If he doesn't want to visit anymore then that sounds like the end of the road and he is not as committed as it seemed.
Yes, focusing on yourself and career and well being is important now.

You never know if after a few months break away from it all you may both find the strength for a second round.
Perhaps he will miss you and change his mind, if not then he was not meant for you to begin with and

you are better off without him. This visa stuff is not easy and can make or break a relationship.

I wish you the very best for your future whatever that may be (F)

I'm not really surprised by this. 1) Really short visit 2) Haven't met after that and it's been over 2 years 3) The embassy you are dealing with 4) You waited to file SO late that it messed it up

It should be 2 years from the time of filing but approval is at the CO's discretion. However, by what you stated above, you met for about a week in March 2014 and haven't met again since then. The C

Well, I want him here in Morocco with me, I have a good life and I really don't need none of that complicated stuff for at least a few years! He's not interested in visiting my country anymore at all, so it's done for me. I've also had enough with the paperwork and visa stuff, I need sometime for me to focus on my career and well being. But thank you for your understanding, I appreciate it!!!!!

I think you have answered your own question. Time to move on.

Well, a break is all we both need from this experience, he's very committed to our relationship and we both can't live without each other and we'll try to figure things out in the future we're still young and we made it this far, we can't give up on each other and simply throw this away, he means so much more to me that I'm willing to push through this and hopefully when we're both calm and out of this shock we can at least travel together somewhere and spend some time, god knows how much we've missed each other and had high hopes on an approval but everything will fall into place eventually I strongly believe that! And like you said this is hard, but not impossible! It's just that Morocco is tough on people in comparison to other countries! We will see what the future will bring for us.

Your situation is admittedly unusual for Morocco, can only remember a couple of male petitioners and none that went against cultural norms.

Bear in mind the limited contact and what you did have being so long ago would cause issues pretty much everywhere.

Well, we won't give up after all we've been through!

We recently got out approval - I front loaded a hefty I-129f package to the point that for the interview he went with another block of evidence and the CO laughed and told him not to worry that she had enough. It is a tough process - you lose patience, at times anxiety gets the worse out of you - God knows I was a nervous wreck. We met December 2015 I visited Casa in April and a week after I submitted the papers. I spent there 10 days. I would have visited again if it wasn't because I have lots of responsibilities at work and a daughter to care for.

It is difficult but not impossible. You have mentioned several times you are young - think where your futures collide - and realize that a battle that is. It fought cannot be won. I know that I would jump at the opportunity of getting on a plane and visiting Morocco again-
