In my opinion age matters and this is a big age difference. Relationships and marriages normally do not work with this much of an age difference. I personally couldn't see myself with someone that's 10 years or more younger than me. I'm in my late 30's but it will feel like to me I was with my son. Just saying. This is a red flag as it's becoming known that there's not many good jobs in Algeria even with a degree. They want to escape this life but the way they do it is just wrong!! Any MENA men I say be cautious with. Algerian men are giving it all right now to get out of Algeria. They are quite the actors and will deceive you without a second thought. I say get out of the relationship and dump him before he does you. Once they get that green card if it's the USA they leave you immediately. You're left with a broken heart and a broken bank account too.

All this is very expensive because you will be the one paying for most of it. Seeing him ,getting him here ,visa ,plane tickets, and then you have to apply for a work visa and it's expensive too. They can't work for 6 months. You are responsible for them whether they stay with you or not. That could last up to 10 years. It's too much of a risk and you're reading about thousands of failed relationships and marriages. You know the 27 year old American guy wouldn't ask for marriage from a woman 25-30 years older than him. He would accept the sexual relations if she's attractive but that would be the end of it. This needs to be thought about with serious caution. Good luck to you.
