Second Wife Syndrome!

I am a clinical counselling psycologist and also a marriage and family therapist. I am currently interested in understanding views and perceptions of what it means to be a second wife with the purpose of helping ladies to achieve greater happines in marriage.

I would like to invite your reactions, comments and experineces if:
1. You are a second wife
2. You are a first wife
3. You are a husband to more than one wife
4. Any other readers who care to share their reactions about this topic

To start the ball rolling, these are some comments with regards to being a second wife:
1. Husband stealer
2. Destroyer of marriage
3. Disrupting love and loyalty in the first family
4. No official recognition
5. Always considered secondary to the first wife

Your responses can be in Bahasa Malaysia or in English. I'd appreciate your oppinions over your judgements. Personal identity is not required and I am more interested in stories rather than the individual. However, follow-up consultation is welcome and may be arranged.
