I really dont know what to do.Please help, my family dont approve they think hes just doing it for a ticket to the UK and my friends think its stupid but he told me if i wanted to move to turkey with him that would be great but if i didnt then he would leave his family behind and move to the UK just so he could be with me. I dont know if he is just doing this to get to the UK as he is talking about trying for a baby and marriage already.

I have met a lot of Turkish people in their own country. I have also lived in the Netherlands. It has been my experience that certain unprogressive Turkish people, coming from the poorer part of the country and having less education, can be extremely aggressive and manipulative, AND are not to be Trusted. BE VERY CAREFUL. My apologies to the larger part of the Turkish people, but I believe they would support this response as tehy probably know who I am refering to.
He is moving WAY too fast. If it sounds too good to be true, it is.

Don't let him talk you into moving things too fast. You barely know this guy. How could he possibly "love" you already? I'd be very suspicious. You can remain in contact with him if you want but keep this relationship at arms distance for several more months. Then after 6-8 months if he's still "mad" about you, maybe he could come to the UK on a work visa so your friends and family could meet him and form better opinions about him. Then you'd be living in the same city and able to determine what he's really all about. It would also give you a chance to spot any potential dangers before you get swept away. My concern is he's moving awfully fast, already talking babies and marriage and about you moving to turkey. How many women have been abducted by strangers they thought they could trust? Think about things very carefully. You know very little about this man so don't let his flattery blind-side you to logic. Be safe.
