Hi Lani

firstly , thank you very much for responding. I can tell you that last september he went with his parents to Mecqua.........i was very surprised he went because although he prays five times daily. goes to the mosque on a friday ...i was surprised that he went with them .....He is always fighting with his dad .They never agree to anything ....

I have met the parents many times They clearly liked me and love my two young daughters ...They dont know i'm in a relationship with him .They think we are friends .

I'm older than he 10yrs....Although to look at us both you wouldnt guess ...I'm from UK......i have a place in Agadir and in october last year ...he called me to tell me that his parents had arranged a marriage with his cousin in casablanca and he objected and moved into my apartment . he got a job out of the family business and ...his older brother has done the same....he just gone to belgium to marry in secret there.

he hasnt lied to me about things but im just feeling sad that he cannot tell them ...At first he said he would try and that he expexted the big NO but ....although he makes it plain he doesnt want to stay in Agadir ...he says that after we are married ...they cannot do anything about it. .i really am hooked on him ...We have stayed in aptmt for a week last february and in April i had enough flew over to Agadir changed the locks kicked him out ...and still we are in touch with eachother and cannot let go .

Im just gutted ......I think if i was younger there wouldnt be a problem . His dad has an lnkling about us both ...as he asked my bf ..."is there anything between you two"...i feel bad for cheating them if we do marry ....but it will mean ....as he has told me that if we marry in Agadir ...we will have to move to casablanca or another city .......................Dont know what to think!
