My grandfather thinks my grandmother is a really special beauty. And for sure she will be different! But I guess that's not what you're looking for... Posted by current (Member # 15059) on :
You know something. Looking for a beautiful woman/man is quite normal. The fact is most of us are attracted to a high degree of beauty. That is specially true with people we don't personally know.
The reality though is that we are attracted to people we know and like and find beauty in them that often others don't see. But we will alway be attracted to beauty or that which we are told is beautiful.
Posted by stayingput (Member # 14989) on :
It's interesting that "beutiful" seems to be the only criteria the men in my husband's family find important (right after virginity, of course). So much so that whether or not the bride is beautiful is THE topic of discussion long after the party and it's always the men's mothers who defend the "not beautiful" girls' other virtues.
I've seen the "beautiful" ones pork right out, immediately after they get hitched and certainly after they get pregnant. Then they stay that way.
Not that weight is a measure of beauty, but she certainly doesn't always stay exactly the same as he married her for too long afterwards.
But then that speaks to the Egyptian obsession with the superficial, doesn't it?
Posted by Questionmarks (Member # 12336) on :
I think 'beautiful' or 'handsome' has another meaning in Egypt, or maybe more meanings, or maybe men look at this different. I don't exactly know what their meaning is,but it took my attention that the men use the word a lot, and in situations where being handsome is no subject to me. For instance, by every new person to meet, they standard question is: Do you think he or she is beautiful? The causin, the waiter or waitress, the friend or friends from the childre, I mean, the waitress is bringing me my coffee, so to me it's not important to even think about the fact that she is beautiful or not. Relatives are relatives, so also there beauty is not a sub ject.(Unless somebody is really beautifull so that everyone would remark that) Most of the time I do not care if a teacher, a policeman, a shopowner is beautiful, so why asking? But again, maybe in Egypt they have other criteria...

Posted by moromono (Member # 16731) on :
thanks all for all your comments but i really wonder what superficial u r talking about !! also why u leave the main topic and talk about beauty only !! i start it saying seeking a creative & special and i just mention beuaties at the end simply every lady see her self the most beauty in the universe and if it didnt see that i dont need her because she will not act as a princess
also i will have one lady in my life so i think it needs to invest my time in searching ,she really desrve that

beauty is in the eye of the beholder.. i see walid is the sexiest man i have ever seen and to my friends he is a fat nasty man..but when i look that their men i see what they must see when they look at walid. so i guess it depends on how we all view someone as beautiful or handsome... good luck in yr searc.. if yr looking for a trophy wife / princess u will probably not find her and if u do she may be superficial. and u would get hurt and screwed around on. be careful in yr choice and choose wisly for u must marry her and be happy.. not everyone will make u happy...........

In the most fairy tales, princesses like to get married. Mostly they marry a prince or a heroe. I don't believe there are any princes visiting this board, he isn't as rich either, so at least this man must be a heroe. In fact he is, regarding the courage to place his unusual proposal on a board like this. I only hope he once will have that same courage to show his princess to us...

princess: is the lady that knows well how to talk and how to smile ,when to crazy and when to act wisley appreciate well her man ,knows how to wear ,when to laugh ,how to dress ,caring about her self ,hair cut ,....etc
creative : to be diffrent as i rarely see a diffrent between ladies in egypt there is alot of creatives sure i know but ratio is 1 :1000 other do the same activites every day the marriage cermony are the same ,even the songs are the same
Tiger Lily said Creative in what - bringing ever changing food on the dining table??

i'm a creative person that like to do diffrent things and hate the routine so i need someone like me
for example u can egyptian ladies did u went to a chineese resturant before i doupt that any one answer yes

Not sure what this has to do with being a princess, but I'm wondering ~ how exactly should she dress, talk and smile? ~ what do you mean by "appreciating well her man"? ~ what do you mean by "caring about herself, haircut etc."? ~ how does a person "act wisely"?

I'm not Egyptian, but I do know Egyptian ladies who go to Chinese restaurants. And Indian, Italian, French, Thai restaurants as well, for that matter.

Possible. But from what you write here you sound just like millions of other Egyptian guys, looking for a pretty, well-made up girl who cooks their dinners and is nice and entertaining. So I'm wondering why you think you are being so special and creative.

