Sense of humor

Neptune,
Thank you for your reply. I now have not heard from Judy (except in FB messenger on Nabil's page) but the last I heard they were in Ifrane, which is cooler. She got VERY ill 2 days after arrival and of course, Nabil had to be caretaker....hmmmm, could he have helped her illness along in order to be the "loving, caring, gentle man"? I know, I'm becoming very mystery writer-esq, but it is so in the realm of possibility. I mean, nobody knows him....at least nobody she knows and no one could ever find him if they had to. However, all that aside, they (he?) chose to travel from Casablanca to Ifrane in buses and taxis which was taking several days due to heat?? I researched and found that it's only like 300 miles +- and that Morocco has a well developed (if not always on time) rail and bus system. Now why would it take days???

She has sent me 1 FB message since the infamous 'bedroom scene' saying that if she needs me she will contact me!!! You can be I'm well pissed now....and since she is replying on his phone because I don't know how else to contact her...I'm wondering if her use of same is monitored so she doesn't find things he'd rather she didn't. I don't know. There again, he may be exactly what he claims, but that 27 year age difference just screams green card. If this is truly the love of her life, well I wish her all the best (kind of). AND, I'm betting that paperwork for his K1 is already in motion, or has been since before she ever left. He will arrive here, and in 90 days will marry her and she is trapped for the rest of her life.

Of course, he already knows she is diabetic and not in the best of health...which is a worry over there since she is famous for 'forgetting to take her meds on time), and already the food/heat has made her ill....for the whole first week she was there, but instead of staying in hotel where it's air conditioned til she was well, they took that epic road trip to Ifrane. How strange. Must have been hell puking, fever, and runs in taxis and buses.

Okay I've ranted on long enough. I'm sorry I use this site to vent, but nobody I know would understand my fears. My sister and friends are all aghast at the idiocy she is demonstrating and the complete lack of courtesy she has shown. Maybe I'm just pissed and shouldn't be. I'm trying to remain positive and hopeful for her, but feel that our friendship will be over no matter what. And if she doesn't contact me before her expected return with flight number and airline she will be finding her own way home from the airport which is 5 hours away!
