You wrote - "He is a sunni (sp?) and the rest of his family are shites (sp?) he is always reading about other cultures and very open minded."

Have you asked why he is Sunni and the rest of his family are Shiite? This will not be correct as families follow the one type of Islam. They pray together, go to the mosque together, celebrate religious holidays together, discuss religion together. Sunni muslims are more tolerant and this is why he has told you that he is Sunni. The Sunni muslims in Iraq were persecuted as the Shiites held power before the war and under control of Saddam Hussein. It would be unthinkable for him to be Sunni and the rest of his family Shiite.

Also he would not have had all the girlfriends etc that you have described - they would have been internet relationships only. As for being very sexual - he is using you! Sex before marriage is not permitted nor is any fooling around or internet sex.

You are being taken for a big fat ride and I wish that you would listen to the other comments on here. I am not going to be so nice as some of the others wishing you well - you will lose out big time if you let this continue. It would be a good idea to research Islam as well and the role that women play in a Muslim marriage.
