Same story

I have been dating a Turkish guy for 3 months. He was very secretive about things. We had a lot of fun and he was a gentleman in almost every way. He would never commit to dating just me. He would date someone EVERY night of the week! I was usually two nights a week. He always wanted to have unprotected sex but would then ask me if I was clean and disease free!

All in all, they are not committed to any one woman. I am over simplifying but the majority of women I have spoken too or read about all say the same thing. If you want a Turk, you must be able to turn a blind eye while they screw everyone else in the city. They will be kind and loving to you but not overly affectionate. If you do get the opportunity to marry him, you marry the family not him (which is fine but different from other cultures)

Don't ever think he will stop cheating, he will just become smarter about it and a better liar.
