This is very sad.I would not know what to do but the ladies are right.Find out if your marriage legal if not pick yourself up and move on.He is not worth your love,your time or tears.But yes I am paying for my ticket,he is renting the flat and everything else.Sometimes you get a bad one but in time your heart will heal and the memories of him will lessen and you will find happiness again.I am sorry you are going through this nothing is worse then being betrayed by the people you love but he will get this back on him a thousand times over.And as far as his mother and uncle I am sure they are not the only three members of his family and someone can help him for a half an hour so he can come chat with you and a few minutes call every other day nobody going to kick the bucket.I wish you well and I wish you peace of mind and a lifetime of happiness.

I have paid for all of the plane tickets and will be paying for my visit in June, his way coming over here when he has the visa and possibly another visit in January if he has his interview then - until recently he was making zero money as a fulltime student and even now makes very little, so it is too much to ask him to pay $1400 for a R/t ticket JFK-KTM. He does not ask me for anything else and we are husband and wife and are here to take care of each other.

Just a quick question for all the American women, did you pay for your plane ticket over to see your love, or did he pay for you? I understand they are from poor countries, but I am not that rich either, and not a sugar mama. Just really interested, because I have a husband in Egypt, whom I never talked to, but I paid for the plane ticket to see him and now i am paying all of this off working myself to an early grave. I guess I am a little old fashion and would like the man to take care of some of this, but maybe that is not the way things work. So please share with me who pays for what and did you feel kinda of mad if you have to pay all the bills, is it almost like buying a husband. That is how i feel now.

I paid for my ticket to go and see him and he paid all the expenses to support me while I was there. He paid for his own ticket over here and sent me money, while we were waiting for the visa, to help pay my bills. But, my husband doesn't come from a poor country and he had a good job before coming here so maybe it was easier for him than for some others who come from poor conditions.

I guess you have to think about these things before getting married. If you want a man to support you from the beginning of the marriage then you should choose a man who is capable of doing that. It's probably not realistic to want that while you know he lives in a poor country, doesn't have a good job or will have to be out of work for a long time, waiting to get a GC.

If you have a husband in egypt, why does your flag say Kuwait?

My husband was poor farmer who was trying to do the best for his family (kept nothing for himself). He did want to pay for things and anything small he did, but he couldn't afford my ticket to see him, and he had to borrow money to get here

we tend to split everything since we're both (pretty much) in the same financial situation right now. When I was going back and forth to visit my husband in Paris for awhile, I would buy my plane ticket (which, at student prices, was dirt cheap) and he would pay for meals and things while I was there. it was pretty even. i paid for his plane ticket here and he paid all of the visa costs.

but if you're going to keep calling him your husband, you might try to keep in better contact with him...

I have paid for plane tickets and hotels and then sometimes we were with his family and I always ate great food free and took taxis and car rides free

I am pregnant so I guess I paid for a husband and a baby. 2 for 1 LOL LOL LOL

Holly I have an Algerian in my uterus LOL LOL LOL

Well, my husband is an engineer and making a middle class salary in Iran. That means approximately $400.00 per month. That is a middle class salary for that country.

Before my husband and I were married, we met in third party countries like India and Thailand. This was due to the fact I could not get an individual tourist visa for Iran, nor he for the USA. So at that time, he paid for his own tickets and also paid for all accomodation, food and train/bus expenses.

He paid for my plane ticket to Iran and my ticket out of Iran.

He gave me $2000.00 to pay for my first month/last month and security deposit in USA

He pays for all phone calls

Now with the idea of his AP taking so long and my coming to visit him...He wants to give me some money to pay for my rent while I am visiting him. He will also pay for his own airline tickets if he has to come meet me again in India or Thailand.

Given the fact he makes so little...I think he has demonstrated he's willing to pay for more than his fair share. It has also proven to me that is willing to incur some financial hardship to be with me.

Don't think I am taking him for a ride either....I paid for immigration fees, taken a loss income because I have taken time off to see him. I will pay for his ticket to USA. I will be responsible financially for both of us until he gets on his feet in USA.

I made a mistake a while back and thought someone really cared for me, when in fact that was not the case. I was broken up about it and was a mess. Hesham and I were friends way before I was involved with this Egyptian man, Hesham is also Egyptian but has lived in America and is currently living in Kuwait. It was way over for me and that Egyptian man when I heard from my old friend Hesham, whom had gotten a divorce and well things happened and we married. Big difference, Hesham pays for lawyers and plane tickets. Why does this mean something to me? Not sure, but it works better for me, I have nothing evil or mean to say for women who pay for their own tickets, but personally for me, I feel more comfortable with the man handling the business. That is just me, everyone has a different outlook on this, and if you are happy, than I am happy for you. So yes I do have the Kuwait flag up since that is where Hesham lives. We are filing in Egypt since if we filed in Kuwait his ex-wife would have to go back to Egypt. Hesham knows all about what happen to me the first time, and we have talked about it. It is so sad to see women tearing each other apart on this forum, how can we even think of world peace when we as mature women cannot come together and support one another. If you don’t like someone, don’t respond to them. Why engaged in nasty comments, I am too busy working and worrying about my own life to engage in someone else’s drama. Hesham always asks how our the ladies at MENA, you fighting with them. He thinks the whole thing is funny, but it makes me sad. Maybe we should follow the golden rule, if you have nothing positive or supportive say, keep it. Is it worth it to battle people over silliness?

That's not the golden rule BTW

I kept my cool and kept it all bottled up as usual. Currently in search of an area rug.

What kind/look? I am so glad Ammar never has done anything like that. Probably due to his father owning a carpet/curtain/etc shop. But, then again, last week he managed to break part of the couch frame by placing all of his weight on a tiny part of the arm. It's not noticable, but who does that?! Sigh. He also set down a blazing hot pot straight off the fire onto the counter, but luckily I freaked out as I saw him do it and he pulled it off before it burned the counter.

I saw a nice, neutral, inexpensive area rug on the World Market website that I may go check out after work.

Husbands are kinda like naughty pets who pee-pee on rugs.
