Cold f eet,
If he can not afford the internet how can he afford keeping a " private" facebook account ? What 's the point of having one if he can't use the internet? In my opinion this is a very big red flag. Why don't you create a secret fake account with a fake attractive female photo and try to connect to his account? In this case he might accept your friendship so you can see what is going on in there:-)
The fact that he keeps you out of his personal "stuff" is red flag!!!!

".....he cant afford the internet......He hasnt texted me I would say in over a year. Why? He cant affor it........he is kind of poor and I know it.........he said if I go there and we like eachother, he will sell his condo and follow me here to the United States, we can get married, and then his family will help him out with some money so he can open a business or buy us a house, so he can take care of me."

Now, This guy hasn't any money at all even to afford internet or a cellphone right? So, in USA how much does it cost to start a business & to buy a house & to look a family? If he is so poor do you think that his condo in Jordan one day can cover all these? What kind of " promises" does he give you?

Also, it is very well known the fact that over there, You are NOT allowed to stay in his house if you are not married , so why is he telling you such things? He doesn't look serious to me. In my opinion you should forget him! I know it is hard . Take it as a life's lesson and move on. This is an internet relationship which seems real to you but NOT to him. All those arabs who stay late nights & long hours over the internet chatting are not trusted & reliable men! FORGET HIM! The time will heal your wounds cold feet. You deserve better!!!!

Blessings
