To Just_Me - going nowhere

" ...About him having land in another city, of course I think maybe he has a wife there. I may be young, but I am thinking logically with this and with my brain, not my heart. I spoke with him on the phone yesterday (he was on his land) and he was with his guy friends, I heard them in the background and he even teased about me talking to them, although they don't speak English."

This paragraph says it all! His male friends would have been teasing your Egyptian friend about having a "second" wife. If his friends cannot speak English then he is living in a village to the north of Cairo. I assume this because you said that you were Alexandria. Yes, you are young but you are not thinking with your head. I am a western woman living in Egypt and I see the conning of western women happening every day.

Believe me, this relationship will go nowhere and only cost you money , time and anguish.
