  1. Who cares, lets ship them all to India, hadaysan soo cararin with their skinny lafo been baan sheegays. I have seen plenty of men(in the family of course) who married outside cadaan, hindi, iyo black Americans oo ama divorced ah, ama somaliya u dhuuntay so that they can marry Somali girls. There is something special about someone who enjoys a couple of reer miyi jokes with you even if he doesnt speak the language well. Speaking of weird jokes, have you heard the one where the old lady said " Ilaahayow i kici oo ha i kala reebin, markay kala bar kacday kute ama kacaye is ka daa!!" Rumor has it she was frozen in that position.
  2. Hello Trollers, Say what now? Indians? Just Say No to ANYONE but Somali. If he doesnt have a big forhead, skinny legs and isnt stubborn, iima baxdo aniga.
  3. Its their 5yr anniversary tomorrow Oh my, see perceptions about certain dates and their meanings land people in hot water. What if he doesnt attach any value to anniversary? And she obviously does. I once had a friend who ended a promisin relationship with a guy because of this exact reason(but they werent married). He was so good to her otherwise. He couldnt remember anniversaries, couldnt take off work for birthdays and other special days, wouldnt buy her flowers or gifts unless she screamed at him to get it but would get up 5 in the morning to take her car to the garage or pick her up from the airport or pay her bills when she was behind :confused: . For the life of me, I couldnt make her see that!! She is now realizing that she's missed on a good guy because no one came close to him as far as being considerate and caring goes.
  4. Loveless: Cold, uncaring, no effection(bedroom or not),selfish,inconsi derate,stingy, no understanding of other's circumstances, critising,etc. Unromantic: No flowers, gifts, spontenous hugging or kissing, no holding hands, foot messages, declarations of undying love, marveling at each other, leaving love notes, praises in public, candle lit dinners, remembering and planning spectacular anniversary dinners, breakfast in bed....and all other fantazies.
  5. Maryan: Welcome Sharif. Can we have your full name please? Caller: Err…Sharif Ahmed. Mustafa: Sheikh Sharif? Caller: Err..no..no..not him. I am normal Sharif. kix, kix, kix Alla Rabiyoow, I havent laughed this hard for a long time. Thanks. NG, if you wrote the diologe, you're the master of irony. It's unbecoming how the show is for people observing fasting and other cibaadas, yet they're listening to music and the host has all songs but Somali and the callers are, even the mujahid, have favorite rap music
  6. Wasnt he looking online to find a girlfriend? Also, your style of writing is identical. Just saying, fishyyyyy.
  7. Correction. I am not the head of sexual Exploitation and Abuse (SEA). I am the head of prevention of SEA. War ninka adiga kugu eedaynayo Gay promotion knows less about you ee drop gareey like a bad habit.
  8. What if the sister had to put with 4 years of loveless marriage? Loveless is the not the same as unromantic.
  9. Mostapha, Marx...Mostapha is related to Marx...No, Gasps!Mostapha is Marx. Case closed.
  10. There has to be deeper issues than “he doesn’t treat me special.” Of course she is special to him. He married her and he had a child with her didn’t he? I think what’s irking your friend is the fact that she is the breadwinner. Some women just lose respect and love for the man they’re with should he fail to provide like a man. After four years and a child, one cannot divorce on the basis of feeling not so special. Your friend didn’t give you the whole story, so I suggest you ask her to be frank with herself. Now, about the gifts? Some people just aren’t good at that. They have their own way of showing love than buying material things hence the “bedroom” love. Research has shown that men express their love by contact. Since sex is best thing since sliced-bread for them :rolleyes: , they often think they should just express how much they love their wife by putting on a spectacular show in the bedroom. If she hasn’t given up on him yet(and she sounds like she did) she should try to find ways to get what she wants without ending the relationship. The secret to getting a man to move heaven and earth for you is to PRAISE, PRAISE, PRAISE as in “ Oh Honey, I have never had anyone do that for me,” and “OMG, you’re amazing for doing that.” Dont nag, just sweetly ask for what you want.
