One night stand and caution.

Dear Mona,
Thanks for responding with your experience.
True,it's always better to be cautious as even a one night stand,memorable as it is ,could land one in trouble.There are health( physical as well as psychological) hazards such as tuberculosis along with emotional involvement and betrayal.Infections,not necessarily the STDs should always be thought of while dealing with MENA and Asian men and women.I apologize if I am in any way hurting you with my cautionary note but felt I should mention it.We all enjoy a fleeting experience of bliss only to repent later when the consequences emerge.There was a news article in the newspapers some time ago about a Russian woman meeting an Arab in a hotel ,they talked over a glass of wine at the bar and when the lady invited him over to her room to watch a game of football( there was a large screen in the bar itself and yet---),he--the seemingly decent Arab--took advantage and worse,had invited over a colleague of him to her room.These kind of one night stands with strangers can be very dangerous. Don't wish to pontificate but please be careful.
I am not sure if you are still in touch with him and it's really very difficult to read somebody's mind.Some men do like older women .How sincere and faithful they are is another matter. I am sure you are a strong woman and are quite capable of letting your brain rule over your heart.Looks do melt men and women both and in the magical moment one suddenly wants to marry the partner.What happens later is anybody's guess.
