I agree with you Annie

I am currently involved with a Morrocan man and i have to say he is the best thing that has ever happened to me. We both don't drink or do drugs and we both have the same love for my children and above all we have respect for each other and our beliefs.

Are we married?? Not yet, do we plan to, yeah we do.

As for being controlling and asking for money, no and no. So people its up to you to decide if a guy is a loser or not. Both men and women can be like that in any race religion and so forth, that's why as a person you need to make yourself aware like the saying goes if its too good to be true it normally is.

Life is not easy its full of choices and its up to you to make the right choice for yourself, because the bottom line is you live with your choice not your family or your friends YOU!! If you yourself can't make a few sacrifices and if he can't either then ask yourself why am I with this person. and if you can't find the answer then maybe you shouldn't be with that person. Or if you go by what others think or feel then ask yourself Why am I here?? If its for anyone but yourself again you shouldn't be with that person its not rocket science. I don't fall in love because I was told to and I don't date or be with someone because someone else made that decision for me.

I live in Canada we have freedom and I am proud of that freedom, and I won't settle because someone told me to, I do it because I want to and for women that followed their boyfriends/husbands you already had doubts, you just wanted to prove to yourself that you were right about doubting and I hate to say it but if you already had doubts you shouldn't have been so free with your cash and your status. You say you were smart a smart woman would sit there and ask herself do I really trust him, or am I doing this because I love him so much I don't want to lose him?? Or you are afraid he'd run to someone else, either way the outcome is the same: he got what he wanted and left, its like having sex on the first date....only it cost you way more.

What I am trying to say is whenever in doubt its best to ask questions and if the answer isn't what you expect it to be then do your research, or just flat out say NO simple as that.
