I might have a similar story with a Turkish guy

I have recognised the conduct of my friend (I will not call him my boyfriend because I am trying so hard to forget what happened to me). Seeing all these comments on this blog, and especially yours, I suddenly realised that I am the only one who really fell in love while my Turkish friend just pretends to be in love with me. Maybe they are taught to cheat women and not only. However, can you say that all Turkish men or Muslim men are alike, and that women should avoid in general entering a relationship with a Muslim man? For me, the situation is clear and I do not want to continue or to repeat the same mistake. But maybe there are some other cases when people love each other and believe in their consciousness.

On the other hand, I am Romanian and such bad behaviour that everybody mentioned here is more often met to Romanian men as well, who pretend to be Christian, but they are Christians only by their name. That is why I have looked for affection to a Turkish man who acted actually more like a Romanian man.

Maybe there is a general eclipse of the heart and that makes all of us unhappy and guilty as well.
