Hi there, I assume you got your information from middleastern Arabs. I got slapped with this odd rumor when I came to the US and got into discussions with middleasterns. The rumor has nothing to do with Moroccan women, no matter what their ethnic (arab/muslim) or religious (muslim/jewish) background is. Generally speaking, Moroccan women, have strong personalities, are outspoken and most likely educated or striving to be. Adding to that most Muslim-Moroccans abroad are moderate Muslims, yet with strong principles and ethics, seems quiet unusual and sometimes ‘unacceptable’ for middleastern arabs. Therego, they find it extremely unexpected to see such differences in personalities, views, and ways of life, despite the fact that arabized Moroccans speak a language similar to theirs. And whoever/whatever is different to them is bad and should not be trusted. This is my explanation! I hope it helps.
Congratulations! I don’t know your fiancée but I know Moroccans. They’re great people.

Salam, I am british moroccan muslim and the same thing happened to me a few years ago, I wanted to be sure that he wanted to marry me and it wasn't just for papers as I had been warned, the wedding was all going to go ahead and everything seemed fine but I needed to be sure, so I pretended that when I got married I wanted my life to be in morocco. I then sadly saw that he was not marrying me for love it was the papers. This person changed so much as soon as I said this. If someone truly loves you if should not matter where you decide to live. This is my experence but not all morrocans are the same they are genuine people out there, just be careful. alhamdoulah I am happliy married now with someone who did not need papers from me. I wish you all the best.

I'm engaged to a Moroccan man, and have some similar doubts, I don't for a second think that he wants papers from me, but with everything that you read its hard not to get disheartened. We have recently decided to plan our wedding and then all of a sudden he got this job on a fishing boat and left very suddenly 4 weeks ago. I've no idea when he is to return and am beginning to wonder if he will. I am in contact with his father who has tried his best to reassure me, and tells me that he was expecting him to be gone for a month and so he should be back soon.

The only reason I have for feeling so insecure is what I read and hear. I have stayed with his family on many occasions, met his immediate family and a lot of his extended family, and his father has even sent me a message saying how happy he is about our marriage. I'm trying to stay positive but if anyone knows anything about these fishing jobs in Morocco can they please shed some light?

Staying in a fishing boat for 4 weeks? Nice old sardines! Yikes.

Fishermen stay on a fishingtrip max 10 to 14 days. Never saw Perfect Storm, I guess?

Being a fisherman in Morocco is an honest but smelly job that hardly pays anything!!!!

Why do you western girls want to get married with men that you meet online or on vacations, these men live in foreign countries far away and you don't know anything about them!! Can't you find a man in your own environment? What is the problem!?
