i had a relationship with a muslim man for 1 year and half.......he was from India....i'm from europe...i have 20 years..he has 24.....he came to my country to study...i m also studying..(university..second year ....i wanna be a doctor) ....

we were happy together, he was not a religious muslim..i mean, he used to drink, have fun...but he also respected some traditions...like dont eat pork and dont have sex before marriage....everything was fine..after 3 months....he asked me to marry him...i was surprised and told him we must wait...he must know me better and i must know him better before we get married...

.i think that in 1 year he asked me 5 times to marry him..he said he will leave his family, and he will do whatever i want if i marry him.....i said that i still want to finish school to have a job...and he told me no...i cant do that...why do i need a job? his family has a lot of money...i dont have to work...he can give me what i want ...without working.....ok....i was sad...and then he said that he will let me work and finish school...ok...everything was fine again...

he wanted to meet my parents ...and i was confused about his parents...what if they will not like me? i'm not a muslim...he said that they will love me..because his parents will do anything for him....ok...he never met my parents...because i didnt want...i was afraid to marry him..i read many things about muslim countries, about their culture....things that he never told me...everytime i asked him about their culture etc...he used to change the subject....and i never met his parents....

in december this year he told me he has to go home. ..and that he misses his family and i said ok...i thought he will come back....he told me that he loves me and he will miss me and he will call me....well...now we are in february...and he sent me just 1 mail a week ago where he told me he loves me and he is missing me...and i feel so sad...in 3 months he send me just 1 mail...he didnt said that he will come back...or other things...he just said in that mail that he loves me....do you think he married someone else? do you think he will come back to my country? why didnt he ever called me? he sent me just 1 mail in 3 months...:( :(
