Long jean black skirt, fitted black hoodie, flip-flops, and a messenger bag matching my flip-flops. Words can not describe the exquisite elegance of Lazoughly post. Best of luck Mystic!

Mystic, all jokes aside: Lazoughly is a dump. It is so dirty and non-elegant I am afraid you would look funny in a wedding dress... I am sure you look good enough in everyday clothes to shine in there! Posts: 2238 | From: Mother Earth | Registered: Jun 2004

NO CHANGE of clothes.. and during the night my BF and i got Bit a Million times by something and were covered in welts (thank god I was covered cause the Sucker only got my ankles)we didnt sleep.. the athan speaker was in our window.. so I went to the courts.. No sleep.. no shower.. no clean clothes.. no fragrance to cover the horse smell.. oh and yeah.. we were LAte

I cannot believe that this is being written by the same person who less than one month ago told us that she had broken off her relationship with her long-term fiancé soon after breaking up with her long-term boyfriend!!! So you are now coming to spend 5 weeks with some guy you met through ES (whose ES username you can't remember) and you plan to marry him in a couple of weeks. Have I got the story right????

My wedding planned for 1 year, so had time to ask such questions to help me out! I wore nice black jilbab from Damascus and bright purple hijab - should have worn wellington boots though to wade through the dirt and cigarette ends on the floor Posts: 160 | Registered: Feb 2007

Thank God someone other than the evil MK has finally spotted the pink elephant.
This is all so wacko that I was starting to suspect the integrity of my own brains.
MH, it's like you are on a sacred mission of self-destruction, so please see a psychologist before you ruin your life to the point of no return.

Ayisha, like the rest of us, you were obviously distracted by Sono's flames and Josette's escapades, and blinked and missed it... blink again and there'll be another sorry tale, I guarantee.
Not wanting to p*ss on your bonfire Mystic, but you really need to take a deep breath before you jump head first yet again. Marriage isn't a game, you know. You don't have to marry someone just because he made you feel better about yourself. Posts: 463 | From: Other side of nowhere | Registered: Jun 2006

Well, dear Mk, ny powers of observation are astute, ca... But look - a real, real nice man. FROM ES, they met here. He's going to Egypt in a few days, too, didn't he say...
Sooooo - call me shrewd like Dr. Watson, haha - but who else could it be??? All the others are taken, heartbroken, or not currently in Egypt... Or they are Battyman, and SHURELY it is not him??? Ooooh, exploding with happy curiosity here, Iam, and *I* also want an ES admirer!!!! Sulk, sulk, sulk...

I wore a pale yellow linen skirt with an asymmetrical ruffled hem, a grass green linen halter top, a cream and gold spanish lace mantilla and sky high open tan heels. Himself wore tan linen trousers, and a sky blue linen button up. We were dressed to be "Egypt" the sky, the Nile, the earth and the trees. We stood in the hallway for a while, and it was soggy it was so hot, and I remember Himself smoking cigarettes by the big window at the end. I laughed and people watched, speculating on the different relationships. The young euro girl and her sexy lover, the older american woman in new hijab bickering with her devout hubby-to-be over money and some papers she wanted him to sign, the local couples and then us, the King and Queen . On my wedding day, I felt like the sun and the moon, it was so important to us. We left the bureau and walked across the square to get "sugar cane juice" downed a tankard fast, and could not stop laughing! Then we went to the jewelry bazarrs and had our rings made and I got my diamond set in a really unique ring, and then... off to the hospital to spend a few hours with his mother. We didn't put our wedding rings on until she held them in her hands and gave us her ok. It was a pretty overwhelming moment. Then like thundercats, we jumped in the car, and rocketed to Hurghada through the night. We made it just as the sun came up, stopped for breakfast and then crashed by the water for the next week! Dancing at Papas beach, diving the Red Sea, a few days in Sharm, then another rocket overnight to Cairo spend a few days at the Grand Hyatt, dinner cruises, dancing, etc.. then back to DC.
And still, I can't believe it really happened to me.

Cosmo, I can't believe you made me acknowledge Lazoughly and romantic in the same one sentence! But you did - wonderful story! Ps. Since you are a fellow DC-ite - need to hangout in DC soon! (I live and work downtown) Posts: 2238 | From: Mother Earth | Registered: Jun 2004

cosmo you were so beautiful that day, sounds so wonderful. but love can make even the worst things seem perfect hehe. As for who i will marry, and the comment that i cant remember his es user name, well that is because i became friends with this man months and months ago and we only spoke through here through 2 pm's before switching over to instant messengers. And i dont have to defend my decision, sometimes you just know when it is right and considering i had been unable to feel for any new person before through the years during the on and off with the other 2 the fact that i find that i want to marry this man is amazing to me and if i feel it i better take it. Life is far to short to waste time with the what if's. It isnt auto or v or cleaner, or batty hahahahaha i will announce his name after the marriage has occured. Just be happy for me, i have let go of the bad past, crossing my fingers and looking to a new future. We can never know what will happen if we dont try. I will give you some details, he is sweet and loving, a few years younger than me, doesnt depend on his family to say what he will or will not do, lives on his own, works very hard for hours a day,, sometimes too many hours i must say. He is absolutely gorgeous and very respectful to me. Has completed his military and already holds a passport as he has lived in the UK at one point, now resides in egypt. As for the rest, which is simply the name that will be told later as i happily announce our marriage complete. As for my children, they know i talk to him, my youngest has spoken to him online herself.. i have not told them of my plans for the simple reason of if anything goes wrong i dont want them to be disappointed with it. They will be happy for me no matter what. This is something i realize has been decided suddenly believe me i know, its not my usual behavior to just jump but its time to step away from the thinking and thinking and thinking again, it got me no where but hurt. its time to trust and believe in completely as he has never given me any reason not to. We both are counting the days

Mabrouk Mystic, you have been on ES long enough to know it all! Let us know how the Lazoughly goes! Maybe they renovated it???? If they did I am on my way to renew my vows and I will wear the dress ES chooses! Posts: 2238 | From: Mother Earth | Registered: Jun 2004

hahahaha karah, well thank you to all those that replied on what you wore. It has actually helped me get an idea of what i will wear cause i had no clue before. And who knows maybe my sweet will step up himself and say who he is hehe. I highly doubt and know i dont know it all hahahaha i wont claim to know even close to it all. All i know for sure is that it has been a long time since i have smiled this much or felt this... you all wondered how i could love the 2 that i did, well they each held different qualities that i looked for, affection and love and desire to marry with one, stability and strength, understanding and faithfulness in the other... i often wished i could combine them into one man, well wish has been granted, i have all of that through one man. Thank you allah for listening to my prayers.

I can't believe it either. I wonder if the ex-husband is still going to live out in the driveway in his RV trailor.

good god, she doesn't sound like she's met him in person yet. i'm all for 'to each her own' but this is plain and simple an unstable person in need of professional help.

Bubbles, post some pictures of yourself on a webcam with a silky slip on and I assure you, they will come!
You know what's sad about this whole situation? Is her so-called "friends" cheering her on to marry some guy she's never met. Real friends wouldn't encourage her to marry so quickly.

Bonzo, again, you've taken the words right out of my mouth. It irks me that people put these fluffy, cotton-wool wrapped responses of total encouragement on here. I really didn't want to put a dampener on things for Mysticheart, but when people are egging her on like this, they really aren't helping matters.

Very, very, very sad indeed. It's ironic that her same "friends" are the first to preach to everyone here about waiting, meeting, taking it slow.
