Oh, God, you could not describe it better.

Im spanish woman, 36. I was separated when i met my actual husband in Egypt, i did not mean to meet anyone and i was fed up with men behaviour in that country when i was on a holidays there.

Then in the last days on my trip i met this man, 2 years younger than me and i fell in love with him. I married him 4 months ago (after a long process of paper work, trips on my side to visit him, saving money like mad to afford my trips and many many sufferings and sacrifices).

But i felt life without him was worthless, i was wrong, i just was in need of love and attention, otherwise i would never been so blind and, for sure, i would never accept his behaviour to any other man from my country. I thought everything was due to cultural differences. How stupid i was!!!

These men are users, as they say: money makes beautiful the ugliest and if one goes (referring to women) thousands are coming. These men working with tourists have no heart and of course, no honery.

Do you want to know what my "dear" husband told me before coming to live to Spain? If i cant success there (maybe he thought that he would have a post in the ministry or the king of Spain was making a reception for him to welcome him) i will go back to my country, ALONE, without you and i dont want you in my country, forget about me because if i go back home i will get an egyptian wife, so its your choice.

That opened my eyes and thank God he is not coming. What these people think? I would tell you because i have had many talks with them: they see western women as bitches and money/chances factories. Its sad but its true. My husband told me that many times but really, i believed that he apreciated my heart and my love for him.

I was blind and deaf to anyone trying to advice me but sadly, i have seen the light by myself. Please, anyone, think very well about falling in love with these men. Its almost impossible to find a honest person. Their mentality is completely out of our world.

I respect Islam and muslim people but their culture is another thing and they are unable to see further. And please, very careful about money, it should give you a clue of their intentions.

Sorry for my english as is not my mother tongue but i think its enough for you to understand what i mean.

Thanks to everybody and to this blog.
