I know my husband isnt Moroccan-he's Egyptian but this July we will be married for 5 yrs. This Oct we will have known each other for 6. We live a mile from my mom and very close to most my family. Anywhere from a mile, to 15 minutes to grandparents, to 20 minutes to my sister, to 1hr from another one, to 5 hours from 3 brothers in Louisiana and their family.

With the exception of work since we have crazy schedules, we do almost everything in life together and have alot of fun together pretty much daily. We make up words that only we know what they mean so when we want to say them to each other in front of my family -we both smile at each other and know our secret words. Or even if we are just sitting next to each other reading, I look at him and bat my eyes. When he plays arabic music in the house I try to dance even though I am honestly not a dancer at all! Sometimes I start rattling off every arabic word I know and it will totally lighten up the mood if hes stressed about something. Our usual bad situations are more like "attitudes about things"

However, we have our crazy stressed out moments but honestly our good days by far outweigh the bad ones.

I always love your posts about your husband, how you got together, how you have fun today, your pictures, your glasses, the whole deal!

My husband has been here for four years this month, and we've been married that long as well. We still like each other.

I met my hubby online in August 2008 and we were married in January 2009. He's been in the USA since Oct. 2009. As everyone else said, there are definitely cultural issues but all in all we have a good marriage. It takes time to learn about each other's little quirks and habits (especially cause we were 41 and 38 when we got married). I would say though, it's just like any other marriage basically. You have to have give and take to make it work. Also, even though we have different cultural backgrounds and religions, we both had similar educational and socio-economic backgrounds. I think that helps as well. Just keep in mind that no two marriages are the same whether they are from this country or not. Truthfully it's a crapshoot. Just keep the faith, and communicate. If it's meant to be it will work and if it isn't it won't!
