Would his family accept you?

Dear Lorraine,

Firstly a muslim man is prohibited from living with a women unless he is married to her islamically (this doesnt have to be legally).

If you married this man your future mother-inlaw would expect to see the bed sheet you slept with your husband on with blood stains (from your virginity).

Although a muslim man may tell you its ok for you not to convert to Islam, he will still have expectations of you as a wife. If you had guests over you would be divided into two (women in one room and men in other).

Are you sure he doesnt want a visa into your country?

Trust what your gut instincts tell you if something feels wrong then it probably is

Most importantly remember a muslim man will ALWAYS stay a muslim. Think about the future you cannot be living a christian life with a muslim man.
