to Masriya

i guess you know masriya means egyptian ...am asking why did you decide to have that nickname ?

i really find it so hard to defend an ill act of one of my fellow citizens but yes you are right that kind of men do exist ...opportunists yes very much true ...and that kind of men have an eye to find a good catch and furthermore they do everything and anything to have a good fish using the best love words of all romance books ...pretending a charachter far from being themselves ...

but i should say that that kind of men is not commonly present here ....i lived here all my life and know it to be a fact .

look at it from the other side . i should blame you too for how it went ....how can you fall in love with someone you met in a tour visit ..and when exactly did you decide yes i love him....and why have you been through all the hassle of marriage formalities without being hit with something to wake you up ..

i also should agree with you that the islamic religion is something and moslims are something different .... as i said before its the ill way of raising children . by the way i know lots of marriages between egyptians of both sexes to europeans, americans and australian women that are extremely successful ...

one of the guys kidnapped in the desert of egypt with some tourists is married to a german woman and she was crying and weeping every time tv interview her till her husbend and the others safely came to cairo and the joy in her eyes something i cant describe ....

you simply fell in love with the wrong man ....and many do it for money , citizenship or work and the last they think of is having a decent family

by the way costa del sol is soooo beautiful

good luck and am sorry for what happened
