In your opinion, what are the main factors behind the rising divorce rates among Muslim communities in Europe? Are they cultural, financial, or related to mindset
A simple wish
A sincere heart,
A steady bond,
And a life built gently together.
A question for the men - a man liked my pics on hinge and we matched. We only exchanged a couple of lines and then he stopped responding. He hasnāt unmatched but hasnāt replied either, I sent two more texts after over the space of like 3 months.
Heās attractive, from my ethnic background which isnāt super common, and is well educated so my impression is that weād be v compatible.
Iāve found him on linkedin, how inappropriate would it be to drop him a message there?
As-salamu alaykum,
I have been regularly talking to a man who lives in England for the past 2ā3 months.
I live in the South of France.
Over time, we have developed a strong bond, and at this point, it feels like we have a great deal of affection for each other. Those feelings keep growing day by day, even though we have never met in person. We have had several video calls, and each time we seem to fall for each other a little more.
He s a religious man in his 50s. Fit and handsomeš
The thing is, I had always dreamed of moving to England, but I later realized that it has become very complicated since Brexit.
I tried to slow things down by explaining that if we got too carried away, we might end up regretting it if I couldnāt move there easily. I also pointed out that my children would find it very difficult to live so far away from their father.
Despite all of that, the connection between us is so strong that we continued talking.
Now I feel lost. He wants me to come and visit him this summer. He has assured me that everything would be completely respectful, with my own bedroom and proper boundaries. He believes that spending time together in person is the best way for us to truly get to know each other and decide whether we have a future together.
As for me, I will have some child-free time this summer, and I would really like to take that opportunity to get to know him better. However, I canāt really afford a hotel near where he lives, and I donāt feel comfortable asking him to pay for one either.
He seems deeply in love, but at the same time very sensible, thoughtful, and level-headed. He says he will do everything possible to make sure we do not cross any boundaries, but that I need to give this love a chance to grow and become something real.
What should I do?
And if things do work out between us, does anyone know whether there are any ways for me to move to the UK relatively quickly?
Thank you very much for your kind advice.
