Thank you Lina. I am sure some of your best qualities may even come from your Moroccan step-dad....I agree with everything you said. There is one sister I have not met (she was away in Europe)and just tonight he overheard her on the phone with his mom asking his mom questions and making negative comments to her like "He could be in trouble cause I have kids" and things like "He must be carefiul American's are not easy" and he was upset and protective and stopped the conversation cause he does not want this bad jealous sister to try and put bad ideas into his moms mind which is same as some are doing here....

He told me he heard the mom tell her I have good kids and the oldest son will live away soon but he took phone and stopped the conversation cause he feels he does not owe the sister or others any explainations and he told his mom she should not discuss with her my private life so he was upset with the mom.....This is sister from dad's first marriage and I hear she is not good to many and even can be bad to her Doctor/ husband and unappreciative of what she has and to others....anyway he would be very upset if he knew I felt I had to explain myself here and I need to learn that I do not cause I know what I have...Its private moments like this and many more that ones here posting bad about him do not see. He is very protective of our relationship...

He is very caring and has been through many tests unknown to him...Lina thanks and I think you are very knowledgeable....a very respectful young lady.....I think a lot of times people read these posts and like my son who is 23 said, people think this is american women or trashy women who can't do better for themselves so they go elsewhere to seek men and its just not always the case so that is reason I posted link to photos.....We are very happy and feel blessed and we both hope Allahe/God will continue helping us stay connected to one another.....Its hard believe me being away after the meeting and intimacy and living with someone you love but we are both trying to stay strong (him more so than me I think) but he tells me we have a long road and we can't allow ourselves to be sad and I have to be strong. He is right! Thanks again, Lina....Lisa
