To Innocence - online romance

This story should be a warning to all those in an online relationship with a middle eastern man or any man for that matter. It is not a real relationship. It is only what you perceive as a relationship. Your post is full of "he told me" this and "he told me" that. Why have you taken it all on board when you have not experienced it personally with him yourself? It's only what he has told you - whether it be fiction or fact.

I realise that the on-line Egyptian man was a diversion whilst you were having problems with your husband but why do you still harbor guilt and expend energy over this man? Let it go and come back to the real world where you can actually put your feet on the ground and touch the grass. Please give your husband your 100% attention and delete this man from your mind and your life. I am sure that your husband will appreciate your actions in being true to your marriage.
