Modesty Posted December 18, 2007 Is it me or every Somali guy doesn't know how to treat women? Like they don't hold doors for you, or on a date, they don't pull your sit out for you. Or they don't give gifts,or bring you flowers, but the non-Somali guys will treat you like royalty. LOL, well maybe it's a "Farah" thing and we have to accept it. I have also noticed the younger generation that grew up in America don't respect women, they consider them to be h@s like BET or something. Anyways, that's my rant for the day.

Chimera Posted December 18, 2007 Go for a muslim Ajanabi then sister, Somali women have flaws but we men adapt. If you cannot teach your Somali man romance then maybe your not that romantic after all. I remember a goodlooking friend of mine who could have easily eloped with a morrocan or a turkish girl in NL but the poor guy was in love with a Somali girl and he did the whole ''one knee and a ring'' routine at a restaurant and she rejected him but accepted a non muslim Ajanabi later on and look at her today children,divorced,debt it's a true mess know the difference between reality and Fantasy sister!

Modesty Posted December 18, 2007 Ok, my problem is I can't see myself with ajnabi guy, I haven't given one a serious try ...I guess I have to "teach" one how to behave :rolleyes: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
winnie Posted December 18, 2007 i think somalis in general are *very* romantic, but the guys just have to feel comfortable to show it, cause they are very macho too. they are scared shi**less that they will be clowned. given the opportunity and the confidence they'd surprise you. i dont think there is another culture that celebrates love the way we do, we treat it like this clandestine thing that elders have to admonish openly but secretly revel and celebrate. other cultures may be known to be romantic, but really what they celebrate is the wooing part, how to "win" someone's heart, whereas somalis talk about being "struck", "attacked" or "consumed" by it... just my opinion. funny how somalis like to point out the random somaliyaad who went for a non somali, and yet the vast majority of somali/non somali relationships involve a dude, even though the ratio of somali men/ women is heavier with the female population. i think we are all aware of failed relationships where both parties were somalis... come on people, try harder.

You have 2 choices: 1. Take a chance and go for ajnabi guy who may or may not be the rom,antic type you want(just because a man is not Somali doesn't mean he's romantic) 2. Go for a Somali guy and quit whining. If you do decide on #1, you know where to look. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jacaylbaro Posted December 18, 2007 looooooooooool@cadaan Since you are the only white here ,,,, do you describe yourself as Romantic ? (let the women hear this plz) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Baluug Posted December 18, 2007 Well, I did hold doors open and buy gifts every now and then for the ex and stuff like that, but I wouldn't really consider that "romantic", I consider that common sense, something a man should do regardless, unless he wants to sleep on the couch. P.S. How's that for a resume? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Paragon Posted December 18, 2007 Romance? Romance is the fringes of emotional battle-ground my dear. Give in one inch and you'll find yourself (pre)occupied for the rest of your life. Romance, eh? Thanks, but no thanks. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
