I would say that a great number of the people that you encounter will be suspicious of your relationship solely based on stereotypes...you will save yourself much trouble by getting used to that now.

Hopefully those who are important to you will understand your true intentions. Those are the people you should be concerned about.

It is a fact that a significant number of MENA relationships will not last. There could be many reasons for this, but often the MENA man's intentions are not honorable. Because of this, there are many people who will assume that *your* relationship is a scam as well. There is nothing you can do to change that. Only you know what is in your heart, and if it is real, then who really cares what others say?

I think the OP is saying "not all MENA men are bad" and "if you're happy with your MENA man, please say so here."

Really not such a bad idea for a topic, even if it spun off the ongoing trainwreck in the other thread.

So I will answer the OP -- yes, I'm very happy ! My husband is the best thing that ever happened to me.

I have to say that since my husband has been here I certainly don't see any red flags, and I have never been happier.

I wish there was something someone could do to stop this insane tactic of using women (or men) for a green card. It is pure evil and heartless.

yes i agree with JP...the wording that hayati used was just a little confusing...

Hayati...u have to know too this is what women do...kinda like ''man bashing'' when we are upset...truth is...we love and when we get hurt it's like "all men suck"...not just mena men...ALL OF THEM...hehe...they don't actually and lots of us do have wonderful relationships....everyone is just trying to offer tammy (on the other post) support b/c she is really hurting ...

just like all women are NOT good...there are some men that are bad also...not all...by no means...

So I am adding with JP...i have no complaints (well...a few...but tedious)...hehe...nothing that can't be worked out...but I also have been hurt and used and cheated on...so I can feel the pain that tammy feels from the other post...

Trust me, it wasn't meant that ALL of you guys are bad...I am sure your Lisa picked a sweetheart--she seems like a sweetheart too....no worries....

YOU ARE RIGHT BROTHER, ALHAMDULLILLAH! ALHAMDULILLAH! ALHAMDULILLAH!

I am so happy you posted this! Good for you brother, may you have many blessing in your marriage and may you be the inspiration of all good men to stand up and say, "I love my wife!"

Cheating doesn't only happen with MENA men, just take a look at the Americans, they are pretty good at it too. It is just the person, not where they are from. My first husband was an American, and he was cheating all over the place. Most of the women I know who been through this have been married to Americans. That said, not all American men cheat either, we have some great men. Knowing someone for a long time and in person is no guarantee that you will have a wonderful marriage either. So meeting someone online isn't the deal maker in my opinion. I used to think that you had to meet someone in person and do the normal "western thing" dating and getting to know one another, but as we can see by our divorce rates in this country, that isn't working either. It is between the two people, period, nothing in this life is guaranteed, just love and give it your best. It is people, period, some are just #######.

The bad stuff does happen. In fact, I've seen way too much of it happening lately.

And as others have said, you will be judged unfairly by some people because of what some men have done. There's no way to avoid that. But if the people who are closest to you and your wife believe in you, their opinions, and God's opinion, are the only ones that matter.

My husband doesn't post here, but I will say that marrying him was, without question, one of the best decisions of my life, and I'll leave it at that.

Ironically I did not meet my husband online. (I say ironically because I live on the computer, well, that is til my laptop breaks lol:)

And I'm a mena wife and yes I am happy with him. He's the best thing that has ever happened to me and I make dua everyday that we get togetehr soon.

People will stereotype and for some reason...maybe it's because I deal mainly with Arabs I dunno...but arab men get a bad reputation about everything under the sun. Well, I do believe that there is a reason stereotypes exist but not all arab men are bad. Certainly not because I married one:)

Bdut it reminds me of what my husband told me before he left to go back to Palestine. Peole will talk always but it is the most important that the husband and wife stick together and trust each other and that is what is important. And if both of us did not believe that, there is no way we'd still be married today. Because both people...arab and american....love to use the biggest muscle in the human body. Nope, not the heart but their stupid mouths:(
