Happily Married to an Egyptian!

I am also happily married to an Egyptian! We met online, didn't mean to be more than friends. We've been married over 2 years, and been together over 3. He was a few months away from his visa when I met him, he just now joined the army so he could've gotten it that way. And in the 5 years he's been in America before he met me, he has NUMEROUS offers from Egyptian woman willing to marry him just to get him citizenship, but he didn't want that, he wanted love. With that said, probably some do just want a visa, but they're is ways to get it without having to trick an american woman into loving them, i think most of them are compassionate enough to let you know up front what they are looking for... but some might be bad, but that goes for every kind of person from every background.
