My mother lied about my marriage. It ruined my in-law's life. Ominous. First of all, I want to
0:06
apologize. My story is not funny, but I really need advice. Well, we're not reading it. I can't
0:11
sleep and I'm always thinking, me too girl. I cry in my prayers and ask Allah for forgiveness and
0:17
cannot trust anyone. I am female, 28, from Egypt, living in Dubai now. By the way, this comes from
0:23
Madaru or Manarao. And if you want to submit your own stories, go to r slash okistorytime
0:28
separated. So first of all, I have to tell you, I was raised in Egypt from a middle class family
0:33
but we always lived like poor. My father loved saving money. He didn't like spending at all
0:39
even meat or chickens. We only had it once a week growing up. Still, I have to be fair. My father
0:44
was a great man. He is the best husband and father, really always loving and caring for us
0:49
May he rest in peace. But I never felt like my mom loved him. She always used to complain about
0:55
him, wishing him to pass away. Even saying to his face, I wish you would pass away and we enjoy
1:01
your money. Wow. Wow. I can't blame my mom. Still, I never agreed with her. After he passed
1:08
she bought us a new home in a fancy neighborhood in Cairo and tried to fit in with that community
1:13
But it was always as clear as the sun that we don't belong there. I got married to an Egyptian
1:18
guy from a very rich family. He was born and raised in Dubai, arranged marriage. His father
1:24
is the sweetest man ever. I call him father and I really feel like Allah gave me this man
1:29
replacing the hole in my heart after losing my dear father. Even his mother is a really nice lady
1:35
She's so classy and since my marriage five years ago, she never put her nose in our business or
1:39
anything. Even though we live in the same street, she taught me how to eat, dress and speak like a
1:44
Dubai lady. Me always asking her what is her opinion and she gives me her comments in the
1:49
nicest way possible. This is lovely. I'm a little worried based on the title, but yeah, it seems like
1:53
This is really great. Now, where is the problem? And there we go
1:57
Since the beginning of my marriage, I was unable to get pregnant. We waited for almost two years, which is a long time for a Middle Eastern family
2:05
Finally, when we visited, me and my husband discovered that I have issues and need to be treated
2:09
My mom called my husband from Egypt and asked him not to tell anyone about this, thinking that people might think less of me
2:16
We're not in Egypt anymore. No one has this mentality here. She was so scared that he might divorce me for this reason and she would lose all of this
2:24
But deep inside, I know he would never do that. He took me to the biggest hospitals all over Dubai
2:29
Later on, I got to know that when people asked her about my pregnancy, she used to lie and tell them that my husband had issues
2:36
Crazy. Which means people will think less of him now I got really mad at her but I can show it in our culture We cannot raise our voice to our parents My mother we call her Sue got to know about the rumor She spoke to me and she was very angry
2:49
Stupid me told my mom about this and they both fought. It was kind of a big drama that lasted for some time, but it all ended when I got pregnant
2:58
My husband funded the entire trip for my mom to come take care of me during my pregnancy
3:02
This was the first time my mom left Egypt. She was so happy and honestly, I was even happier for her
3:08
especially my husband's family has a nice home and cars she really lived like a queen for three
3:13
months every day sue sent us breakfast lunch and dinner with the driver i mean it's dubai yeah you
3:20
gotta be like super wealthy to live in dubai they started talking to each other again like nothing
3:25
ever happened oh alhamdulillah i have a very beautiful baby girl she is a gift from god sue's
3:32
friends wanted to visit me to give gifts and pray for the baby that day my mom insisted she would
3:37
cook Egyptian local food for them and show them the actual Egyptian culture
3:41
They came and left. We had fun and everything went amazing. In the evening, Sue called me to check on me
3:46
My phone was on speaker and my mom was next to me as usual. I asked, how was the presentation and everything
3:53
Sue answered, the food was good, but I have a comment. Next time, wipe the dishes and glasses
3:58
You cannot give people wet dishes, but it's okay. I guess they understand your mom used to live in the village and she's doing the best she knows. Oh
4:05
No, Sue. Sue, that's messy. Girl, that's petty. You don't have anything nice to say, just don't say it
4:15
Now, I know this was rude, but believe me, I know Sue very well
4:19
She doesn't mean anything bad, and if she knew my mom was hearing that, she wouldn't have said that
4:23
We don't need to fully forget that. That was just own up that that was messy
4:28
She shouldn't have said that. After closing with Sue, my mom started shouting, saying, why do you allow her to talk to you
4:34
like that? and she raised her voice until my husband woke up. The moment she saw him coming down
4:38
she started crying, telling him, please book my tickets. I'll go back to the village
4:42
I know your mom was never proud of us as in-laws. She's always treating me so bad
4:46
She shouted at me a couple of times. Never happened. And she kept saying many other lies
4:50
Then she told him, you can ask your wife. I didn't know what to do and I don't know why I even got mad at Sue that time
4:57
and agreed with my mom's lies. We're going to get back to the story, but Sam, you have a copious amount of something. What
5:02
What, John? Exes. I have like four or five or six. I heard of six with a zero
5:07

5:33
You also came from a village. If you forgot your roots, you can visit your brothers in Egypt
5:37
Blah, blah, blah. Since, I guess, 2012. Okay, okay. So we're about to time jump
