This blog is giving many examples of relationships not going so well. But there are also many relationships of intercultural couples who are very happy.
I wrote a book on this subject: My Husband is Egyptian (15 women tell their stories) by Annelies Ismail
All the stories are true and most of the women live in Egypt since many years.
I would agree however that a women 20 years or so older than the man should be aware that her habibi
probably is only interested in her money or the possibility to obtain a visa to her European (or American) country. After he has prevailed with his goal he will just drop her like a hot potato. I wish you all the best..