  11. Lol@ drive-thru grocery. I've spotted few drive-thru starbucks. I remember when my friend discovered the first one about a year ago, and we used to drive 15minutes just to get to it and giggle at the menue and the absurdity of all. But now there are few and the novelty have worn off. People are taking convinience to a whole another level walle.
  12. Hey choco. Depends for me. I'm goal-oriented, so I'm chasing one or two things marwalba. I also like ticking things off my mental list. Very satisfying feeling. Another 'motivator' maybe. Definitely. What motivates you? I dont know. I was going through a professional Devolopment course materials that ask too many questions. I like tangible payoffs, if you will but I'm that motivated by anything lately
  13. Morning Peepz, Maanta one side of my head is numb. Enough complaint. ? What motivates you to succeed, I mean in your here life? What makes you give your best?
  14. Isnt it afur time yet for you dear ibti? Salamah Indeed.
  15. War heedhe naagta waxay is confuse gareysay "perfect" and "practical" ok? A man who is too lazy to pay the bills while his wife works full time with a baby is not to be kept, Ok? No one is asking for perfection here but this is lady is convincing herself and other poor souls that compromise is whats about. There is no compromise, she is just slaving away.
  16. What time is it now in London? This place used to be deserted arround this time. Cant wait to got home and take a nap! 2 1/2 hours left to work.
  17. -------------------- -------------------- -------------------- -------------------- ''Despite the fact that one of the mentioned reasons of FGM is that men can be sexually satisfied, the practice is mainly done by women, asked for and controlled. Possibly, men are not fully aware of their role in maintaining the practice'' - Sharing the pain of the bitter hearts: liberation psychology and gender pg 51 Nonesense, No an absolute, outright lie. Men are not aware of it kulahaa, sheekooy ku nacay. It is one thing to feel ashamed to be associated with such barbaric practice, it is another to completely put the blame on the victims.
  18. It is not common sense dear adeer. I listened to it from Sheikh Umal in the beggining of Ramadan. Can't remember exactly the Hadiths but will listen again tonight when I get home IA.
  19. C&H, you bring it on yourself really. You're too girly it's unreal (not as unreal as Oz girl but....). NG, glad you can join us. Aww.. I hurt my recently manicured pale-pink nails while typing this message to you
  20. Yes, ya Allah. They didnt forget; they just got carried away. Ok, tell them to make that day up which by the way is equivalant of 2straight consecutive months. So fast for 60 days straight.
  21. I'm hungry JB so her swaying in with a Frappicino in one hand and a muffin with the other hand, asking me such silly questions makes me want slap her sideways. I get like this because I divorced coffee and I miss him terribly.
  22. Ducaysane, adiga you hear dumar sheekadooda and sniff, sniff you arrive, cajiib!
  23. I dont care wallahi macaanto. But I cant nurse illusions specially in this day and age where people expect to get a pat on the shoulder for no reason at all. I'm fasting so ofcourse I'll look different but she is making this a competition. Gaalada waa ciyaal baad is leedahay sometimes.
  24. Morning Trollers, ughh! Dont you hate needy people, I mean attention wise.When I came back to work on Monday everyone at work kept telling that I need to eat cuz I look wayyyy thinner and I'm like back off I'm fasting. They dont get it, so now I just keep ignoring their comments. Enter my annoying co-worker. Everytime she sees me she is asking me "have I lost weight? Cuz I feel it." Me: "you look the same to me." Then she kept telling me that people are telling her she is thinner. Today, she walked in and before she said hi, she goes like "guess what a lady in the bus told me that I lost weight.? Ughh. I feel like snapping but I'm fasting. I want to tell her "you got way bigger(and she did!!)now shut up!"
  25. C&H, titles could be misleading and one can learn a lot by venturing into what at first sight looks nasty. Elizabeth Pisani's "The Wisdom of Whores" is educating as well. Please read it. I wouldnt be cought dead carrying a book with such title however, because I'm a book worm, I might flip through it at the bookstore or something.
