Polygamy 411

We landed and arrived at our destination on Friday, May 8, 2009.  The scene was gorgeous, extremely beautiful, just picturesque…

All was good, for the moment that is.  Here is where the problem came in:

My understanding is that in polygamous marriages when one wife is happy the other one is usually sad and vice versa.  The husband wants the wives to both be happy at the same time. Can two wives of one husband be happy simultaneously?  Would Alex ever be happy in our polygamous marriage?

Alex still didn’t seem quite himself that evening and I was getting a bit tired of it. The whole time, now, I’m thinking about our polygamous situation, not about my new-found earthly paradise. I’m now thinking, I’m with someone who is probably concerned about what’s happening back at home with his other woman…oops…wife.  Was she “breaking down?”  What did she say to him before he left?

So, I go out on the balcony to relish the breath-taking view and breathe in the fresh cool breeze, only to go back inside and find Alex on his blackberry. Was he communicating with Carolinah?  Once before when Alex and I were away, Carolinah continued to text me, saying Alex was going to think of her the entire time he was away with me.  Was she intent on making that happen? I began to question what was real and what was just my imagination…what was going on here?
