Yesterday, My boyfriend insulted my dad in front of me. I’ll forgive everything but it’s hard for me to let this one go. My dad has always been good to him. We’ve dated for two years and a few months. Anytime he came home to visit, my dad accepted him as his child and treated him with respect and kindness.

We are not a wealthy family but what we lack in money, we have it in abundance when it comes to love and respect. I don’t need to say everything my dad has done for his children but the fact that all five of us have completed the university is something I’m proud of and would always be grateful for.

My boyfriend came home with his family to do knocking. The dowry list was given to him and they left. That evening, he started acting cold. I wanted to know what was on the list so we could start preparing. When I asked him, he told me, “I better not talk about it.”

I sensed the ice in his voice so I went to his place. He told me, “It looks like your father wants to use me as a poverty alleviation program. Does he understand what he wrote on the list?”

I took the list and went through one after the other. Some of the things listed were on the high side but that didn’t give him the right to say that about my dad right in front of me. I pointed out to him that what he said was wrong. There’s always a way around such issues. He screamed, “If he wants to get rich overnight through you, then he should count me out. I’m not ready to do that.”

My Husband Doesn’t Know That I Know His Affair Partner Is Pregnant

I left his place crying but he didn’t bother to say sorry or say anything to calm me down. I got home and decided until he apologizes, I’m not going back to the arrangement. I’ve told him. He says I should rather advise my dad. Do you think we both have a future? Looking at what’s happening?
