The man I have been talklng to for almost 8 months and planning to spend the rest of our lives together says he isn't a practicing muslim either. I have seen a little bit of the white lies and sneakiness too, but he can always talk himself out of them. So I never know if he's being true or not. It's difficult.

But he has a lot of great qualities too. I have been helping him save for a work visa to come here. Maybe he loves money too, who knows. I hope not. I have almost walked away a few times because of the uncertainties, it drives me crazy, but on the idea that he is real, I have to stay in it because I am crazy about him. I'm hoping for the best. I have been reading a little about Islam even though he doesn't practice, just to get some insight.
