To: Driven Crazy By a Moroccan Man and STLuigi (advice?)

Submitted by Flower (United States), Dec 14, 2009 at 14:27

this is Lisa's myspace page I have not contacted her, but if you do could you please post any advice she gives to you? So far, even though the guy I am interested in has not asked me for money or anything, I am not concerned. He seems like a very moral, stand up kind of guy. It's just that I am interested in a relationship and not just sex. Since I just met him a couple of months ago, and he has been visiting family in Morocco for the last month, I have only heard from him twice...and it hurts to think that either he's not thinking about me or has forgotten me altogether...as I fell for him pretty fast. I ignored his texts and calls for a couple of weeks, but when I finally went out with him..I fell for him. If he does contact me when he gets back, I want to know how I will know it's not just for sex. I know that sounds ridiculous, but since I am divorced (I was married for a long time) and I'm just not experienced in the whole dating world. Every bit of research on the internet turns up nothing but negative stories about Moroccan guys...it's scary. I will say this however, this guy is in the service industry, right before he left for Morocco, I left him a huge tip (3 figures). Now, listen...I have money...but I'm not rich, ok? I just wanted to help him. He tried to give it back to me but I got out so he couldn't do this. He did not want to take this, has not asked me for money and I just don't see him ever doing this. He has his green card. I just want to know how to get to the truth of his intentions. Or if there is such a thing as getting to the truth with a Moroccan guy.
