New here, but I have advice

Hi! I've read this forum before, and I figured maybe I'd start participating here to help give advice and insight into the world of these scammers. I have been around Islam for many years now, which means I have many stories. I won't reveal anything personal about myself, but I will say I have witnessed a ton of scams in my time around Islam. I am very well versed in Islam, and I can answer questions about that, as well as the religion too.

First of all, you're 37, correct? Your children are teenagers, preparing for the next phase of their life. I can tell you something. His family may have been nice, but it could very well be because they're in on the scam. Sons in Arab families have to uphold honor standards, like taking care of the family. He also wants to get you pregnant because in his mind, it's a guaranteed ticket to a green card.

Have you talked about religion at all? Did he ever claim to be religious? Did you witness the family praying, or him praying? Has he asked you about converting? If he hasn't, it's because he doesn't care about a real future with you. Sex before marriage in Islam is called Zina, which is punishable by flogging. The fact that he is 1. 29 years old 2. Having sex with someone older than him are very big red flags here. I can tell you for sure that despite him not saying this, your age is a problem. It's not normal in their culture to seek women older than them unless they want to use you for something. These men usually marry teenagers / cousins. I hate to tell you, but Morocco may have been beautiful, but the lies he is trying to mask as love are very very ugly. If you take this any further, it's guaranteed he will ruin your life, which in turn will trickle down to ruining lives around you, like the precious children you already have.
