Sure got a way to manipulate!

These men are manipulative, you know? This one was subtle and manipulative! I didn't even notice how the heck he got me to pay to call him, even! The more I think about it, the better I feel about skipping myself out of that situation.

I really hope that ladies considering spending their money and lives marrying some Moroccan or immigrant take time to ASK A LOT of questions and keep a very wide-open eye. These people are dirt poor, and willing to do anything to come to the States. Are you willing to reject your culture? Convert to Islam and cover your head and gawd knows what else? Change your lifestyle and not be able to go see a freaking Hulk movie because in their eyes it is forbidden? Not be able to enjoy a night out with friends or have a fun day at the beach like normal people? Are you willing to be called a weirdo or a needy freak by friends who see the madness you are getting yourself into?

Come on, gals, think! You're not so needy that you'll take another society's rejects, are you?
