So right

As everyone here knows, my ex-friend Judy has fallen under the spell of her Moroccan svengali I believe. You are so right in your list of NO's. Judy is coming up on 61 next month, while Zakariae is 27 years her junior and as she is already not in the best of health, I worry about how she will be treated once he arrives in a country he really has no clue about, and there is nothing for him to do here except sit on FB while she works. She seemingly has not even thought about what will be when she is 70 and he isn't. I know her lifestyle and it is very sedentary and I doubt he will be the considerate, caring husband then...or even before because she's tired now so can you just imagine what an added person to take care of will do, especially as I'm doubtful if he will be the kind that will help with anything around the home, will expect meals to be cooked and served, and his every need seen to. It's a recipe for disaster. I know that she has distanced herself from me because she knows I know (even though she never says) that she is bringing him here.

I still care about her and wish that I could talk to her about this without her getting mad and telling me I have no business in her business. Well, that is true for sure, but I hate to see her - or anyone on this page - being scammed and left with not only a broken heart, but broken finances, and broken lives. I thank you all for the comments I read on here and wish I could get Judy to actually see what is right before her eyes..
Bless you all.
