My story is extreme to the most...

I was married seven years to a moroccan. I have two children.

This man killed a prostitute in Spring this year.

I am still under shock.

The man that I was living with fell into deep drug problems while I was pregnant with our second son.

He left me completely abandoned morally and financially....

In spring he threatened me to death. But then he killed her.....

I already was separated since nearly one year, but still it's the man I shared some years with, and the most difficult situation: the father of my children.

Still I must say that I love the country Morocco.

What is it, that the people from there don't really integrate in our society ?

My ex was a very modern man, but too weak to stand the test.

He wasn't even religious really.

I still wonder if it was only the culture, or if he himself was a "freak"....

We can never put them all in a box.

I also met great family members of his, and I guess I just married "the wrong" one...

Those who want to leave a country might be searching for the impossible.
