Maria, not sure if we are talking about the same man. I had a bitter experience with an egyptian man named Sherif Maher whom i had the misfortune of meeting online. He was a seasoned liar right from day 1. He lied to me about his age. He was 24 when we met online but he said he was 25. Not sure why he lied over JUST 1 year. I caught his lie when i added him on facebook. He was 1991 born and not 1990 as he had told me earlier. Anyway, that was just the beginning. He lied a million more times and each time denied things despite showing him the evidence.
Again, a sweet talker who said things like "I miss you. I love you and only you. Can't live without you. I want to marry you. I want to be with you forever. I will leave everything and come to you. You are my wife. I can't love any other girl" blah blah blah. I never really believed his words fully though. Firstly, they seemed too good to be true. Secondly, i kind of know how arab muslim men are, in general. They never ever take any "non-muslim" woman seriously. They may flirt, play and sleep around with foreign women but will NEVER marry any of them. And if they marry (especially egyptian men) they may do so just to escape from their poor country, for visa, money, job, sex, change from their boring life, etc.
Almost all of these muslim arab men get engaged at a very young age even as young as 21-23 years or atleast know whom they will marry (mostly a cousin). But continue to play with foreign girls online. They don't respect women at all. To them, women are just sex toys.
This guy was a compulsive liar and could win an oscar nomination for his brilliant acting skill. As days went by, I noticed that there was one arab woman (Ana A) who was constantly liking/ loving and commenting on ALL his posts and tagging him on ALL her posts on facebook. I found that kinda weird. When i questioned him, he said to me that she works in his brother's office. I felt he was probably lying. Why would a girl who works in his BROTHER'S office do this? So, I checked his brother's profile. And, it was clear to me that he had lied again as she did not like or comment or had any tags on his brother's profile. I later figured out that he was chatting with many girls at the same time and saying the same things that he had told me. He was on various dating apps too probably hunting for newer target to play with. When i contacted these girls through facebook, they confirmed that he was playing with them too and told them too "I love you. Marry me" etc. No wonder he never had time for me! He rarely called me and always gave excuses such as "I am tired" "I am busy" "I have hard work" "I am sick" etc.
When I confronted Mr. Sherif Maher with all the evidences, he got very very angry and told me that they were ALL lying and were just friends and co-workers. Nothing more. As I probed further and each time caught him lying, he slowly started to ignore my questions, texts and calls. Did not call me for 2 month after that as he probably feared he may have to answer more questions and cook up more lies. LOL.
Recently one of his friends contacted me through whatsapp. So, I called his friend and his friend told me that this guy was just playing with me and he already had an Egyptian girlfriend. Again when I confronted him, he got so angry. He first blamed me for trusting his friend. Then, he started swearing on his muslim god "Wallahi I don't lie" and said his friend was just joking (WOW!). Then, abruptly blocked me on facebook and whatsapp and disappeared on me like a coward. I guess he didn't have a face to show. LOL Anyway! Good riddance to bad rubbish.
