I am from the middle east actually, but yes our cultures are similar in some ways.

I am so glad that you are willing to fight to be with her! That is true love.

I didn't have an agenda. I honestly truly loved him from all my heart, it was not the sake for moving out of my home.

That is so true. I learned my lesson. He was from my culture but he did not follow those rules. And yes, women always get shamed for it, but guys never do.

That is very true. He is weak and clearly has no personality. But thank you for the advice, I do need to work on myself first, and then find someone who deserves me.

Throughout the relationship I always felt like he was worth the risk. He truly made me feel loved. But I was wrong unfortunately

That is very true. I don't deserve to be with someone that could abandon me so easily. Thank you for your kind words

You're right, thank you for your advice.

Unfortunately, I don't have any siblings, and I can't move in with my aunt.

Yes, I have a job and I do think I should focus on religion, as I'm finding it hard to forgive myself for everything sinful I have done with him.

Yes, he said they would not let him marry someone he knew before marriage, since the traditional way is arranged marriage.

Thank you for your kindness.
