Thanks for sharing.

First of all, who is "you people?"

Have you ever considered that perhaps that it is not us scaring your but your situation? It's one thing to talk to someone on-line, it's another to fly to their country and meet them.

I can understand how you are attracted to this man. But you know what, Ginny? All the scammers on here tell their girlfriends they are gorgeous. And the pictures? They can easily be faked.

So, he already has a visa. Interesting. So, then, why is he meeting Western women on-line? Why doesn't he just come to your country? He obviously can afford it.

I really think he could be lying about having a visa.

What you are missing out on? Well for starters, you seem to think that you looking nice for your age means the difference is okay? Hardly. I have no doubt you are an attractive women, but most of the women on here also describe themselves as such.

On googling Moroccan marriage: I did the same. This particular blog did not come up. In any case, you took the time to ask for advice. Also, please note that this site does not use or show up in any "pop-up" windows.

What's the catch: The catch is that is relationship seems to moving in the direction of a quick marriage. You're already digging up information on Moroccan marriage, which suggests to me that you two are thinking about getting married....is that what is scaring you, Ginny?

Listen, however you got here, Ginny, asking for third-party confirmation about a marriage or relationship is a bad sign.

I hope you'll share more information with us now that you're on here, but please understand, Ginny, that international dating can be a real big headache. The idea of a free trip to Morocco may sound appealing, but it won't be fun if he is going to pressure you into a marriage.

And who knows? Maybe's he so rich because other women send him money. Perhaps even some who read and post on this site?

These are the possibilities that you MUST consider. Simply ignoring them will not make them go away.
