Egyptian men, here's a question for you!?

Question

Okay so inspired by the many western women who seem to be falling over themselves for an Egyptian man, I have a question for you and be honest!! if you met a western women (say from America or England), you liked her, thought she was nice enough but wouldn't have looked twice at her if she wasn't western - i.e. you don't love her BUT she was madly in love with you, would you marry her and move to her country? Considering that you could earn a lot abroad and so on...

Not to offend anyone or anything, just want to clear up some stereotypes!

Answer 1

one of my friends who lives in America told me he can arrange a marriage for me from an American girl, I told him I agree with one condition that she come and live with me here.

he laughed at me and said who would wanna come and live here in Egypt. I know that he is wrong and there are many people who dream to come and live in Egypt.

honestly I hate living in Egypt but after the 2 years I spent in Saudi and my travel to Italy I changed my mind, I realized that there is no heaven on earthand I have to enjoy the simple things in life anywhere and anyhow with the people I love, It's OK to live here and get out to breath fresh air every now and then.

to answer your question yes I'd marry her and stay here in Egypt, there is a saying "to be loved is something". I'd love to marry a girl who is crazy about me, but I'm sure after sometime she gonna hate me for making her stay in Egypt...lol

Answer 2

yup , I would marry her to get out , this is not my plane , but if I have a situation like this I may accept it .

edit : loooool thumbs down for being honest , Egyptians we rock :D

Answer 3

lol , no ^^

i cant get married without falling in love first.

No nono , i dont need money from her.

:)

Answer 4

let me give you a true story....

My best friend in Egypt... Ive known him for 4 years and I know everything about him... He is the man you are describing above or should I say he was............

He met an English woman 5years older than him (going on 30)... he married her first with an Urfi marriage (liecense to have s*x) temporary or secret marriage... 2or 3 years down the line he realises he has a winner... she will do anything for him, give him money, s*x, gifts and more importantly promises of england, she paid around £6,000 to try and get him out of the army, married him the embassy and even tried for a baby.. (al humdulah there is no baby) He never loved this women and he was not even attracted to her! He tried so hard to use this woman to get out of the country but it didnt seem to be working... he cheated on her constantly and treated her extreamly bad but she stayed... untll one day he woke up! He realised there was more to life than this struggle to leave the country... he wanted to be happy and with her he wasnt...he accepted his situation in the army and focused on other things he left this woman and learnt a huge lesson in life!!!

This is just one of the many stories I could tell you as all of his friends are doing the same thing at present... its almost like a competition to see who can get there first. I once met a 28yr old Egyptian guy who was married to a 78yr old woman!!!!!! tell me thats love....

Answer 5

oh ,no are you all foreign women married Egyptian men , may be this is the main reason of the increase of spinsters for Egyptian women

looool

Answer 6

well said Tarre,

i so totally agree with you

and to Aster for having the courage to be honest.

There is one other thing that needs saying.

many of those who may answer yes to this question are also those who cannot afford or are not able to go onto the internet for many reasons.

There are not that many english/western women who are falling over them selves as you put it, but yes there are some.

and as Aster says many of the men seem to prefer to stay put in egypt but to benefit from the womans money.

i dont know which stereo types you are trying to clear up. But if you want the answer to this question for yourself, visit Luxor sit on the corniche for a few hours and watch. i think that will answer your question.

There will always be people who wish to change their circumstances, both men and women in all situations.

and i dont belive we any of us have the right to judge unless we have been there or experienced for ourselves

Answer 7

Hello Eman,

I am not an Egyptian man,but I am a Western American woman And I hope you don't mind if I add my opinion here.

First of all I think that most men who are interested in a woman just for the sake of citizenship or getting a Green Card are not going to admit it openly.After all people who live a life of deception are certainly going to hide behind this false indentity,convincing everyone around them they are for real when they are not.

A woman who falls all over any man is obviously not emotionally in the right place.There are many foreigners "not just Egyptian" but from around the world who do pretend to be in Love with a woman or get her to love him for the sake of escaping their countries and coming abroad.However to judge everyone with this same stick of judgement would be wrong because there are just as many good people who really are in Love with a foreign person and do not just want to use them.

Love can be blind,its not about where a person is from or what they look like or what their status is,true love comes from a deep place inside of us,and lasts the test of time.I think foreign women need to be very careful,you need to use your better judgemen't and you should never trust anyone until they have proven themselves worthy of being trusted.If a man loves a woman he will do anything to prove to her,that he is all what he says he is.

Judging someone based on how they look and thinking oh well this man would never have hooked up with her had he not wanted a green card simply because she isn't according to the world's standard attractive,does not mean the man didn't find love in the woman,and it doesn't matter where that man is from.

Even attractive and beautiful women have been scammed.Egyptian men are like any human being,some are telling the truth,others are not.And the only way to tell is to get to know them over a period of time,and experience life with them.Pray about it,listen to your instinct,listen to your inner voice,and always ask for spiritual guidance from above.It will be interesting to see if just one man actually admits to this question openly.

We must remember that good people and bad people,liars and those who tell the truth,real lovers and fake lovers,false love and true love,exist everywhere in the world.How do we know what is in someone's heart? we cannot know,that is something only God can see...

Best wishes for all

Answer 11

Hi Eman,

I'm a female and I hope you don't mind me answering your question.  I am western born in the UK and moved to America when I was 11 yrs old then moved back to the UK when I was 25 yrs old.  Anyway, I met this lovely Egyptian man over here and he said he's never fallen for a western woman before but with me I'm different.  Trust me, I'm as western as anyone's gonna get.  I'm a natural blonde, blue eyes with very fair skin. My lover is Egyptian, naturally tanned, brown eyes and Muslim.  I am Roman Catholic. If we decided to take our relationship a step further and get married and have children then I know our children would take his religion.  I really do love him very much and he said he'd stay in the UK. He is here only temp because he's just received his degree etc... I know he misses Egypt but he said he'd stay if the right job offer comes up and if our relationship progresses.
