Such sweet and innocent questions like “ Ladies, would you propose?†as if things are really that simple. As if the Somali women sit back and wait for a stubborn guy to get the hint and propose when he’s ready. As if it’s not them who really RUN the show and TELL you when you’re ready to propose. Usually, it’s the girls who propose. They do it by playing hard to get and words such as “ warya, maxad na mooday? Saaxiib, saaxiib anako ma naqaanâ€, She will not mention marriage but she’ll fix the boundaries, the trap for the poor unsuspecting Don Juan to fall into. A few lucky brothers manage to escape from the clutches of these black widows. The majority though, give up and in order to give their vulnerability some cloak of respectability, they propose! Trust me, it is really the women who propose first. They do it the minute they open the doors to that coop and lure the men in. they don’t call the institution of marriage The Golden Cage for nothing, you know. :rolleyes: NGONGE GOD bless you my brother, you just gave me the PERFECT idea for a perfect nick name :cool:

Why doesn’t he have his wife as a best friend? What will he talk about with another woman that he can’t talk about with his wife? :confused: I dont see the point in having a female best friend while being married! :rolleyes: In my dictionary there IS nothing called best friend with the opposite gender, period! FINITO!

Dont get me wrong, but so many Somali has been brain washed and very fast welibo. Ilaahaa noo maqan hadaan maryooleey nahay.

Hey people.. I'm not sure if this is going to post but it's worth a shot. I was reading through the different threads and found this to be a very interesting one especially since it pertains to me "married wanting a divorce". I've been married well over 1 year and have learned alot about what marraige is and how it works that I well quite honestly didn't know before. I've had my share (3) of little fights but now everythings is cool and settled.. The thing is I just don't like the marraige thing period. Walahi I don't even understand myself. My husband is possible the sweetest fella on earth. I love him but just can't bother to go through married life and all it's issues. My life was much simpler when I was single (though I'm still at home haven't moved out yet) I really see no point in waiting to move out getting pregnant etc and seeing anymore of what marriage is about . I weighed it out and came to the conclusion that I love him but I love my simple life much more and that marriege isn't really high on my list of needs and priorities now and possible forever. I'm 21 and am unbelievable happy at home don't want to leave knowing where I'm headed it doesnt seem like a good enough reason to leave home walahi...... The other thing is I also feel that though I love my husband greatly and he loves me even more then life it self it would be more beneficial for the both of us to go our seperate ways for many reasons that I will not mention. But unfortunetly we don't agree on my solution plus divorce is such a big fuss can't be bothered (explaining especial since what I'm saying doesn't make sense " I'm not made for marraige you know not a marriage person).. you wouldn't believe how tedious it is getting a divorce I've seen it happen and I can't deal with all that.. Oh and most importantly my sweet husband he might shoot me and then himselve... don't know why though I mean I'm being very honest about how I feeel...thats life for you. Anyway please feel free to comment Q. A friend of mine said that it's cuz I don't truely love him? I disagree becuase aside from my family I don' think I've cared about someone so much in my life.
