Thanks. I think I`m just far too accustomed to the countless threads wanting direct advice on something or another, and took this thread to be another one of them.

Now why do you think your husband is so "strange?" I hope it isn't because he married you. (Just kidding!)

I`m not the one who thinks my husband is strange. I think he`s quite wonderful, which is why we`re married.
The "strange" bit is the opinion of his parents. The strong opinion of his mother, who was planning for an arranged marriage before he was even out of high school because a) They`re the family head and he is the eldest son - therefore
needs to be married... and b) She could see no chance of anyone independently
choosing to marry him.
I can`t tell you how many people were outright shocked that he was getting married at all.
