i caught my husband having sex with my mother, and when i confronted them, my mother looked me in the eyes and said, “ask your husband how long i’ve been protecting you.” i slapped my husband and started screaming at my mother. my husband didn’t defend himself. he just sat on the bed with his head down. i asked my mother what she meant. she said, “before you married him, i found out something about him that would have destroyed your life. i kept quiet because you were already pregnant with his child.” i turned to my husband. “what is she talking about?” he started crying. then my mother said, “tell her who you were married to before you met her.” my husband looked at me and whispered: “your mother was my first wife’s best friend.” i was confused. “what does that have to do with me?” my mother finally revealed the truth. “your husband didn’t meet you by accident. he knew who you were before he ever spoke to you.” would you want to know the real reason he married you, or would you leave without hearing another word?
