I'm Turkish, American born and raised. My religion is christian. But my Uncle in Turkey married my aunt on my side of the family. He treats her the same way he did when they first married.. He is Muslim, but does not treat her rude at all. After a 30 year marriage my aunt has a damaged hip and everyday he goes out with her holding her so they can go out for a nice walk after dinner and we end up being a happy family. Then my father who was white treated my mom like shit. My mom was extremely intellectual and my dad was to ignorent to explain his feelings. My mother basically died hating my father and I lost a mom at age 7 because my dad was a selfish drunk. Then my dad still acting the same basically gave himself a heart attack and hos selfish way yet again ruined my life and I had to raise my self at 16.

The fact of the matter is that all males give a hint to who they really are in the beginning of the relationship. Now I don't like pointing fingers but I have seen many relationships fail due to this whether they were American, Turkish, German, or Eskimo. It comes down to how they were raised....To be blunt, you ladies do it to yourself, you are attracted to douche bags. Sorry, and I will await an arsenal of hateful comments but it is true. I have stood up to navy seals who treat women like crap and in front of me and the girls just go "oh he's having a hard time"... No he's no,t he is a douche and cares for you not. Next time he is too wussy enough to talk about his feelings and ignore you for having your own ideals throw your wedding ring at him and take your kids and go. He'll give you the most surprised look ever. It's not healthy to be treated like that by anyone.

The only way he is going to get that picture is by doing just that. You deserve to have an opinion and while most turkish guys are decent, you will always have a bad guy regardless of religion race or sex. I hope everything works out for you.
