Donna....

Donna.....I read your response...I really can't say why I've decided to stay with him. I guess I'm not really ready to leave him since I do like his company, our conversations and of course the intimacy. It's all part of feeling so alone since I recently got a divorce. I know this is a phase and eventually I will meet a nice person in which I can move forward with. I hate to say that Rachid is a stepping stone, but I do feel attracted to him since he is different and I've never dated a Arab before. In the long run, I know that I will probably suffer more than needed because of his manipulation and his constant mood swings. We don't see each other everyday and I think that's good since I don't know how this relationship would progress if we were any closer. Don't get me wrong...it's not always bad. He's just very controlling and knows exactly what he wants...but he doesn't share and is very private about his true feelings. These men are like that.

He's currently married to a white girl, in which I saw a picture of her and you can clearly see how he used her for the residency status. She fits the exact profile of the victim: overweight, unattractive, ect....I feel bad for her...I don't know what happened, but I'm very sure that she left him because of God knows how he treated her. He's been separated from her for about 6 months or so....then thats how we met. I don't fully know how the residency/citizenship process works...but I know he keeps bringing up paper work and not having his green card yet. I'm going to do my homework/research on that.

Don't get me wrong...I'm not trying to fall in love with this guy. Infact, I'll probably start dating others since I read alot of these awful stories. A real big eye opener. Trust me. I'm not going to lye, it was a disappointment to read all of this, but it's better to know it now than to be laid up in a hospital on the crazy ward later. How can these physically beautiful men be so manipulative, mean, cold and heartless. It's all part of the plan. Women are nothing to them....just a side kick. :(
