I am very confused tonight. I am also happy and excited. With my past, of course a little cautiousness is always thrown in to these things. I have a friend from another country. He has been in America for about five years and is married from before his move here. They have a small child. I understand there are some marital problems, but the religion/culture does not believe in divorce. He and I have alot in common, so much, and have known each other for a long time, but are now further developing our friendship. We chatted online for the first time tonight. My personality is very open and understanding of different people, views and all different things. I am very accepting, even if I don't necessarily believe the same. So knowing that in his culture it may be okay for a man to have more than one wife or woman, I just don't know what to think. I don't believe that is a good thing for Americans to do, but he is not American. So can that make things right? I don't know how far he will want to take our friendship, but he has shown interest.
