Question - (10 April 2011) 4 Answers - (Newest, 11 April 2011)
A female United Kingdom age 41-50, anonymous writes:

It's complicated, I fell in love with an Egyptian man. he is funny and kind and I love him with all my heart, but he is married. He married a woman to allow him to work in the EU as a doctor, and now she lives in her country and he is in England. They don't have any children and she is 43 while he is only 27 and he insists that he has never loved her, his parents do not even know he is married! They are also not married in the eyes of God. it's purely legal...so my question is....What do I do?

he is only 27

his wife is 43

you are are older than him - 30 /35

can you see a trend here.

seems like he likes the mother figures.

too fishy story and i think u know it.

"They are also not married in the eyes of God." news for you hun, HE IS MARRIED. whether legally or in church (btw he is Egyptian so he will not marry in church). so STOP MAKING EXCUSES, you know you are having an affair with a married man. is this what you want? what happens when you get knocked up witht he young doc's kid? then he disappears totally again.

foreign workers only want a good time, they disappear leaving total destrcution and leaving fatherless kids in their wake. this has happened in our country as well. the girls are totally foolish, they are blinded by lust for these foreign people and they destroy their lives. grandmothers have behaved in the same manner, they lose their respect and they are left with no money, no home and basically with only as stinking reputation.

i know of a situation where a foreign doctor hooked up with another person of colour, he used her and he knew that after 2 years he was going back to Germany. so he enjoyed 2 years with her, fed her lies and half truths and then he went away. for good. and he cared nothing of the pain, betrayal and devestation he left behind.

dont say you have not been warned.

I have to wonder how you can love someone who's

respect for marriage is so little that he can do

it for the sake of "convenience".

Tehnically speaking, the man is married and what

you are having is an affair.

I can understand that you may well be in love with

him but the situation will only get more complicated.

My personal view and advice to you is to get out now

before you get hurt.

This is verified as being by the original poster of the question

Because he is a jr.Doctor he must be married to a woman from the EU. I don't want to marry him yet and he only sees his wife once a year and then t's not a sexual relationhip, it's just a legality....is getting involved in this wrong?

Well. You didn't tell us what you want to do. Are you afraid he's lying? You should ask him to talk with his legal wife, that's all.

If you want to marry him, he will have to divorce following the laws where he lives and is married. If you want to marry him in a different country (let's say he's married in France) you probably can marry him anyway. Usually there is no international validation of marriage. Anyway it usually constitutes a violation to the law. You should talk to a lawyer.
