Deary,

I am American and lived in Egypt for 6 months.

Run away!!!!! This guy, although he probably seems really sweet, kind, etc.....

Just wants your moola. I know how they think, you'll just "wire down some dough" and he'll put everything in his name. Think of any scam you've heard in the US x1000. It gets pretty dodgy in Egypt, and even worse in the Gulf. They think of us like "money trees".

Like I said before, would you ever EVER consider buying a flat with guy in the US after dating a few days? Hell, no! So why in Egypt? I don't follow you.

Trust yourself, take care
