Rain,

I am afraid you will just end up being abused!! Be careful of what you are dealing with. It seems you have just started to feel you don't love your husband anymore when you met this Egyptian Guy..

My advice,

Stay where you are and deal with your husband..

First step is to get legal separation paper from your husband,this takes about a year or two i think depending on court. then if your bf finds job in Qatar, he will have his RP, he can buy a visa for you (visit or tourist) then you can go to Phil.Embassy based here and do all necessary formalities for marriage. Otherwise if he wants to married in Muslim tradition then he knows all the necessary thing based on their tradition or customs.

It's illegal everywhere to be married to two men at the same time, even if you don't like one of them. In Qatar you could be put in jail for adultery.

You are not allowed to get married unless you are legally separated or annulled from your first marriage. Wherever country you may go, if your first marriage is not annulled, you are not allowed to marry another person.

How did you met him and how is this happening . . . ?

Be careful in dealing such cases as your story is very scaring to me; both of you not in qatar and not working and want to marry in qatar and why not in Philippines ? Check with your local embassy in qatar first for the marriage formalities before entering qatar and deciding.

He is not employed and cannot support you and still what is making you decide to marry him. What do you feel you dont love your first husband? Dont fall into a stupid situation where you may repent. To me you seriously need counseling.

Yes! there are many marriages like this in qatar and double/triple then that are frauds and beak-ups ?

Moreover are you going to change yourselves a muslim and marry him ?

Firstly get divorced from your husband, both of you must find jobs in Qatar only then you can be here.The final stage would marriage after the above conditions are met.

you need a authenticated certificate of no marriage first..or a court decision from your first marriage...
