I AM in love with a girl from my home country Egypt. We met on Facebook and we have been talking to one another for nine months. We are in love and I can't even think of living my life without her. She is 24 and I'm 27. I'm studying in the USA and for a Masters degree in business management. She is still in Egypt and studying to be a doctor over there. In our culture marriages or relationships aren't possible without the parents' permission and currently I don't fit her parents' expectations. Their family is a lot more wealthy than mine. My girlfriend has said that she will never go against her parents' wishes and last month she dropped a bombshell on me. She said she is getting engaged to someone back there. We didn't talk for a few days and then we started talking again. She stopped talking about the engagement and again said she can't live without me. But I've a feeling that she could dump me at any time in order to fit in with her parents' wishes. What should I do? Should I move on or just hang around? The trouble is I can't stop thinking about her even for a second. I couldn't bear the pain if I broke up with her.

I don't like people saying they can't ber the pains of losing someone. Will you kill yourself if she goes away? That will be stuipd of you to do. Please, carry on normally and when it is time for you to marry tell her you are making arrangements and if she is your's she will be able to handle her parents but if she is not your's, she will cetainly tell you she can't go against her parents and then you build your love where it will be appreciated!

@poster-she made herself clear to you that she will never go against her parents wish and even went further to let you know she's getting engaged to someone else.so why sounding as if the world we come to an end if she break up with you huh? my candid advise to you,is to take things easy and stop investing so much love in her.if she's made for you,she will definitely be yours.i wonder if you want to kill or steal to meet her parents standard..huh .Love should be base on mutual affection and understanding not wealth.

Poster...y bother urself abt sm1 dat is engaged...wake up n let her go...dnt hang around till she dumps u like a trash...be a man a take a bold step...let her go now n move on with ur life.
Be warned! dnt live under the illusion that she loves u n u love her...she has made her point.... she cant go against her parents wishes...n according 2 u its a tradition in ur culture...so do the right thing by letting her go...if she truly loved u in the first place, she wudnt ve taken another man's engaged proposal or ring.

Then remain in the love you have fallen in and stop disturbing NP. 90% of responses on your post say you move on with life but you insist? Strong head boy!

its will be easy if you make it easy for yourself..that is forget about the past and face reality or furture.
