To Lisa on finality post--Moroccan man/American womanReader comment on item: Advice to Non-Muslim Women against Marrying Muslim Men Submitted by Straight_Talk_Luigi (United States), Nov 19, 2009 at 20:42 1) I am well aware of the unfair economics in Morocco. However, that is not an excuse to justify shady romantic relations. 2) You've got me confused about the computer situation, but I was referencing that you felt the need to check his accounts without his permission in a post earlier this year or back in late 2008. I don't really blame you for that, Lisa, but I really think you need to stop and think of what that means before you go shouting on here that you love him. 3) I am sorry to hear about Simo's struggles in Morocco. It sounds like he's not getting a just wage, and that is unfortunate. However, Lisa, it's imperative for me to make women aware of what is going on here and one of the tricks is to exaggerate their situation. I really don't think a man who's family has medical bills or is struggling to survive would have the change to invest in a pay-only computer at an internet café to talk to women in other countries. I would say Luigi do you know 100% all your posts to these women including myself is FACTS? What I say on here is backed up by careful observations, and yes even FACTS. Here are some facts: 1) You met Simo on-line and married him after a few brief visits 2) Even though you and Simo talked on-line for 14 months, there are diminishing returns with on-line communication. There's only so much you can learn from a person that way, and it goes down a lot if they are lying, and in many scenarios, that is the case. 3) On-line communication is not nor will ever be the same as a real date 4) Distance is a barrier in relationships 5) Scammers prey on the spontaneous, because spontaneous people make rash decisions. No you do not. When you read something from a poster and if its positive, you try and twist everything to be negative, (just like the computer thing) Its your opinion, not a FACT and certainly not EVIDENCE. I really don't see how talking about, much less bragging about your relationship on-line to strangers, defending your man's culture, religion, ethnic origin or race is a positive characteristic. You don't know say even my husbands intentions. You don't know him. Do I know 100% his intensions? No (only he and God Knows) and I know him way more than you, but you like to cast doubt and judgment . Lisa, people break off relationships all the time without fully knowing someone or their intensions. That's why if someone usually gets a whiff that something does not feel right or has unnecessary risks, they break it off. That's just being and acting normal, and since you have not done that by rushing into marriage with Simo, you have to aggressively defend yourself on here hoping that your anger instead of the facts surrounding your situation will Since when is executing common sense doubt and judgement? I'm not judging anyone, Lisa, and I don't have to know him to venture what he could be up to. You've supplied more than enough information to me over the last several months. (But your religion is better when it is a sin to judge & its not your place to judge) If you think my religion is better, you're welcome to join anytime. Feel free to bring Simo and the kids along too J We can never be sure we can only hope that a person tells us the truth and only themselves know themselves and actions or how strong they can avoid temptations that are cast their way. It also holds true for myself and also for you or anyone....So for you to say things to me or any woman that has only posted positive on this board, you make unjust accusations to cast all these men in the dark. I do not think that talking about your relationship on-line, much less defending or bragging about it, is positive. By simply coming on this site and bringing it up already arises suspicion and doubt. When's the last time you've seen a happy Muslim couple on here? I've never seen it. So, Lisa USA, your accusations are absolutely wrong. You don't know, you speculate. Some situations are more obvious than others. However, Lisa, people end relationships all the time without fully knowing, mainly because there is something undesirable about their partner or they just are not a good fit. So, the excuse that "you are not 100% sure" just won't fly here. Why do you do this to people's lives when you can't be positively sure. Because Lisa a lot of this is common sense. I think that a lot of women already know the answer before they even come on here, they just cannot reconcile their instincts and mind with their hearts. It's understandable, but it helps to have an objective party (like me) to help them sort things out. Why are you so concerned about these ladies marrying the wrong men and crusading on this board concerning Arabics and Islam when you don't care to be on some American board persuading the hurt and scammed women about the American Scum? 1) I am not aware of any such forum on Americans 2) I am also not aware of Americans scamming people from other countries via marriage other schemes to leave the country and live there. I suppose it's because America is one of the best (in my opinion the best) place to live and it's easier for Americans who wish to live aboard to do via diplomatic channels. I use this since you are in USA like me??? Why are you on a rampage to convict all these men? (Innocent until proven guilty) In most stories on here, there is plenty of evidence to suggest what these men are up to. All it takes is an objective point of view and a little common sense. Why your interests on Arabics when we have women in our own country being raped, beaten, killed, scammed of money from American men. My interest is in the format of this blog because I know I can help people on here. It does not matter what race the person is. Also, there's not much I can do about murder and rape. Minus a citizen's arrest, I'm more of an investigator than an enforcer. Most of the murders in this country seem to be drug/domestic disputes, and as for rapes, well, many times women don't report that. There are just as many UK, Canadian, Phillipine, other cuture women on here than Americans to try and "SAVE". I just wonder why you spend so much time on this board trying to protect women from Arabics I'm trying to protect people from liars and scammers and I have said numerous times such deceit is not limited to Arab people. Get people on here to talk about American men and foreign Nigerian, Russian, Latino and Asian women and my advice would be the same. when you can't protect them from their own kind. I have an interest to be here. Im married to an Arabic and my husband is insulted when you land on a board like this and read ALL these men are the same and scum. That is rarely said on here for two reasons: 1) All comments are screened before posting and 2) Most of the posters on here know better I would say, Lisa the larger problem by far is that you take what people say personally and think the mere mention of something insulting pertains to you and that you and Simo are a victim. Your first instinct is usually to retaliate. If you were so secure, such comments would not bother you at all. You post your remarks about me posting here hoping it will run me off just like you tried to do with Isis and Lina. I have not tried to run anyone off, and I'm not so sure I could run either Isis or Lina off if I wanted to. They're pretty strong women. Have your board. Again, this is not my board. Its full of accusations and not based on most the countries even mentioned here that the women are even involved with. Im tired of feeling a have to defend myself after you post wrong things about me or my husband. I think you feel the need to defend yourself because you are not secure in this relationship. I think, ultimately, it has more to do with your feelings for Simo than what I or anyone else says. You will pay for your actions in the end disrupting lives and playing God. That's nice, but I don't see it that way. You have your wish. Im fed up hearing your garbage and lies. Post whatever about me and Simo cause I PROMISE you have a field day with it, cause I am sick of reading what you have to say. I will not be back to read it. These women will find out for themselves. 1) I doubt that you and Simo will be referenced very often since things tend to go by a case by basis here 2) For someone who is sick of me, you sure have paid an awful lot of attention to what I say, even when it was not addressed specifically to you. I still wonder if you've logged more hours on-line with me than with Simo ;) 3) I agree that most women on here will find their own way, but they sometimes just need that objective point of view and they often struggle with the on-line communication.
