Mansha'allah.. im happy for ya ayeeyo.. im glad to hear dat. we'll keep the hope alive and try to trust our brothas lol....

it might be crazy to ask Qs like this when im somalian myself but hey it is kinda weird dealin with my ppl sometimes.. my q is in somali culture is it "must" to sit with the guest even if they are ur dad's age and male?? coz i have this problem with ppl tellin my dad "oh ur kids don't like their ppl" i mean i don't hate them.. but grew up with my mom's family where if a guy nocks the door u ask who they lookin for before u open the door, and after tellin u who they lookin for u get that person or say that person isn't home without seein ur face. and i have been like dat even since 9 yrs old.. so i can't just change like dat. and my dad thinks sometimes we are rude to his ppl lol. second q is. why do some somalians hate being called (uncle, aunt).. the answer i get is why u callin me uncle im not married to ur mother, or im not old call me brother? helloo first of all that person is about my dad's age second being called uncle is out of respect... i call (khala, or khalo) my mom's friends or any middle eastern, and they love it coz to them it shows respect... so it is a bad thing in somali culture? maybe i'll stop callin them dat. fill me in yo'll..

woow ladies.. but hey i guess if it is aight with ya why not.. lakkad what u talkin about.. i have my dad who says piercin ur sanka is bad in somalian culture so i have no idea about the navel... i know my dad will go crazy when i get my sanka pierced.. (coz of his culture) but since my mom's culture is aight with it.. i'll just get my sanka.. that is enough for me..

flyin still i have seen dat too. i was like woow :eek: ... and as many of us said we ain't perfect. but we as somalians are lucky we don't have no guy willin to kill his sister coz she was raped. get raped. isn't like she did it on her own and was happy about it.. :mad: u got it Barawaqo.Bottom line...doesn't hurt to appreciate what we have every so often.

Originally posted by rudy: u know what i mean lucky! common dont me sweat it out! long time ago, a friend here in the site gave an advice which i ignored couple of times and i paid the price he advised me to keep my distance from ladies in the site cuz they like to setup traps for guys, n'mean!! what do u mean by dat?? coz there are sweet nice sistas here. and i sure have no idea what u talkin about waryahe lol.. rudy what did u get urself in to this time hahaha.. sweety i got ur point but u sure havin hard time up in here.. good luck... and about the Islamic section.. if someone posts something that doesn't make sense it is ur duty as muslim person to correct them and tell them why.. lefty when we say well said, agree with ya. we don't mean to suck up or anything. is just that if someone said what u was gonna say what is the point of postin same comment and bored rest of the nomads here.. that is just how i see it. twisted ayeeyo i see u helpin urself out hmmmm lol.. smart kida.. Shaka zulu holla at the ayeeyo Ina adeer.. masallama..

^^^let me see. Zakariye got one of my favorite names.. sounds nice, wiseman. he mostly writes in somali so i don't get what he says. but that is kool.. masallama

Barawaqo what u mean finally over for ya? are u guys closin school now in london or something? Bambina dymmm good luck.. i wouldn't wanna move to anywhere for school. i like my home town .. but im sure u gonne be fine.. work hard.. i ain't goin anywhere new, but going back to school is never fun lol.. but im some what glad to have something to keep me busy for four months... good luck to all my nomads.. work hard and don't be lazy

Rising Phoenix thanks for that website. it got so many info mansha'allah. i was readin and readin.. i liked it. thanks again dear.. sallamat..

Unreal heart. maybe coz if she isn't as educated as him, it is easy for him to control her.. atleast that is what my afghan friends family do. coz i was askin them dat the other day.. i know two afghan families and mansha'allah the whole family is edcucated, their 30 yrs daughter still going to school and mansha'allah they are good.. doctors and all.. and guess what. all their sons married ladies who are 17-20 and who are not educated at all.. the worst part all those girls gotta live with his family.. and u know what they do?? they clean, cook and do laundry. while the daughters are gone to school all day... hmmmm

saaqid as much this might sound im big time hater but im not bro.. i do feel sorry for them to die like dat. or even going thro all dat. but to be honest with ya it isn't important to me as much as palistenian Situation... i used to feel sorry for me ppl. but to be honest. ones somalis get peace in any country all they do is make other ppl's like Miserable... i have seen the ones who live in this country. so i guess my ppl are better of being in war and prayin god to help them.. and incase u wonderin why would i be sayin things like this.. here is my one of my reasons.. A somalian man is in jail u know why? coz his some qabil wants to get even with him now.. coz back home he was a judge and powerfull, so they had the guts to bring all dat crap n bullshit to Kuffar and tell the US should jail him coz he was a bad guy and killed Innocent ppl from their qail (i doubt it) even if he did all those things they sayin he did, don't they know Allah? couldn't they leave all dat to Allah instead of Gal? no they thought a Kaffar is powerful now and they just had to use that.. wooow.... if that is the ppl u tellin me to care and remember. no thanks my dear.. coz that is how low our ppl can get... let me know when they grow up and pass that qabil stage may be then i'll say i care about my ppl.. peace in the middle east. n 1 luv

Originally posted by Darman: especially the ladies… I guess what I am trying to say is this…. Are you worried you wont find that special person when you are finally done with school and understandably is older in age? Do you fear having to lower your standards because your clock is ticking and your chances are not as good as before? I would like to hear what u guys think.. i wouldn't say yes or no.. im kinda in between to some extent i don't worry at all, but sometimes i kinda wonder.... Darman well there are some who don't wanna have kids believe me so SCORPION_SISTA is right.. and to be honest i used to say hell no i don't wanna have kids back in the days....but ever since my mom had my baby sister i lovee kids...coz kids are the cutties thing ever..... they make u smile even if u was havin ur worst day ever..

Originally posted by - diamond princess -: Anywayz, I believe it's just human instincts, a women smiles to be polite or in my case get the guys attention or to be friendly or it's just how they respond to strangers. Women smile for many reasons, some dumb research shouldn't conclude that all women are the same. i totally agree Diamond Princess.. i smile coz i love to smile, to be friendly.. that is me 24/7 unless im really mad.. by the way i had q... is it true somalian culture a girl shouldn't smile in public? coz that is what my mom says... is there reason for it??

Originally posted by Continental Batchelor: My greatest regret is letting jannah sisters who could be potential wives pass away while I was in uni!. Allah has my destiny and Inshallah Allah will guide and correct me to a true deen sister. Peace. u can still get one now unless u too old.. but why yo'll regretin about dat thou? i understand those sistas were wifey type but ur education comes first and that is what u guys did. which is a good thing.... Originally posted by - diamond princess -: Greatest regret is letting a man get to my head in the first place. I realized after I was heart broken and bitter that he isn't worth all the drama I'm going through. Well now I treat men differently, I don't believe a word they say. Ah well, hopefully one day I will. Lol. .:peace n luv:. home girl u said it.. but i do trust some that is coz they are close friends... and yeah insha'allah one day u will...
