Prearranged Muslim Marriage

I have been dating a Pakistani Muslim man for several months. This week I discovered he was married. His marriage was prearranged and over the telephone to a woman in Pakistan. He is a citizen of the US. He was married the week before we met. He has said that he loves me, he doesn't love her. He didn't tell me because he never expected to fall in love with me when we met. He thought we could be together until his life of imprisonment in a system he cannot change started. Is this how these things really work? Can he not be with me if he wants? She is still in Pakistan awaiting her visa. What happens if his family finds out about me? Do I need to be looking over my shoulder? Thanks for any information you can give me.

dear sister hisbabylove

that man is certainly not a baby that he was forced to marry someone without his consent. if he is sane then he must have given a thought to it. what do u think?

nothing is going to happen if his family finds about u, he is definitely free to choose whatever he wants. if he really loves u and considers his wife a burden, then he can divorce her - which is an extremely simple procedure. why is he hanging her without any fault and assuring u or his love?

as a woman, would u like that an innocent woman gets divorced because of u? and are u sure u would like to marry a man who does that?and why he cant do that with u in future?

apparently, he was just passing time with u and now he is acting cowardly!

Allah knows best!

all the best! PS: i'm also a Pakistani Muslim
