I did reply earlier but it was not posted. I do not know why and this has happened to me many times before. In short - I wish you the best and my advice would be not to let your guard down at all. Keep researching, watching, listening. There may come a time when you are 101% comfortable with your man but there will always be unknown factors to deal with. This is how I have dealt with my relationship so far and this is what brought me to this site. My Egyptian man has never given me one ounce of doubt but I still need to keep my wits about me.

I have been through too much in the past with western men to let it happen again.

All the best.
