Hi Jennifer, first of all I want to say I love NYC! I visited there two years ago and didn't want to leave. Anyway, the thing is, is that I have plenty of self esteem, I have no problem with that. And I know three other guys I could be dating right now, one of them being Moroccan, if I wanted to, that would treat me like gold. But, I really love this guy. I fell for him right away, and my feelings have never changed. I went through a lot of trust issues and but finally worked through them.

He is planning to come here on a work visa and we're saving money for that. Hopefully, it actually happens at some point...lol We will see I guess, but I'm trusting him because I love him and that's what I've chosen to do. There's always a chance I'll end up getting hurt, I'm aware of that. But I guess I'm willing to take the risk. He's everything I want. The only problem I have with him is that I'm a constant person and need the same, and he isn't. It drives me crazy. I need to talk to him at least every other day. But he's been better lately, I hope that he'll keep it up.

I've been reading your posts and it looks like you (like hundreds of others) have been through a lot. I think it's great that you are here sharing your experiences and giving people advice. I'm sure it's helping many women who come to this site.
