Another American "supposed" to Marry a Moroccan Man

Submitted by Jill (United States), Oct 17, 2006 at 23:00

My dilemma is .............my Moroccan man is broke, does not work, so I call him all the time, I've sent him money. He wants us to get married immediately, we've known each other for 13 months, but he wants me to pay for all the translations of paperwork, the adul, etc. He told me for the process to get married in Morocco would cost us $1,800. I'm like, what? Besides the plane fare to Morocco, I'm to pay for all our expenses since he can't assist. I love this man as crazy as it may sound, but I feel like I'm being taken big time, BIG BIG TIME. He told me to get a loan from a bank, anything for he can't wait any longer for us to get married?

I'm blinded by love, can someone please give me advice. Be as strong and direct as you may need to.
