Hi Maurita,

I'm very sorry that this has happened to you. Were you married to him? This is why I came to this site to get insight into what I am getting myself into, as I mentioned in my previous post, this man comes to me through a long time Moroccan friend of a friend, i've known her for almost 9 yrs and she's known her friend for almost as long, so I figure i'm relatively safe.

I'd also like to mention there are bad, deceitful men from all walks of like, I really don't like the fact that Moroccan men are being vilified, because they certainly do not hold the monopoly on bad men. Again I am very sorry that this happened to you.

I still plan to meet this man, we've been talking online for 2 months now, if I were to marry him i'd love to wait at least 3 yrs before children, but I just turned 38 today as a matter of fact. Yes I admit, my age is what is the motivating factor this getting to know this man, not to mention coming to me highly recommended. I'm an american black female and a lot of my peers are looking at being single forever, or being single mothers, or are single mothers. Marriage and relationships are a gamble no matter who you are with.
