Boyfriend threatens to expose our relationship to my parents; ruin my life and career.

Within one month of knowing each other, we got together as courting couple. It was my first time. It was him who wanted, and I was reluctant at the start, but followed him.

We didn’t want to get into any kind of relationship as we knew and discussed that it is Haram to be in any kind of pre-marital relationship..

Emotional and verbal abuse has left me depressed, exhausted, and thinking of committing suicide.

I was born in the US and married to an Algerian for 8 years.
I became Muslim about 7 years ago, but I have a lot of trouble learning Arabic and memorizing Quran. This has become a hurdle in my marriage because my husband feels that he shouldn’t have to remind me to read Quran and fast (which I do with GREAT difficulty because of anemia.) We are also having a big problem with my role as wife and mother….
