I'm a 'mail order bride' now an american citizen and I was going to leave my husband after I got citizenship but now I am thinking. He paid a lot of money for me, over $2000 I think. If I left him, would that not be like stealing?

If he bought and paid for me, does that make me his property? I want to leave but if I did I think it would be wrong, I should stay and honor the arrangement. If I'm his property I should act like it.
