Marriage trap
Don't even know where to begin. Got married at 24, i was doing mphil at that time. I was earning well through social media but had no control over my fiances because it all went to my dad accounts which i didn't mind because he was already paying for all hostel university fees etc. I am the eldest , life was good until i got married. I was brought from my peak era in terms of studies / career to the ground. I never had any relationship before because of the idea that i was always considered as Izat protector (still now i am 26)
I didn't see any red flags and didn't realize how everything will change for me. In simple words kuch b mera nahi raha.
I feel like a puppet, half strings my parents have and half my in laws. I still live with my parents (my husband lives abroad ) i always brush it off when people told me shadi ke baad sab change ho jata hai.
My parents changed all the steps they took in marriage steps i realized they were for their own benefits. I can't do job cz izat protector as I will bring affairs home and my parents don't wanna deal with it. My husband on the other hand is just money making machine for his family (i don't get any benefits)
I lost my personality. I cry every night how helpless i feel. I do wanna go against everything but i have nothing. I am honestly living like a dead moving person. Lost my connection with Allah. Whenever i try to talk explain myself how depressing it is everyone tells me i am na shukri and look at other homeless people. My parents & my husband both can afford my studies very easily tho.
