I Got Married To A Man I Never Met For 9 years (Storytime)

For nine years, I didn't see my husband until our marriage ended. I got married to a man who lives abroad. On our traditional marriage day, his junior brother, who calls me auntie, stood in for him. He promised to get my papers ready after the marriage ceremonies. After the traditional marriage, I stayed back with my parents because my husband is not around. My mother-in-law wasn't okay with the idea so she talked my husband into bringing me to live with her in the village. After much talks I decided to go and spend some time with them. I didn't tell you people that my husband's only sister gave birth at home and she's living with my mother-in-law. After six months I got tired of staying at home doing nothing, not even a business or office work because my husband said no need of starting what I won't finish because of my relocation to join him.

I started disturbing my husband about my relocation because nothing has been done from my own end. Like going to the immigration office to international passport or anything. He told me not to rush him that he knows what he's doing over here for the process to be fast. He sweet talked me into believing him again. One day my mother-in-law dressed up, called the taxi who came to pick her at home. The taxi man picked her, my sister-in-law and her daughter. They left without telling me their way about. Immediately I called my husband. I told him that his people just left without telling me anything. He said it's not a must, they must tell me all their activities. My husband's younger brother who stood in for his marriage on my traditional marriage day came visiting. He's so cheerful and always happy. I was happy that day because it has been a long time I had a good chat. As we were still inside, my husband called and I picked. What are you doing with my younger brother? He asked me. I became confused. I was trying to playfully tell him we are just chatting since he's not around to keep us company. That became an issue. He didn't call nor pick my calls for three months. I was in enduring all without telling my people. 

After sometimes he called me and apologized and I accepted. In all of this I've not seen him before we only met on social media. After six months my sister-in-law and her daughter started buying new books and plenty of things for traveling. I thought this was a church program or so. The next day, they left very early, even before I woke up. It was my mother-in-law that told me to come and sweep my husband's compartment that Nene and her daughter traveled. After two days, I saw a post made by my husband's younger brother. He has traveled out of the country with my sister-in-law and her daughter.

Wow! That was my first shout. They went to meet my husband because I saw their welcome pictures and video. It became a mixed feeling. I don't know if I should be happy or if I should cry. Before then, my husband already told me he's coming back for Christmas.

So I decided to maintain my cool. I didn't ask him anything since he didn't want to tell me anything. Out of my emotional pain, I packed my bags, told my mother-in-law that I'm going to see my mom. The first thing she told me was, don't tell me that good news is chasing you away. I didn't reply her. I left. My husband didn't call me and I did not call him. I'm still wondering why he married me. As long as I'm concerned, the marriage is over. Guys, I want to end this marriage. This marriage is over. But is it really over?

What do I do? Do I find my way to the UK to go look for him? What do I do? Let me know in the comment section
