Just my Honest opinion for what it is worth

Amy, In my honest opinion, through my experience with a Moroccan man that knows I am a single mom and sometimes have to watch what i spend, I want to say that i have concerns cause it has been just a few weeks and my man had feelings but it was not true love or talkjs of marriage in that short period of time. Love grows and I don't think in a few weeks time.

My other concern is with my man, his utmost concern was if i can afford the trip and it not put me in what he calls a distress or bad situation financially. He needs to put you and your children first and it sounds like he is not...but its just my opinion for what it is worth. Spend several months on cam and e-mails to watch his character and personalities and how he interacts in different situations. With Simo he still needed that assurance if he felt the same in person verses the cam and if you two will click once together. Get to know him in the year and see how he treats you or if he is obsessed, demanding,hateful,moody,how he treat others by listening to every word of his conversations.

Pick up on the small things that may seem unimportant at the time. Don't fall too quick cause if he loves you, he will wait for however long it takes for you to be sure about him and his culture. It sounds like he is rushing you...again my opinion and advice for what it is worth...and ones here say is hould be careful too and we have been together now past a year and marrying my next trip so you will not get a pat on the back here.....do like me...ask many questions and if he is eager to answer them without getting hostil and never give him money and he should NEVER ask you of this.

Even if you offer he would still refuse especially if he has you and your kids at heart.....Don't you agree? I wish you the best and hope it turns out to be genuine and I wish you much happiness in the future...Lisa