Plot summary for First Knight (1995):
" Lancelot lives by the sword. In fact, they're next door neighbours, so teaming up to fight for money comes pretty naturally. Lady Guinevere, on her way to marry King Arthur is ambushed by the evil Sir Malagant. Fortunately Lancelot is lurking nearby and he rescues his future queen. They fall in love, but Guinevere still fancies the idea of wearing a crown, so she honours her promise to Arthur. Can Lady Guinevere remain faithful, or will this Pretty Woman become a lady of the knight ?"
Mromono, stop watching fairtales and stop being so hopelessly romantic or you will completely lose touch with reality.
Btw, Julia Ormond is already 44 so perhaps you wouldn't mind an 'older' princess?? Posted by The Ministry of Common Sense (Member # 15597) on :

If Julia Ormond is too old, maybe he would prefer Shirley Temple:

Maybe I'm stubid but I still fail to see what should be so special and creative about those things.
Egyptian girls care about their apperance more than girls from many other countries I've been to. When I take the Cairo Metro I always find it fascinating to watch the women and girls in there. They seem to spend an amazing amount of time and effort on their outfit, makeup etc. Everything has to be the latest fashion and perfectly matched and color-coordinated, from hijab to shoes. Egyptian women who can afford it are constantly running to the hairdresser, getting manicures, pedicures etc. And few Arab women wouldn't even take a walk to the grocer's down the road without full makeup and dress.

ok Dalia i know but as i told you before you can find them similar not diffrent happits or hoppies rarley to find someone special

No one cares, as long as you're not for real, since anything could be sitting on the keyboard tapping away, even my dog. Posted by *Dalia* (Member # 13012) on :
quote:Originally posted by Dzosser: let's see how you can spell arabic correctly in its own alphabet, now THAT would be fun.
Actually, spelling Arabic is easier than spelling many other languages because there is exactly one letter for each sound, whereas in English, German, French etc. one sound can be represented by several letters. That's one of the things I really love about Arabic, and that's why I always recommend that people learn the script instead of relying on transcriptions.
Writing by dictation in Arabic is much easier than doing it in German, or English, for example.
That said -- if I can't write or spell a language halfway decently, I wouldn't write in that language on a public board. (I'm generally speaking here, not in reference to the original poster.) For example, I would be able to follow the gist of a discussion on a French board, but if I wrote a post, it would probably contain several grammar or spelling mistakes, so why would I do that? I'd either learn the language properly, or go to a board where I can express myself better in my own language.
quote:Originally posted by madame f: yes we are being biatchy princesses.But we are always in matching colors so who cares?
Actually, I am perfectly color coordinated at the moment, wearing a lovely combination of black, purple, and lilac, plus Egyptian silver jewelry. Now I wonder if that classifies as "simple, matched colors" ...

