[QUOTE]Originally posted by aleinad: [QB] Hi everybody, i'm visiting this web site since many months, reading the messages posted here. In a way my question is the same as a lot others already been debated here in detail, but i still seek your advice for my particular situation. Here is a "short" description of our situation. I'm living in Europe. Me and my future husband know each other since quite a while and we are planning to get married next year in Egypt and settle there. He is Egyptian, already married, has 3 kids. If he would divorce the actual wife, he would not get the custody of the kids as they are too young and he is concerned that that way he would totally loose contact to them and would for the time being have no way to get involved in their education. At the same time, he would be supposed to pay a large sum of money to the wife. In spite of this complicated situation i have decided to accept to marry him even without him being divorced first, for the sake of the kids. Unlike many stories i read on this discussion board, in our case the situation is known and has been debated by all parties involved. I am in contact to the wife and have a very good relation to the kids. The actual wife confirms that their marriage does not work, but she refuses to divorce without getting the best possible material benefits. At the same time, of course she is concerned about the future of the kids and must be worried that the father may neglect them as soon as he gets involved to another woman. So my relation to her, at least in the beginning was very tensioned, but i'm a woman too and i'm sure that if i was her i would react in the same way, that's why i tried to see the matter from her point of view as well. Given all these things, we have decided that at least for the time being the only acceptable way to be together and be beside the kids is to live in Egypt. Although i'm a christian, i have no problem with the real teachings of islamic religion, i've studied the matter well and i became to be convinced. Of course i'm aware of the cultural differences but i'm convinced i can live in Egypt without having big problems to adapt. Now my question: what is the way to follow for a european woman to legally marry a married man in Egypt? We are both aware that our marriage would be legal only in Egypt and perhaps in other muslim countries. We want to marry legally, not just make some papers with the lawyer. I know that if he would be divorced, there would be no problem to get a paper from my embassy which states that they don't object our marriage. But as far as i understand, this paper would be issued by the embassy only if the husband i not already married. My future husband was seeking advice in Egypt and it seems that in our case, the only thing i need is to prove that i'm not married myself. Can anybody advice me how to obtain an official paper which proves my status? Would the situation be changed if i would convert to Islam? Any of you was or is in the same situation? I would be very grateful for your opinions/comments.. Greetings [/QB][/QUOTE]
