Just wanted to let everyone know that you can have a successful marriage being a Western woman married to a Muslim man. My husband is from Egypt, moved here because I would not move there, and wants to move back to Egypt. (Which I understand, his mother and father are getting older)

He has never hit me, never cheated on me. We have fought, as most couples do but without violence and I never once gave him money for anything. (Of course through marriage buying presents and things like that)

About 40-50% of marriages in the United States end in divorce. If anyone watched that show 90 day fiance - you could clearly see who was marrying for money, or a country.

Not all Mohamed's are the same. There are successful marriages between cultures, faiths and so on.

However most women with experience should know that if a man is asking you for money, no matter which way he frames it - He isn't the kind of man you would want to marry anyways because he certainly isn't READY to be a husband!
