You'll pull thru this, be strong II

Christy, I was also his sugar mamma. I paid all his bills. I set up phones for him, put him on my insurance, almost bought him his dream car. I helped him get his driver's license in this country. I taught him English (so I thought). Come to find out, He already knew English. I also took care of his family's (mom dad sisters)needs.Many nights and days I went without food and medical care because I gave him everything. He coerced me to give him all my passwords to every type of online account I had.

Christy, for two years I was with him. It took me two years to heal. It's hard, but you'll do it. I saw and learned first hand about this culture. I'm not going to bash it, but it's not a life for a Western raised woman. I hope they let my first post thru. After you say those words to yourself, spit on the ground because that anger will heal you. Don't pine, weep, or beg for him. Pick yourself and life up and greet tomorrow. See a happy future without him, don't look to the past to remember him, only remember what you have learned. Today, I don't think they're all awful creatures, but I steer clear of romantic relationships with them. They are such physically beautiful men, and so romantic, and today they fall all over themselves to catch my attention. I love nothing more than to say, "thank you, your words are so kind" and walk away from them. It's a good feeling. T

hey know they're charming and beautiful and in my experience, women don't usually turn down these offers of bliss romantic exciting love. They are the greatest actors in the world. If you know Arabic, just evesdrop on their conversations. They are not flattering conversations. Sometimes I like to shock them and let them know I speak their language and understand them. Probably, 2 in a thousand in my city have slight respect for me. I know many many Arabs. If I survived, I know you'll survive. I know now, that I was brainwashed and abused into thinking I loved him. There are some loving Arab families, but in my experiences, even those families have some serious deep rooted male ego driven chaotic twisted messes.
