Dear Paula, when an Arab man dates a non-arab woman, specially american or european, there could be something behind it. Means, he could be after something = nationality, relocating, sex. In a sec. he could become Your Romeo to get what he's after.
In General, Arab men are possesive and controling, and and they don't like it, when women give them love anytime and all the time. You need to act hard-to-get. If you end up together, don't ever expect to get your full rights as a woman. This kids thing is to make you believe he's serious about you. After 2weeks!! lol they do like Drama, mind games, and showing off, so "becareful" and Take your time. You know the guy...If you think he loves you, try to test him to make sure.
