I DO NOT THINK IT MATTERS

Submitted by GR Hadiya (United States), Jul 1, 2007 at 00:31

As I watch the posts in this forum I do not believe it matters what one says for just as I may say I agree with some of the women with Moroccan men, I being a wife of a Moroccan man there will be those who say no no no.

We are all uniquely designed created by God and we should not judge, and yet many stand in judgement. I believe that no one, not anyone person can truly comment on anothers relationship or marriage. I believe it is between the man and woman or the husband and wife.

There are many reasons a marriage may not work. When people hear of a cultural marriage that did not work out all they can say is it was for a green card " BUT " when a marriage between citizens does not work it is called OH WELL! There is a saying : IGNORANCE IS BLISS! " It is a shame that Ignorance walks anywhere. Age should be of no consideration but People make it a big thing. Age is just a number. To be honest I am 57 and my husband is 30 and my dear husband had his green card 2 months after arriving to the USA.

I know of an American woman 60 married to her 30 something Moroccan husband and they are very happy.

I know a woman who was 43 and married her 23 year old Moroccan husband and they are now blessed with a baby boy.

I also know of a few marriages from different walks of lives that did not work and that is their business not mine or anyone elses.

I will state this and I honestly believe that there are people who want to instill fear, to control a conversation or just be self opinionated rather then help. I have helped women with information, lending an ear or just being there. I tell women it begins and ends with them, consider that is said and take what works for them and throw what doesn't away.

You see the woman is the only one who can decide for HERSELF! Michelle if you want to talk my email is hadiya_mokassara@yahoo.com
