Submitted by Sofie (United States), Mar 19, 2007 at 14:10

Hi! I am married with a muslim guy for about 4 years, he is from a good family and has a good economical position on his country, he came here to USA to be with me but he is not comfortable in this country because his economical situation is dificult here. I love him and he loves me and tries to give me everything that he cans, but he wants to get back to his country after he gets his Citizenship that is going to be very soon.

I don't know what to do because he wants me to go back with him to Egypt but I don't want to do it. When we are there he is diferent, he tries to control me in everything and his family does not like me much.

I am catholic and I have no intentions to change my religion, i don't like Egypt even when I know that we will have a better economical situation there. Somebody can advise me what to do? I don't want to lose him, but I don't wnat to be miserable in a country where the people do not accept me as I am.
