Hi.
Is saying the truth a wrong thing in a relationship? I told my fiance that i will have a second wife after our marriage which is allowed in Islam and she turned me off. Please i need your help to solve this problem.
Thanks

You did not marry her yet and you are informing her that you will have second wife ....what do you want her to do ???? Am Muslim too....Islam had put very stricted conditions to get married from more than one ... in your case, none had applied on you because you did not even get married yet...Honestly I do not know what to say about you guys .....it's resentful....you take the part you like of the holly book and apply it and forget about the rest of it

Honesty and truth are VERY important in a relationship.

I am not educated in your choice to marry more than one woman, but I can speak from a woman's perspective.....
I can't blame her for being upset at your statement. While I'm glad you told her BEFORE marriage so she knew up-front, its her choice not to enter that type of marriage if it makes her uncomfortable. She may not be the right person for you, or if you want her to be, you may have to just marry one.

Then she can't handle it, that's her problem.
But I doubt if many women will take it...LOL.
It's good to know, and I tell you what I will act...just like what she did.
