Hi Fiona,

Please think long and hard before committing to this moroccan man, I know that you say that you love him, I was in exactly the same position as you but i have decided to cut lose asnd not marry him, the way i see it if he truly does love me then he will make every effort to come over to the UK and prove his true love, instead of me going over to morocco all the time. There is 27 years difference between our ages. And i feel that all he wants me for is a meal ticket and green card.

Yes, at first he pressed all the right buttons with me and made me feel so beautiful and loved, but hey when i am 75 old and wrinkly will he feel the same because he will be 47 and in the prime of his life. I dont think so!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I will admit that i did enjoy my time over there but its just a pipe dream. When you look at things in the cold light of day, hey who are we kidding, only ourselves.

Also as time went on his words got more demanding to me and he wanted me to change much, well sorry this woman aint gonna do that for any man let alone a 27year old who is younger than my son.

I will have my memories of my time with him but now i will have my own self worth.

I do wish you all the luck in the world and at the end of the day it is your choice.

take care xxxxx
