NP’s Family Dynamics with Eesher: I Gambled with Love… and Lost Everything
Some lessons in life come too late — after the damage has been done and the people we love have walked away. This week’s story is a heartfelt confession from a man who had it all but lost what truly mattered, simply because he thought love and loyalty would last forever, no matter how badly he treated them.
Dear Sis Eesher,
I want my story to serve as a lesson for men who take their wives’ patience for granted.
I married my wife when I had nothing. She was a virgin when we met — gentle, humble, and willing to grow with me through life’s uncertainties. She came from a family that didn’t look down on my humble beginnings. In fact, they supported me. Her father gave me my first big opportunity, and her mother once loaned me money to register my first business name.
My wife was the silent engine behind my success. She prayed for me, planned with me, and pushed me to become who I am today. But somewhere along the line, I changed.

Money started coming in, followed by attention… and then other women. I began staying out late, lying, cheating, and disrespecting my vows. I became the kind of man I once swore I’d never be.
She noticed — of course she did.
She would say, “One day, I’ll leave. I won’t argue. I’ll just go.”
I thought it was an empty threat. I thought she’d always be there. She was too loyal, too forgiving… and I took advantage of that. I stretched her patience, her kindness, and her love until there was nothing left to stretch.
Then, one day… she left. No goodbye. No warning.
It’s been two years now. She relocated to Canada with our child, without telling me until after she had gone. I have called, begged, changed, and cried in ways I didn’t know a man could. But her silence is louder than any insult I’ve ever heard.
She’s not just gone — she’s done.
Her family calls me occasionally to come and take my bride price. They no longer respond to me. They have washed their hands off me like I’m contagious. Honestly, I don’t blame them.
I destroyed my own family. I broke what was whole. I traded peace for pleasure. I gambled with love… and I lost everything.
Now I have wealth, but nothing to come home to. I eat alone. I wake up empty. I stare at my phone, hoping for a message that never comes.
Of what use is wealth when your home is gone?
To men like me: don’t wait until you’ve lost a good woman to realize her worth. I miss my wife and my child every single day.
My dear brother,
Your honesty today is the courage you should have had years ago. A good woman’s patience is not endless; it is a gift that must be cherished and nurtured. When it is abused, it disappears silently — not in a storm, but in a quiet, final departure.
Some losses can’t be undone, but they can be lessons. You may never get her back, but you can honour her by becoming the man you should have been — for the sake of your child and for your own soul.
May Allah heal your heart, forgive your wrongs, and guide men who still have good women to never gamble with their love.
With prayers, Sis Eesher
