That is what they do - this is the game they play.

The marriage game.

I spent time in Morocco and heard stories of European women sending money to these men and then the relationship is over.

Listen, There are two types of marriages in Morocco - for the women - the one where you marry as a foreigner keep your human/civil rights under Moroccan law, and this takes longer and the other where you marry as an Islamic women, of course giving up your rights, that you would have had in Europe or the US.

I was there - you are being deceived - that guy cares little about you.

This is the new game - it is called marry a Westerner. A lot of Moroccan men marry Westerners and get deported back to Morocco for stealing and doing crimes, even as far away as Japan. These are the type of men that don't want to work and want to get everything for nothing. You are his ticket to ride.

What you are saying is so typical of what you hear in Morocco - it almost sounds strange to hear you say this.

One Dutch girl had a Moroccan boyfriend who wanted to marry her. She was to come to Morocco and bring the papers to start the 'marriage to a foreigner proceedings'. Her family must have talked sense into her and she came without the papers. I think they were calling her stupid (the stupid girl forgot/ didn't bring the papers) and the relationship was off.

You have to understand that a relationship with these guys is a business - these are 'Marriage Whores'. Not to long after, I was approached through a third party, to marry the same guy for money. You have to understand what you are dealing with.

Leave it alone.
