I too want to thank you for opening up this forum.
I recently met a man on a dating site who lives in Jordan...I am in the U.S. We clicked very quickly and speak now of being in love. He is charming, funny, well spoken, and claims that he wants to spend his life with me.
We spend hours at a time on Skype. I have allowed others to steal the joy he brings me because there's always that stigma that he only wants a visa. Which end he promised to never ask me for.
He says he would live anywhere on the planet as long as it's with me. I want to believe in him.. As it insulting to say you love someone and then not trust their words, he pointed out.
I knew I wanted to be with him almost immediately. I truly believe I've found my Penguin " soulmate " and he as introduced me to his family.
Out side of the fact that he was married before to an American woman" she came back to the states leaving him there and taking his money. Which is what he fears I will do.
Funny! He wants me to come to Jordan to be with him. And marry in the future. Please help! My heart is so there my mind hears the horrible stories about women getting used.
I believe men will lie and cheat ( woman too) regardless of where they are from. I just want to love him..
He calls me his wife already and has asked me to be his girlfriend ( I read that Jordanians don't use this term) he did it to please me.
Which is all he has done since we started talking. He wants to judged on what he does not what others have done. Don't we all! Does anyone have advice on this?
Remember if you can't say something nice...
Don't say anything.
