We have been married for 6+ years (April 2010). We never been happily led the life so far. I was working in USA and talked to my current wife over skype, my parents went to their home and fixed marriage. I came to india on vacation, got married, went to honeymoon to kerala. She came to USA in AUG 2010, we roam around USA. She started asking me show my bank balance after two months she came to USA, I honestly did show her. I am elder in my home among 3 brothers, I did goo help to my family before my marriage, I even told this to her. She started abusing and mentally harassing me since then, I asked her to leave to India, She kept quite and she became pregnant in DEC 2010.
She diagnosed with Hepatitis B during her pregnancy but got delivered baby girl with no issues in AUG 2011. I invited her parents to USA during that time to help her, but my wife did not tell me that her mother is suffering from mental illness and she started behaving wild, keeping her clothes off like that after 11/2 months they came in. I finally with help of charity and Air india able to sent her back india, She hit the police in Chicago airport for which they opened case, finally I pleaded them to close the case. Again few week later my wife started harassing me by abusing me, my parents.
Stating that i I had to get all the money that I given to my family before marriage, she totally insulted me like a dog.
I could not perform well at work, decided to come back to india, even her mother incident set negative impact on me mentally, like I never sleep without lights off at night till today.
We came to Bangalore, I got job after month came to india in MAR 2013, my wife's harassment become worsen and questioned me that why did i given child to her. stating that my parents has to come down to Bangalore to Hyderabad and help her or give all the money. Also she forced be like hell to buy a house, every day harassment. She threaten to commit suicide, my unfortunate is that I did not record all this.
Finally in SEP 2014. my daughter was ill due to cold weather, she left my place and told me that she will come after 6 months, I took a chance and vacated my apartment and gone abscond, do not know what to do. My parents never allowed her to come to their home at HYD and I was no reachable ( I know it is not good, but I could not tolerate her violence at home, just want to be away with her some time). In MAY 2015 she lodged police compliant against me in her home town and I went to station by committing both of that will live well together.
Today DEC 2016 since she came to me, she was slowly started behaving like earlier and today she become what she was before. She was demanding me to show her my bank balance and asking me to tell all financials and also threatening that she will drag me, my parents to police station again. If one day late to home, she saying I might have affairs with others. Also she is not allowing my kid to show to my parents, saying they will kill her with poison.
