GILFORD, Mich. - A teenager who flew to the Middle East to be with a man she met on MySpace.com said Friday she intends to marry him.

"I love him very much," 17-year-old Katherine Lester said of Abdullah Jimzawi, 20, who works in his father's business delivering goods to West Bank convenience stores.

Lester appeared on ABC-TV's "Good Morning America" with her father and stepmother. Jimzawi also spoke with ABC during a taped portion of the segment, describing how the pair "can't live without each other."

After hearing what Jimzawi said, Lester began weeping.

"It's true," she said. "I love you. That's all I can say."

The two first encountered each other about seven months ago on the social networking web site but have never met face to face.

Lester, who turned 17 on Wednesday, was en route to Israel earlier this month when she was intercepted in Jordan by U.S. authorities who seized her passport and put her on a flight back to the United States.

Jimzawi has told The Associated Press that the two planned to marry and that Lester planned to convert to Islam. Lester, a Christian, declined to say Friday whether she intended to convert.

The two have resumed communication online since she returned home.

"Our initial reaction was to isolate her, to lock her up and just keep her safe here in America," said her father, Terry Lester. "But that's unrealistic because you can see the love they have for each other."

Authorities filed a runaway juvenile petition against Lester earlier this week, and a judge ordered her to give up her passport and undergo counseling. If the judge finds that Lester was a runaway, she could be placed under court supervision until she turns 18.

Oh man...Anyone can put up a pretty face on the internet....Just my 2cents...So be careful out there kids, you don't wanna go marrying a peado or a grandma ;D
 
Raises more questions then it answers. Apparently there was some 2 way flirting going on.

Is this a basis for a good relationship? Perhaps it is best if the young lady remains with her parents and then see if she chooses to revert to Islam for the right reason and then she may be presented to the young man as a respectable Musilimah.
 
I hope she would learn more about Islam and Arab culture before she is 18. I dont want she to convert because of love, but because her believing in Islam. But she dont have to convert, because a male Muslim can marry Ahlel Kitab. Whatsoever, good luck for them!
 
I dont oppose the realation, but i think the girl is acting too hastily. She has only met the online personality of this young man. she hasnt met him in person. Does she plan on getting married to him straight away after she arrives??
