Is she disliked by his family? Is she abused, etc.? I have heard that many Saudi men change when they get back to their country and it is then difficult for the woman to return to the US.

You should see that movie Not with out my Daughter. That was in Iran though. I have heard a good many horror stories about women who got stuck in a country where they had no rights and were abused. This is of course not always the case. I love the Middle East myself and have had a good many male Middle Eastern friends. They are great guys but the cultural differences have to be concidered. Some woman have gone thinking that this guy was totally respectful and westernized but all that changed when he got back to his family. The thing I noticed in the middle east is that they will treat a western female almost with the same respect as a man but a wife is different. Then you belong to them. I don't want to generalize but I wouldn't want to see someone take the risk either.

She will be impressed seeing rich culture. She would see unbelievable level of generosity. She will know what the word "family" really means, as she will find all of her husband family pleased to offer help at any time. She will remove the bad picture that was drown in her mind from CNN, ABC FOX.. etc She will love something called Sahara.

If the woman will be disliked by his family or abused, etc? Who should know without knowing either his family nor the groom? Saudi is a strict islamic country. Even when your husband treats you nice and his family likes you, it might be difficult for you to adopt their lifestyle. You have to convert into islam, cover up, no shopping by yourself, no work. You will need permission from your husband for EVERYTHING. Even for seeing a doctor. Please be aware that children always stay with the husband in case of a divorce and your husband has the right to marry up to four women. There are many things you don't think about or you think you can handle it when you are in love. What you will miss about your current lifetyle you will find out later. Mostly to late. If you still decide to get married and live in Saudi, make a pre-material cantract and attend pre-material counseling. Maybe you will end up with a good man, or maybe not. Who can tell the future and who can feel save from the tribulations of times? I say, be safe than sorry. Love and trust have nothing to do with it. And if someone blackmails you feeling guilty about keeping your optins open, then you need to think twice about the life ahead. All the best!

No, it all depends on the family.

Really it all depends on who you marry. But that is anywhere in the world. I know women in the US, Mexico, and Brazil who have to ask their husbands for permission to even walk down the street with their children. In Saudi by Islamic law you will always have to be taken care of financially even after divorce. Saudi Arabia is a wonderful country that I think will progress over the next 30 years. Most woman choose not to work because they have no need to. Also, you can go shopping by yourself over there! To people over there family really has a different meaning. (In general, of course not to all) You are an unbreakable team who is there for love and respect. You do not have to convert to Islam, in the Quran it states that men can marry any "believing woman of the book" that includes Christians and Jews. Good luck in your marriage and I would personally move to Saudi, I think it was amazing when I went there and everyone I met was very very nice. ***** If you get tired of it Bahrain is a bridge away, you can do anything crazy you want there haha
