2. Ever been told…?
I live in Egypt and there are some very kind and gentile men. Respectful. I have received too many marriage proposals, and refused all of them, why, the way of life is too different and their mother’s can be a pain to say the least. The women are a bigger problem more than the men. I think da-Al looks like you found a really good one, they are like gold. For that a good men and women are like gold, rare.
