Everyone, this is exactly what I am talking about

As I recently wrote back to Isis, many of these women are just interested in defending their man's reputation. I really can't tell if the men are so insecure that they put them up to it, or if they don't give the women enough attention and that's why they come on here and seek it from another man, being me.

Christine, all you've really said is that your man is Moroccan, you love him, and that he's supposedly done a few favors for you.

This is how it always STARTS. Many times, the real problems won't start until after marriage. Then you'll see the REAL him, Christine.

And if you think you know more about the Middle East because you've been whisked away by a Moroccan and been to Morocco a few times, I'll challenge that anyday.

Because I'll wager real dinars that you haven't even looked at the other side, Christine.

So far, you've only come out of the woodwork when someone else comes on here and disagrees with and/or insults me to support them. And as I've pointed out, nearly every post it's something like "My man is Moroccan and I love him, as if that is the chief reason.

But here, at least you concede that you are looked at differently. That's because outsiders are pretty much always treated differently, and it's a good reason why cross-cultural relationships fail.

Honestly, it's getting kind of redundant. And there is something clearly wrong if you feel the need to keep coming on here and trying to convince me, but you had better convince yourself that this is real love first.
