If you asked me five years ago whether I would ever let my husband have other women, I’d have rolled my eyes and said, “Aiyah, don’t be crazy!” But life got its own plans, lah. Today, I’m living in a way I never imagined — my husband has women who adore him, and I accept it fully. Why? Because he’s a man who can make the impossible possible.
He’s not just successful — he’s the kind of person who turns every challenge into an opportunity. When our business was struggling, he found creative ways to keep everything afloat. When my parents needed support, he was the first to step in. Seeing how he takes care of everyone around him made me realise what kind of man he is: responsible, generous, and endlessly capable.
Some of his lovers are younger women who admire him for his achievements. There is even an older woman, but she is rich and obviously does not need my husband’s money and even supports him. But instead of trying to fight for his attention, they call me “Elder Sister” out of respect. They visit our home politely, even offering to help when I’m busy or feeling unwell. I used to think other women would only bring trouble, but these ladies surprised me with their kindness.
Finding Peace in an Unconventional Marriage
Of course, people like to gossip lah. Some neighbours think I’m just a pushover, others say I’ve lost control. But they don’t know our life behind closed doors: we share laughter, deep conversations, and unwavering support. My husband never hides anything from me. He tells me where he goes, who he sees, and makes sure I never feel left out.
I realised marriage is not a one-size-fits-all contract. For some, loyalty means strict monogamy. For others, like us, it’s about openness, honesty, and trust. As long as we communicate and care for each other, it doesn’t matter what others think, leh. Why should I throw away our happiness just to meet other people’s expectations?
To me, love isn’t about keeping someone in a cage; it’s about letting them be themselves while knowing they’ll still come home to you. And if you’ve truly found a partner who treasures you, you’ll learn to let go of insecurity, lor.
In the end, my marriage might not look “normal” to everyone, but it works perfectly for us. And that, to me, is the real meaning of love.
