Thank you Aysha for your words. I live in the USA and I'm trying to let go. When I don't talk to him for days, he is relentless, calling my cell, my work phone, emails me like crazy. He is TOTALLY RELENTLESS. I talked to him on the telephone last night and he said when he comes to the states he will take care of me cause that is the muslim way. I told him I didn't have the money to fly to Morocco which is about $1,000 plus all the marriage documents needed which he said is $1600-1800, and of course it is me me me MEEEEE, who is to pay for all this.

Shame on me..I tested him, which is bad on my part I know. I told him I don't have the money for marriage translations,etc. anyway, I said are you broke again (He does not work) and immediately he asked me to wire him money...................And the reality check for me is, obviously he's not in a hurry for me to get to Morocco cause as long as I send him money, he's content, he WANTS TO SUCK ME DRY!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And I know if I continue with this man, I will be bankrupt, emotionally, spiritually, and possibly financially.

Thank you for your words, after reading this, I'm not contacting him any longer, but I'm not sure what to do cause he calls my place of work almost in a state of panic and I need my job badly. It is a good job too.

Thank you all for your heartfelt words, you've helped. I didn't know where to turn with all these thoughts racing in my mind, you've all helped me.

thank you again!
