Thank you Hannah -it is good you have posted your blog showing what lengths nthat these guys go to. You have had similar experience to many on here with Egyptian man. He will groom you, romance you give you a wonderful time when you go over to see him , involve all the family, who do treat you as one of their own. This is all part of the plan im afraid - i know i didnt want to think this.......but it is happening all too frequently now.
I love my husband still to this day -

My husband is still in touch with me . Athough, a nice person, i do not know of his true colours as yet. He asked me for money once - and i ignored it, but then it cropped up again larger amount stupid amount shall i say . They could live and not work for 5 years on the amount he asked for. You have spent valuable time and expense on this guy which is precious enough, but at least you had your head screwed on about the money. You have done your bit and it was taken advantage of, he wanted more, and that would not end there.

I am amazed at how many women give these guys money, to buy cars, business, land villas - its as though money grows on trees. We work hard for our money, as they do, but it is not something to scquander on status, and how big you look within the village.
You have had a lucky escape , mainly i think because, like me you have had a dependant. My family are more important and they come first, so to worry about how it would affect your son would have been keeping your feet on the ground. If i had been on my own , i would have gone and made a big mistake..

Good luck and i am sure a lot on here will identify with your story.
oh Is your guy from Luxor -? if so let people know - there will be another victim behind you.