LOL, I love these. A lot of truth in there. Posted by Questionmarks (Member # 12336) on :
The temperature is so low in your house that 2 sweaters is a bare minimum if you want to be remotely warm. During the winter it's warmer outside than it is inside. You open the freezer and are excited to find a container of ice-cream,only to open it and discover it's full of homemade soup or stamppot.. When looking in the fridge, you never trust that the yogurt or margarine containers contain what the label says. You were green before it was popular. Why recycle when you can just reuse! You have a pair of wooden shoes in your house. Your china cabinet is filled with Delft. You like pickled herring. You've eaten oliebollen at New Years. You enjoy chocolate sprinkle (hagelslag) sandwiches. You have cousins who wear size 14 shoes and are over 6'4" You wash and reuse plastic cups and plastic cutlery. You have soup and open-faced sandwiches for Sunday lunch. The most frequent phrase uttered growing up was "Turn off the lights!" You get a chocolate letter every year for Christmas. All the tables in your house are covered in tablecloths. You like krokets.
You know that Vla is better than regular old pudding. You drink tea with breakfast, coffee at 10 am, tea at 3 pm, and coffee again at 8 pm (with cookies or biscuits of course!) You have an afghan knitted by your Oma. You collect coupons like they're going out of style. Your Oma had a calendar with everyone's birthdays & anniversaries spelled out in capital letters (bonus points if it hung in the bathroom!) You've been known to recycle aluminum foil. And ziploc bags. You own a special utensil that is only used for cutting cheese. You know that Gouda is the best cheese ever. You have at least 5 relatives with the same name (and somehow you always know which one is being talked about). When you hear all the "new ways to save energy" you yawn and say "I've been doing that all my life!"
You eat your sandwiches open-faced. "What? You want another slice of bread? I'll make you another sandwich." You rarely have both meat and cheese on the same sandwich. You have never met half the relatives at your family reunion You have 100 roles of toilet paper in your house because they were on sale. You put a little water into the jar of tomato sauce and shake it to make sure you got it all out. You have trouble shopping for hats. There should be at least two sizes: 'one size fits all' and 'dutch'. You wipe the last of the butter out of the container with your bun. All your cookies taste like almonds.
You make the bed in your hotel room. You have lace on your windows but not on your underwear. You like dubbel zout drops, and have occasionally tricked a friend into trying one. You've put mayonnaise on your french fries. Your kitchen is filled with milk bags drying, waiting to be reused in the freezer. You have a spoon collection. Your favourite mustard comes in jars that can be reused as drinking glasses. You leave a window open year round to get fresh air.
You eat stroop waffles. You love the colour orange. You have a vegetable garden because there's no way you're paying that much for veggies at the grocery store. Your fridge is always stocked with leftovers. Throw out food? Never! You go to the "Dutch Store" because the smell brings back so many childhood memories. You have pictures of windmills around your house. Everything is Do-It-Yourself - it's cheaper than hiring someone. You use "washandjes" (facecloths that you can put your hand into). You own tea towels and oven mitts patterned with windmills and dancing women in clogs.
You call it "MELK" not "milk". All your cousins have the same names as your brothers and sisters,because everyone is named after Oma and Opa. And finally, you know you're Dutch when.. You're laughing along with this list because you can relate to most it!

BRUTALLY HONEST
"Have You Gained Weight?"
Don't beat around the bush in Germany. If someone asks a question, answer it honestly and expect the same in return. "Yes I have put on a few pounds," is the correct answer.
You've been invited over to a friend's house, and his grandmother serves you a cake she has labored over for hours.
Granny: I had to go all over town to get the ingredients. It's my own grandmother's fruitcake recipe, but you can't get pickled figs and horseradish syrup at the shops anymore!
You have three responses to choose from:
a) Oh, thank you so much. It looks lovely.
b) Oh, thank you, but I'm dieting. I can't eat cake.
c) I don't like fruitcake at all and figs make me swell up and break into a hideous, oozing rash.
If you picked a, you are probably English or American. And even if you can't stand fruitcake, you'll shovel it in to make granny happy. Many well-mannered (or quick-thinking) Americans may also have chosen b.
The third answer, though, is reserved exclusively for Germans. How, after all, can honesty be rude? Why on earth would you lie, say the Germans? You don't like fruitcake, why pretend that you do? And those figs could kill you!
In England or the US, of course, answer c could very well result in a rolling pin upside the head. In Germany, however, it's merely a standard form that human interaction takes. You say what you have to say and that's that. You meet up with a German friend you haven't seen for awhile and chances are he might ask, "Have you gained weight?" It's not meant as an insult, merely a polite inquery.
The bottom line is that the rules of human interaction are different in Germany. Here are a few of them:
Personal invitations of all kinds are to be taken at face value.
"We're having a party, please do come," means "We're having a party, please do come," and not "We feel rude not inviting you in front of these other people, but surely you'll have the grace not to show up." Similarly, "Come over to my house and we'll have tea," means that you should start planning a date and time for that pleasant event. It is not to be confused with the Anglo-American "We should get together sometime," which means "I hope I never see you again."
Yes means yes and no means no.
If you ask whether you can share someone's table (or borrow a pen, or get a ride) and that person says yes, that's the end of it. Even if the person does not smile or tell you to go right ahead, you do not have to ask again. Germans will be perplexed when you insist: "Are you sure? I won't be bothering you, will I? I'll just take this little corner and be done in a minute." For heavens sakes, they said yes already, and it's not like you're asking them to donate a kidney. Just sit down.
Preferences are expressed directly.
If someone offers you tickets to the opera "Siegfried," don't put them off vaguely: "If only it lasted just a tiny bit less than six hours, I'd love to go, but my schedule is jam-packed." If you don't like Wagner, or opera, just say so. Germans will not be offended that you have an opinion that differs from theirs. But ...
You may have to talk about it.
There are consequences for all this directness, and this is one. You may be asked why you don't want to come to someone's party or why you don't like Wagner, and then you must explain. You may even have to have a discussion about it, or possible a debate. But perhaps you can do that over tea. Would you like to come over some time?

