re green card and ID card

Firstly, it was a faux pas to mention your fear that he might be chasing after a green card. Honor is so important in the middle east and you put his honor in question, whether or not he is chasing after a card. You needed to wait for other red flags rather than being open about this. Watch and wait.

As for his single status on the ID card, it is meaningless. They are supposed to change this if married but it comes in handy to keep it saying he's single and the police see this as a minor thing and won't fine him. My husband kept his saying single so he could get a passport with the same status ( the one i paid for in doing his immigration to canada ) and thus go marry the german girl illegally. I think he's pulling a scam on her family.

As for the jealousy and moods - typical but meaningless. My husband put on a show of jealousy over an incident. It doesn't equal love - it's just a blemish on his honor that he's reacting to.
