British Asian Marrying Divorced Moroccon Woman

Options
Hi, I need some urgent help. If your a British male and have married a Moroccon lady your wisdoms are required.
I met a Moroccon lady on a matrimonial website. We had a huge language barrier so after 5 days I decided to go see her in Morocco. When we met she said she was happy to marry me. My concern is she is divorced, no children and lives alone in Marrakesh of all places. I have been told Marrakesh is the capital of prostitution in Morocco and the lady in question is fairly modern.
I myself am divorced with 4 children so I can't just take a chance. I have assets too. I'm torn between marrying her or not marrying her. Please help or advise with experiences you have had. I hear most are visa seekers but you can't say that for sure?

    On the extremely unlikely chance that this is genuine and because I am a helpful person:

    Marrying a complete stranger that you can't talk to because you speak different languages? And putting aside that modern in your eyes appears to constitutes a woman of easy virtue, what could possibly go wrong?

    I say go for it - she'll have well and truly earned your assets by the time you get divorced.
    All shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of things shall be well.

    Pedant alert - it's could have, not could of.
  • You could always go and live in Marrakesh, it sounds very exotic.

    DON'T DO IT!

    I thought I was going to marry a moroccan, but I called it off after finding lots of dessicated coconut flakes everywhere, it turned out she was a macaroon.

    Sam this forum needs a "Thanks for the LOL" button.
    Find out who you are and do that on purpose (thanks to Owain Wyn Jones quoting Dolly Parton)

    First of all give her all your bank and credit card details. If this makes her happy go ahead.
    You know what uranium is, right? It's this thing called nuclear weapons. And other things. Like lots of things are done with uranium. Including some bad things.

    Well if you suspect that she is working as a prostitute, and Marrakesh is indeed 'the capital of prostitution' then she must be doing pretty well for herself. My advice would be for her to see a solicitor before taking things any further with you, as you and your many children maybe out to sponge off her.
  • If you can't imagine living together before marriage, at the very least:
    - learn each other's language
    - spend time getting to know one another on skype dates
    - meet each other as many times as you can, and meet each other's friends and family, especially your children meeting her.
    - take your time to decide, this is the rest of your life you are talking about (hopefully)

    Then you'll be in a better position to know her qualities, motivations, and whether you two are compatible as life-long partners.
