I understand how it must be with your maroccan man, it is hard to let them go, but its the best for your own well being and future. Are you married to him? how did you meet? was he already citizen in Canada? no kids?

My ex too would go out alone to all hours of the morning and then sleep all day and he would get texts from girls (just friends) while he was sleeping. It wasn't very often but it drove me crazy. He also would drink when ever there was alcohol around, and smoked alot and weed. He was always in a bad mood and had mood wings all the time maybe due to the weed. In general i felt guilty alot and everything was my fault, noway could I get my point across, or talk rationally. Towards the end it got worse and he had to leave the country back to marocco. I know he was stressed out about his life and being able to stay here and maybe that contributed to his behaviour. He didn't ask me to go with him he said i wouldn' t like it there and a while back he had asked me to marry him and i refused with all the problems already i didn't fully trust him at the time.

He is now seeing an american girl there who he met there, I don't know what he has planned with her, but he still talks to me sometimes and says he has no fellings for her so using her I guess. Apparently these people would do anything to leave the bled and the misery.

I hope you feel better and please don't let him get you down. Try to think of plan to leave him and start a new life elsewhere. I know its hard but at least try even if you just get away for a while, go stay with a friend or family and come back down to earth to reality and you will see eventually that this relationship is not right and feel stronger to do what you have to. Feel free to write here when ever you want to let off steam.

Take control of your life, go to a church or meeting and seek help too, that helped me.

Warmest wishes
