dremoney what is a "poster", I'm American, I live in northern California, so I'm not sure what you mean by my grammar not being correct? Should I say something more on the line of "dude!" or maybe "for sure!"?? LOL

@Poster

you are not real?  You registered on 24th of August and posted this thread the following day.  It seems your registration was purely because of this thread.

I am real. I have read some of the topics before, but had never thought of signing up and asking any questions. That's why I signed up, so I could ask this question. Is that wrong?? I am new to this.

Thanks Mamaput, I have learned quite a bit. Men are men, people are people, so I am hopeful this relationship is real, but I'm not jumping into it blindly or foolishly. I will enjoy my time in Greece, and hopefully get to know him better. Either way, a vacation in Greece would be heavenly, as long as it's not all burned to the ground by then. LOL

I wonder why people do that, I mean she is not the first and wont be the last. We don't have any influence on what they do, because if you want travel you go travel if not, no yawa.  I mean when i was coming to the US i didnt go on to Blackfolk asking people to tell me about yankee and give me advise on living there.  I don't know why people do that  Huh

I asked because I don't know to many people who are from Nigeria. That's why. If I was moving to Italy, I would ask Italians, and if I were moving to America, I would ask someone from the state/city where I am moving to. Every city is different, and every state is different. I would not move to a southern state in the US because my daughter is mixed and she would be looked down upon. I would not knowingly move somewhere where they would treat her like that. As a parent, it is my responsibility to find out. Especially in this day and age, where you have forums like this, and the internet, there is no excuse for ignorance.

I forgot to mention before I'm an African-American woman married to a Nigerian man in the US.

Has anyone seen the news? Greece is in flames right now. Arson is suspected. You may want to reconsider your trip if it's soon.

Other than that, you are more vulnerable than you think. This man could harm you in so many ways-not to mention your daughter.

Have you sent him any money?

Yes, I spoke with him this morning and he said the fires are very bad. It's been so hot there this summer and dry. It is sad that those people lost their lives because someone set those fires. I am praying for them.

_ kenflipper_ I definitely will. I just love this, and am meeting some interesting people who are very helpful!! So I appreciate it all. If I didn't want to hear the good and bad, I would only ask people who I knew would tell me what I want to hear. So I appreciate both sides!!

I'm not going until after Christmas, so I have some time. Hopefully the fires will be out by then, or perhaps he will come here instead?? LOL I have dated men off and on during the last 5 years, as he and I were 'friends'. He was not happy about it, but has remained a faithful friend throughout this. When I moved to Los Angeles and it didn't work out, he took it upon himself to send me money. I did not ask for it, he just sent it. It took me this long to figure out that here I have the man I have prayed for, but have been going for the "jerks" instead. He may still end up being a jerk, but at least I will know, and not be asking myself later in life "what if?"