5:42
So pausing really quick. Okay, yes. Sue was really rude. I said a really rude comment
5:47
Yes. And then the mother got all, you know, upset and was like, oh, she's yelled at me all this time
5:53
And then the OP's husband was like, how dare you to his mom? And then OP backed up her mom
5:58
And so now that all just happened. Before we get into this kind of time jump, I think Sue definitely was out of line
6:07
400%. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But if OP knew that her mom was lying, I mean, like, I guess it might be a cultural thing where she felt the need to defend her mother
6:15
But like it seems like they both are really petty to each other. And it's just this back and forth, which is frustrating to deal with as the children in this situation
6:23
What do we do here? I don't know. It's like I think honestly they should have tried to defuse the situation rather than pick sides, I think
6:30
Yeah, because now it's just like what's said has been said and now you can't take it back
6:34
Yeah, I think they should have tried to defuse it, especially because we know that both of them have contributed to the situation
6:40
Obviously, Sue is in the wrong for that comment, for sure. Now it's like a house divided kind of
6:45
And we're going to have a time jump. Since I guess 2020, Sue never entered our home
6:51
Even her relationship with her son became so bad because my mom kept saying more lies
6:57
Honestly, I also did say a lot and I cut my daughter off from that house
7:01
I never felt guilty. I never thought about God's punishment until recently
7:05
I got a call from Sue. She was crying. She said, I will never forgive you
7:09
even after life I will ask God to take my revenge on you and your mother whoa you destroyed my home
7:15
and my family and your mother is texting my husband what she wants from him she told me I
7:19
pray every day to God that your daughter does to you the same as my son did to me she said many
7:24
things I couldn't forget apparently my mom is texting my father-in-law and I have no idea what
7:29
type of conversation they're having that made her swallow her pride and call me later on I get to
7:34
know that she left the home and is staying with her daughter i feel horrible i suddenly realized
7:39
how amazing this woman is the pain we caused her honestly i'm thinking of telling my husband the
7:45
truth but i am so scared of him i can't trust him also now he hurt his mother so easily okay op
7:51
you're about the a-hole yeah what soap opera are we in now what will he do with me girl you've been
7:57
living a lie i thought for a second when op was saying that it was just like oh she was taking her
8:01
mom's eye because she wasn't sure. No she was aware of all of these lies and was And you went with it Yeah Yeah You the a girl You the a Tell your husband the truth Absolutely And it kind of annoying to me that she like oh I scared of him because he turned against his mom so quickly
8:15
And it's like, no, he was defending you and your mom. And guess what? It was a lie
8:20
Because he thought that you were telling him the truth. He trusted you and you lied to him
8:24
You didn't think it was going to get that far. You have to tell him the truth. I feel like I don't love or trust him anymore
8:29
after he cut his mother off for you. You did that. For you
8:35
OP, you're an a-hole. You're the a-hole. Even if it was for me, she's his mother, he will do the same with me someday or another
8:41
Girl, you're the a-hole. I'm sorry, what? This is ridiculous. I feel like OP's instilling this cultural mindset of like, you have to take your parent's side over anything
8:50
Which is, I think, maybe why she's, you know, defending her mom. I'm pretty sure OP's like, this wasn't gonna get that big
8:56
Yeah. Like, it was just like a little lie, and maybe like a little family argument

But there is a little bit left to the story. So we're going to jump into this because I'm freaking pissed at Opie
9:15
Yeah, Opie, you did a huge 180 there. Yeah, like such a giant 180
9:20
Your husband literally defended you and your mom. He lost his mom
9:23
He lost his mom for you. And my mother, I'm so angry at her
9:27
she destroyed the family and now she's going to destroy my life. Stop pointing fingers
9:31
You're pointing fingers now. It's your fault, girl. You were complicit in this
9:35
Yes, like your mom started this, but you are also to blame. You went along with it
9:39
Also, if my husband gets to know what is happening between her and his father, she did all of that because she's jealous of Sue
9:45
I know I'm kind of answering myself, but I can't sleep. I want to tell the truth, but for sure my life will be destroyed
9:51
I will lose my husband and my mother. Plus, I don't think Sue will ever go back even after I say the truth
9:56
I feel like they will not bother to apologize to her at this point as well which will hurt her
10:01
it is better for her and for everyone like this but I just feel so guilty please advise me everyone
10:07
I have too many things in my heart to say but I already wrote too much I need to talk to someone
10:12
and there are comments and I'm so excited to read them because I feel that they are going to be
10:16
saying the same thing as us they're gonna be very juicy comment one you can't trust him he did the
10:21
right thing when he thought his mother did awful things to you and your mother you need to tell him
10:25
immediately if religion matters to you at all you know that if his mother passes away before he asks
10:31
her for forgiveness and fixes this it's going to be a really bad thing he needs to know and he needs
10:37
to ask forgiveness and that is the end of that story but your lying is serving no one all the
10:43
religious cursing here you need to get this like you're oh man you caused all this op you're an a-hole
10:49
i agree your mom a-hole stinky stinky stinky but that is the end of that story
