What is it like dating a Moroccan?

Moroccans, generally know what's wrong and what's right, and nothing will make them change their mind, especially when it comes to their partner. If you are going through a rough time, they will do everything to make you feel better or comfort you, because they want to stick with you through thick and thin.
