Hello Susan:

How are you? Thank you for your response I appreciate it. If you do not mind I have some more questions. About Salma.... Did he show any hint of this behavior prior to her visit to USA? Do you know when she left Morocco for good? When there divorce was finalized? How do you know her?

You said you spoke to Abdel this weekend? Have you guys reconciled?

When I went to el Jadida there were three sisters in the home and one brother, baby and mother and father. Two lived outside. Yes the father owns a shop in the sook, we did go there daily.

You mentioned his mother was younger than the father, is there more to that story?

Simo as you call him, Mohammed as I know him did tell me about her and did admit to me that they had altracations. Many fights. Do you know about what? He said there plan though was to live in Morocco and only to visit the USA at the time.

I do know many people marry with the intention of a VISA although I know of many relationships that work out also. It is not uncommon. Ususally with older woman and younger men this is the primary reason but I also know that some truly have intentions of trying to make the marriage work. However the cultural differences usually present a big problem.

You said you talked to him many times on the web cam, how did that go? Sorry for all the questions and thanks again for taking the time to answer them.
