[QUOTE]Originally posted by Samarra_Anissa: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by ?????: [qb] Is it really so important to you all, getting to know who is the person behind the nickname? [/qb][/QUOTE]Because some of us, a think minority actually have this Egyptian/Westerner relationship in every aspect of our lives. Its not a online affair, a vacation romance; its a daily thing and will be a part of us for the rest of our lives. I hate to use this type of analogy but....: Think if it as you've lost a limb. You had your leg or arm amputated and you must get used to a prosthesis and go through rehabilitation. Seriously a cross-cultural marriage when it happens just like a marriage in which the person who is the same faith and lives in your community is a massively life altering event. Then you have some woman who claims she had the same life altering event but its a mole on her face. Yeah like how the pompous French Royals would powder their face and stick gems or metal stars on their face and call it a beauty mark! :rolleyes: So thats how I see it. Something that can be removed, washed off, costumes put away in the closet and pretend like it never happened versus having a limb removed. Its irritating. I ran across a few of these "vacation wives" in Alex during my last trip. I wasn't in tiptop condition and my jaw was throbbing. I seen the Orfi wife and her husband, trying their best to chat it up with a fellow American, my mother. Yeah I was rude. But half way through the tour my sister in-law and brother in-law finally caught on to why it bothered me so much. Finally after 3 hours, my Mother ran into this couple like 6 times she finally blurted out that the Orfi husband gave her the creeps and there is something wrong with him. The Orfi husband asked a number of "financial questions" and wanted to hook my mother up with his cousin. Somehow this didn't bother his American Orfi wife in the least. This a-hole wanted my mother to invest in his cousins business and see how "she liked him". It made me sick. After that point my in-laws and I did our best to build space between these "orfi" type young men and my mother. Loads of gigilo looking a-holes were trying to speak with my mother. They assumed that an older woman who appears to be financially comfortable would be interested. They assumed that since I was married to an Egyptian that I and my in-laws wouldn't take offense. Not all Egyptian/Westerners see it the same way. [/QB][/QUOTE]
