response to Susan

Hi Susan,

I did in fact go to Morocco and marry and i did pay for part of the wedding but his parents also helped pay. In fact they paid a big portion of our wedding, which turned out beautiful. The only advice i can give you is that you have to follow your heart. There are so many people here that tell me he is just using me and when he gets here that he will leave me but i just say that a risk I'm willing to take.

As you know I'm sure, its hard for men to find work there and if they do they are paid well. So for me I dont mind helping my husband out as i know in my heart when he comes here he will do the same for me. If you love this man and trust him then you shouldnt be asking anybody's advice, follow your heart that's what i did and i am very happily married today and i hope so will you be..I'm sure there are many men out there who are in fact just using women for money and coming to work here in the states but as for me I know my husband and i know what we have is true love..Good luck to you!!
