoid them all together.

    “I am unfamiliar with the “wife” feeling yet”

    evidently u would die alone as no one is interested in a serious relationship with u. guys could have u for days and the a friend says why to buy a cow if u get the milk for free?

    Something tells me you are one smart and very cool girl.

    It may not just be personal insecurity that is the issue here for the wife. It may be insecurity with the relationship or the marriage itself. And believe me, it probably ain’t just you she is like this with.

    I say this often enough in my real life, so I might as well say it again here: marriage is only the start of the toughest look at yourself you will ever have to take. Marriage isnt a destination, it is only the beginning of the most complicated thing you may ever TRY to do. The marriage you choose for yourself and make is a reflection of what you think of yourself as a person.

    You may fail at it, you may succeed. But that in a nutshell, is what it is for me.

    To me i think there several reasons:

    1. She thinks that she is not attractive.
    2. I think she doesn’t want her husband to even eye contact another women.

    or

    If it only happens when you meet by coincidence she saw her husband treating you a bit deferent.

    there are other reasons but it always depends on a specific thing that triggers these events to happen.

    aah sometimes i wish if i can stand up to those women and give them a look of “uuuuh why on earth i want to be with him” or something..
    i think those women are shame to stupidity .. they are CRAZY!
    and the worst when they give you that saying “9adegatny o khathat rayle.. or what ever that saying is”

    as a “wife” I don’t really care if he talks to her in front of me or behind my back, coz I know my man & i trust him, otherwise i wouldn’t marry him

    so yes .. i totally agree with you .. it is insecurity

    & I bet you’re much prettier, so forgive her :)

    So if a guy cares for his wife’s wishes and avoids annoying her in any way is considered a coward?

    The arm grabbing a normal reaction and no conspiracy about it, it is if the look on her face says so and her eyes speak “He is mine”.

    Hmmm i dont know the extent of your past relation with the guy but he obviously still has a thing for you or why else would he want to come an say hi even with his wife? Even though he ended with his wife in the end she might feel inah when he sees you and wants to say hi it means he is not over you and she his wife was never his first choice … it might resemble “his regret” for marrying her… do not blame her maskeena for sending you he is mine msg oho mafrooth inah laman yeshoofich he ignores u for her sake y3ni the least he can do… mo yay besalim 3leech o mortah yammah… do you blame a woman with a husband that is sooo insensitive for being insecure…

    Imagine if the tables were around, if she saw her ex o jumped “baroo7 asalm 3leeh” shino beseer feeh? beyertha? 6b3an la… o in retha beybar6m o yez3al o ye6anger like a big baby!

    Ama 3n salfat if im married o i see my friends while im out with my husband so i run away… hatha yesamonah 3aba6 insecurities… itha ana mo wathqa min nafsi wala min rayle ish7aqa a6l3 wyah? shino beseer beyshofha o yehedne for her? 3yal chithee beyakheth kil banat il q8! mind you… my own cousin, my own flesh and blood, my soul mate, had my mother and my sisters alllll kicked out of her house after her malcha as in “her husband wouldnt see us o marry us or have his brother marry us” with the blessings of her mom… if we had known, we wouldnt have wasted 20 years of our lives with them… now that is called insecure…
