In the last three months I met a Turkish man...he is young, 25 and is studying for his PHD. I am older than he is. this did bother him at first but now not. I have met his friends, he makes me feel very special. Recently we moved in together, I find him very sweet and kind. He says he loves me and I believe him. He also says he will never leave me.

I see the jealously and understand loyaltly is very important to him, as it should be in any relationship. I must say after reading many of these postings It somewhat made me uneasy. I would not like to see him as a player, but honestly, I met him online, he pushed for this relationship. He was chatting with other people, although he told me he was not, then he told me he was just playing around. He deleted his chatting accounts and pictures, am I being foolish? Can't even believe I am asking this, as I felt fine before reading a lot of the comments. He says he loves me... ?
