Algerian boyfriend
I have known him for 2 years - He is from Bejaia , and I have visited 4 times and spent many happy hours eating couscous and spending time with his lovely family. It's a beautiful country with beautiful people .
I am older than him and divorced and currently living in the U.K. We have applied for a visitor visa for him so he can come to England and meet my family and spend 2 weeks with me so that I can show him where I was born and he can visit some of the sites in the U.K. However , he doesn't have much money and neither do I so long term I am not sure how we can make it all work . Also, I am thinking he will not get a visitor聽 visa because U.K. Immigration will think he won't return to Algeria after the 2 weeks are up!!
Anyway, I do love him very much and I spend every evening in Skype with him but I'm just not sure what we can do in the future .
Thank you very聽 much for any advice

Welcome to 大咖福利影院

We are here on an expatriate website and we mainly discuss about expatriation issues ( procedures, visas , how is life abroad etc )
For personal affairs, i am afraid that we might not be apt to help you unfortunately.
What is precisely your question please and what kind of help are you looking for?

Thanks,
Priscilla
Maybe I need to post this on another forum but thank you for your reply.
Will return to this site if I manage to marry and move聽 to Algeria in the future 馃槃
Thanks again
Caroline
My advise to you is that don't believe what others said take theirs for reference. Judge with your own heart and eyes. Your 's worries was mind too
Thank you for your reply . I am still with my boyfriend and hoping we can find a way to be together in the future . Uk immigration refused his visitor visa so not sure how !
Best wishes
Caroline

Thank you for your messages
Maybe we can look into that but we have lasted this long so I think it's genuine --it's just distance is the problem 馃槃 Xx
Caroline
so but you need he bring you at arrport you konw ? for make you sur
and you know you'r boy
but algeria its not carzy not like america but okyWe have been together for 3 years now and hoping to get married this year聽 but not sure where we will live in the future . I would still like him to come and visit the UK but we can鈥檛 get a visa so I only get to see him once a year in algeria 馃槥
Good luck- hope it all works out for you 馃槃

谋 understanding what u feel or think or worry, Its like u need to prepare documents and do it then they are have to聽 accept 谋t cuz he is married with u, actualy 谋ts not hard in turkey 谋f u have good economiy, 谋 dont have problem to about take visa to gf , but the foreging mary need some money, but 谋f u ll live in algeria 500 dolars enough for live good in there live normal algerian but 谋ts depends to area like center or center out 
Maybe I will聽 live in algeria one day 馃槃馃槃
If u have something like that, then ll do 谋t easy, even u havent any thing, ur聽 future husband ll聽 care u ofc dont wory, So algeria is best choise, 陌n艧allah u ll be happy int there, 陌f 谋 can mary with my gf, from algeria, Think about to move there but need to learn some language, arabic or french but 谋ts hard
thats why聽 谋m stresfull a little to 
Anyway-lots of luck and hopefully we will find a way to make our dreams come true 馃
The problem is I love him and I believe he loves me ... it鈥檚 a difficult thing because we place our trust in someone and we take the risk because of love but I could do the same with an English man and he take me for everything I have . I share every day in Skype and FaceTime -we talk about everything ,he is caring and compassionate and his family have always welcomed me as one of their own.
I do understand exactly what you are saying and I have thought about the future but life is short and maybe this relationship will be in the 2% that aren鈥檛 just for a visa 馃槉
We met 3 tomes already.
I love him but my guts still saying something.
Inshallah things will get thru
We are more in love now then when we met 3 years ago so trust your instincts and ask questions and spend as much time together in real and Internet and all the best for your future .

I will say you have a right to worry about algerian men.聽 I hope he is a good man as they don't marry older divorced women with children.
If you can't give him children it is doomed.
Good luck with visa and if he is a good man marry him. Get on DLA you will have no problem.
If we can鈥檛 get the visa for the uk then maybe in the future I will be able to come and live there . We have talked about it so maybe one day 馃槃
I wish my message finds you well , that's great I wish happiness for you guys , what a nice couple , distance means nothing when someone means everything , even the age gap is nothing .
Algerians are too cute and especially when they have chance to interacts with foreigners , I wish you all the best
I am going through similar situation as you are. I am from Croatia and that guy is from Relizane, Algeria. We met online and we are talking for 3 years now. I am 28, he will be 29 soon.
Did your guy mention converting as a main thing you should do before marrying him?
Because mine does. Although one Algerian friend (that isn't that religious) told me that Algerians can marry non-muslims while they remain in their faith.聽
And you mentioned visiting him for many times, how did his parents and family accept you?
Because mine told me that *the time* I come there should be last. But I thought of first going there to meet him and see how we fit together before making that final step.
Hope everything will work out for you two. 馃榿
You are not required to convert to Islam before marriage.聽 A muslim man can marry a Christian jew ect...聽 He is allowed to ask you 3 times if you still refused he can't force you.聽 聽I assume you have not met yet in person?. I would take it slow and see how you get a long before committing to anything.聽 Inshallah
He told me that unless I convert to islam he can't marry me. And no, we didn't meet. And I doubt that asking *that question* have same weight being asked on messenger or in real.
I did read many threads about converting where women wrote their experiences (both bad and good) and how they tried to accomodate to algerian culture, so I am confused.
And every time I ask him about his beliefs, religion and its input in his life (being most important), society and role of women he usually ignores them saying that I already have prejudices so it would be useless.
I am聽 in Algeria聽 I can tell you聽 my experience聽 of being a woman in Algeria.聽 聽Men and women are very jealous.聽 You will wear clothes that are modest and a hijab.聽 You will be kept in the聽 house cooking and cleaning.聽 Hidden from all , that's if he is a strong muslim. If not he will take you out my husband do not hold my hand or kiss in public.聽 聽He聽 will be allowed to聽 go out with his friends聽 while you stay in the home..聽 you should join a group called married to an algerian聽 many from all over the world .聽 Good luck sister not all men the same inshallah聽 and聽 I can only say from my experience.聽 They are also very family oriented and聽 his family will come before you.
Welsh girl can tell you more than I can but from my own experience , my fianc茅 has never asked me to convert to Muslim.
However, I do wear modest clothes and no hand holding and public displays of affection. I am a very private person anyway and I didn鈥檛 do this before I met him so this isn鈥檛 a problem for me .
We talk a lot about his religion and beliefs and I respect them and read as much as I can about the Quran.
I have been to algeria many times and spent a lot of time with his family and they have always been very welcoming .
Good luck and I hope everything works out for you