Which attitude, Dzosser?
I have stated that *I* feel uncomfortable communicating in a language in which I can't express myself properly. I have not said that everybody else should feel the same way or not post because of that. There are lots of people on this and other boards who are happily posting away despite the fact that their English is anything but perfect. I don't think any of those people give a damn about my opinion regarding this matter.
Besides, as has been stated here, Egyptians often make fun of foreigners speaking Arabic, and so have you. So why is it ok for you and your fellow countrymen but not for others?
You've also tried to make fun of the typical German accent. I don't have a German accent at all, but even if that was the case, it wouldn't offend me because it's true ... that's the way many Germans speak English, and it does sound funny sometimes. So what? But people laughing about an Egyptian mixing up the "b" and the "p" and the sometimes funny results of that is driving Egyptians off this board? Give me a break!
There are many reasons why Egyptians are a minority on this board, I highly doubt that it is because of my *attitude*.

I have put my foot in it quite a few times when living in the US and also in Egypt and had to learn to change my approach to some matters. Now I try to find a balance between being myself and being honest but not offending people too much.

Maybe this quote isn't yours after all ?? It clearly reflects a sarcasm of a nasty nature that you cannot deny.

Sarcasm, yes. Nasty, no.
My sarcasm was due to the use of the term "princess", it has nothing whatsoever to do with the nationality or language capabilities of the poster. Not sure how you came to that conclusion.
There is something about calling a woman a princess that I feel is a bit belittling and derogatory, and I'm not the only woman on here who expressed discomfort with that. A man who is looking for a partner who is on the same level as him, who sees women as actual human beings and doesn't entertain fairy tale phantasies about them, wouldn't ever speak of a "princess". It's a term of endearment you would use with a child, and in that case it's perfectly fine.
The original poster might not be aware of it, he probably thinks it's somehow sweet to speak of a woman as a princess, and I know he didn't mean it in a bad way. But it shows that he has a somehow immature outlook on relationships and on women, and that will not make it easier for him to find what he's looking for.
Or, as another poster expressed it>
If you lower your requirements a bit down a human level and just look for a sweet, loving, pretty in your eyes girl - then im sure she will turn up insted of runing screaming away.
I have no intention of digging into archives, for what? Posted by Dzosser (Member # 9572) on :
[QUOTE]Originally posted by *Dalia*:

Nasty, yes since your reference is of a princess in a fairy tale, that decapitates people.
My sarcasm was due to the use of the term "princess", it has nothing whatsoever to do with the nationality or language capabilities of the poster. Not sure how you came to that conclusion.
My conclusion came from the fact that in arabic we refer to the girl of our dreams as a princess,'AMIRAT A7LAMI'..and the man is refered to as 'FARISS A7LAMI'.. the knight or horseman of my dreams..
There is something about calling a woman a princess that I feel is a bit belittling and derogatory, and I'm not the only woman on here who expressed discomfort with that.
That's because your arabic needs polishing up.

Jesus Christ, talk about dramatics. Dalia didn't say anything that should be classified as "nasty". I'm part of a forum where the majority are American and they often laugh at some of my English mannerisms. When I met Sam's parents and attempted arabic, they thought it great fun (Sam laughs at some of my English, let alone my arabic lol). It’s not even something that happens between different countries. Many English people joke about the Londoner accent and the way they say things, just like we joke about the northern accents and their ways. If I came on here (or any forum) and said I was looking for my prince charming, or knight in shining armour, I wouldn't act the wounded child because it made people laugh, and *shock horror* they linked to a cartoon picture. I’m an adult, and can appreciate good sarcasm!
And considering the OP is looking for a nonegyptian woman, I think it a GOOD thing that the girls here are showing him that most women will not go giddy at being called a princess. If he wants to call a woman that, he can find an Egyptian one, but if he wants a western woman, then he should know calling a woman princess will just get him ridiculed.
