Dating a Muslim is different. In 1 year, his parents know nothing, they do sleep together but he doesn't ever want to marry her (or her lack of belief

s), and no PDA at all. Part of why I don't know what to say to her is because I can't relate at all :(

overshare: a local boy has been chasing me lately but the whole wooing process is not what I'm accustomed to and kind of a turn off. Because dating, especially a foreigner, is so unusual, they know nothing about girls. It'd be like dating a 14 year old.

honestly, it sounds as if it's not just about the parents. *He* is not ok with it himself. -- nm - loosilu at work Sep 15, 09:00 23
- he wants his future little girls to stay in the house, no alcohol around, religious, etc. She will not stand for that. Yet they love each other now. -- nm - Hotkiss Sep 15, 09:02 22
  - i'm sure the impossible-ness of it all no doubt escalates the love. - kare Sep 15, 09:06 11
    - she just admitted she loves him more than he loves her. "he stopped himself from falling too hard, and I couldn't control myself." - Hotkiss Sep 15, 09:08 7
      - Sorry, not everyone approaches relationships with blubbering, squishy romanticism -- nm - con_carne Sep 15, 09:16
      - relationships are messy things. -- nm - znufrii Sep 15, 09:11
      - I don't agree with that. I think if he knew it would never last he could keep himself more emotionally detatched. -- nm - pmb Sep 15, 09:10
      - mmm, i kind of disagree. there are varying levels of love. sometimes, believe it or not, you have some say over your feelings. ;) -- nm - kare Sep 15, 09:09 2
        
        I agree with kare. (nm) - musubi Sep 15, 09:27
        
        hmmm, I don't think I've succeed, but I have learned how to manage them. -- nm - loosilu at work Sep 15, 09:10
      - agreed with your IM. -- nm - loosilu at work Sep 15, 09:08
    - been there. -- nm - loosilu at work Sep 15, 09:07

      - *giggle* (nm) - musubi Sep 15, 09:07
  - So, basically, it was doomed from the start. - musubi Sep 15, 09:05 7
    - of course, if he's so religious, what's he doing screwing around? -- nm - loosilu at work Sep 15, 09:06 6
      - Same thing she is. (nm) - musubi Sep 15, 09:09 4
        
        doesn't sound like he lied, but he does sound like kind of a hypocrite who is screwing around with the hot foreigner. -- nm - loosilu at work Sep 15, 09:09 3
        
        Meh. Irrelevant. She knew what she was getting into. (nm) - musubi Sep 15, 09:22
        
        she obviously hated every moment of it, and was totally duped. -- nm - kare Sep 15, 09:10 1
        
        I didn't say that. He was honest that he doesn't respect her beliefs and that this was a throwaway. -- nm - loosilu at work Sep 15, 09:11
      - don't you get it? he *loves* her. - znufrii Sep 15, 09:07
  - I get that. they just have to get over it. it sucks. -- nm - loosilu at work Sep 15, 09:03
