Ibti, hade dheel baad iiga moodaa...Just cuz he's white, they feel they hit the jackpot or something...Akhas! CL, thanks for the welcome...Waan dhowahay...

Nin Somali baa iska ba'ay! Malika, did you say white convert? Waala ilbaxay waayahay, forget about converts, cadaanba haduu yahay dhulkey ujiiftaan nowadays...The worst excuse I've heard, for marrying a non-muslim cadaan "he's actually very interested in diinta, insha'allah he'll come around"!!! Somali woman, in general, who bend backwards just to be with a white man, or always seem to be bashing Somali brothers waan unaxaa...There's always a deep rooted issue that make them be this way...Allaha u sahlo...

It is a shame on the man's part for not having the common decency to separate and keep the two/three families away from one another...Weyna ku fiicantahay any woman to be disrespected in such manner...Bad enough in naag kale laga raacay ama lala guursaday, isku guriyaa hadana? Xashac! Tan gadaal ka timidna weyba sii ogolaanee? double xashac iyo nus!!!

JB, correction! It is not a dress you'll be wearing, it is called a gown!!!!!! Congrats qowdhanoow! I'm happy for you *throws an e-hug*...

I personally wouldn't wear black with that dress...It'll look too dull (sorry), cabuurkuu dilayaa...If you want to wear purple with it, wear it with just purple...Purple belt, shoes, and a nice clutch purple bag...Grey hijab with may be a nice little purple pin would look xaax too...That's if you're going for a funky/fresh look...Or you can always keep it elegant and wear gold colored accessories instead of the purple...Good luck...

If twisting my words and taking it out of context would make you laugh, by all means qosol ilaa daamanka eyku daalaan...I'm starting to wonder what is it you have against Somali men, the good ones that is? I've seen so many of your likes who think they're level headed (as you said), those movies never have a happy ending... **Goes to re-read Adam's post**

^I feel like I'm everything when with him though! I wasn't necessarily referring to my significant other! It could very well be that I'm among the burnt ones, who's just appreciationg any good Somali man out there...*Istaqfurulah in a very low voice* Calaa kuli xaal, I still say kudos to the Somali fathers/brothers/husbands who fulfill their everyday *normal* duties/responsibility...It takes a very smart woman to recognise and keep a good one... ***ducks from CL's calyo

Just cuz one appreciates what their significant other does for them, doesn't mean they're nothing without them...Najeynaa...

^Adigaaba ka daroo meeshii ku galgalatay! You're no woman should reduce herself to going after a man for his money...You can get your own and be a lot happier with less headache...Kii lacag kusiiyo adna waa inaa wax kale siiso? :eek:

Aaheey!

Long skirts and good ol' winter? Naga daa dee! Ma barafkaa rabtaa inaad laamiyada ka nadiifiso? I'm not much of a long skirt person, I'm too short...Like Malika said 3/4 skirts and boots works for me, if ever I wear a skirt...Lately, I've been noticing, at the Somali shops, iney ilbexeen...They take skirts from Mango, H&M, Zara and have it made overseas...Price kana boorsada kaama qafiifinaayo (yacni it isn't bad)... Good luck...

CL, walahi I don't mean this as insult, but you're still very young if you're still at the 'they will forever be greatful that a woman like you, yes you has given them the time and the day' stage...Iga daa... When one experiences love, true love at that, one learns to appreciate and experience life at its best (or as close to as possible)! Marka yariisee, when you find that Faarax (yes FAARAX) we should have this discussion... Don't get me wrong, I'm all for the 'he's lucky to have a woman like me', but reality is far different...I'm now at the stage of 'he's lucky to have found me, as much as I'm to have found him'...And add a little mansha'allah... Reality is married women complain about their husband's lack of responsibility, single women complain how hard it is to find a good man...Good men are out there, we just need to see things differently...Marka walaashiis, when you get a good, responsible, dedicated, decent man, who appreciates you just as much as you do, you're life is just that much more eisier and happier! And anyone who makes you feel that way is worth to praise/appreciate/a pat on the back, however you want to call it...Yep!!! Intaa baan uga baxay, hadii kale jiiro-jiiro lee isugu noqoneynaa...

Whoa, whoa, whoaaaa! Where's all this coming from CL? Could you show me where I "gushed" and "awwed"? Did you even read my post? Talk about taking things to a whole new level/direction...Walaalo, I felt to open this thread to show appreciation, YES appreciation for Somali men who do their normal every day duties...If that's a crime, sue me! If not, oh well... If you want to do the same for the women, by all means, go right ahead, I'll be the first to cheer for us... What you're talking about is above and beyond what this topic was all about...But hey, who am I to stop you from venting...Like I've said, this topic is nothing more than showing brothers some appreciation for taking care of their every day responsibilities, which many men fail to do so...Nothing more, nothing less...If you feel it isn't worthy of mention, heeeey...

Val, waxaan ka yaabay Somali women seem more bitter (not sure if bitter is the correct word) these days...Only holding on to the negative in almost every situation...War even saying something positive can get you in hot waters bisinkee...

Obviously, you are taking the whole point of this topic all wrong...Where in my post did I say for men to be 'patted on back' or 'hold them in a pedestal' for doing their every day responsibilities? Iyaah, are we putting words in my mouth indhaheygoo shanta ah? All I said was that I was tired of hearing bad things Somali men do...Tired of seeing good-for-nothing husbands/fathers...When women are the ones who are putting up with this!!! Tired of hearing all the cabaad and calaacal from these women...I see nothing wrong in appreciating the good ones and the things they do for their family...Very simple! When you hear 'ninkaas waa nin fiican' ama 'aabe fiican', it doesn't mean cirka iyo dhulka buu isku keenaa ama kala hayaa...It simply means his daily responsibilities as a man, as a husband, as a father buu kasoo baxaa...Nothing more...

Exactly like xalwa! So how do you eat bariis with something that smells like xalwo and sweet like it (ok may be not as sweet)...Not to mention the look of it isn't all that appealing...Adi xanjada afka iska gasho wah, su'aal badnidaa... C&H, how can you hold peace talks, when you're already siding with Juxa? Iska cesho xalwo iyo buskut kaaga... Sayid, good luck meesha waa laguugu goobtay...Markey ku lagdaan uun baan ani kuusoo dhaqaaqi...
