[QUOTE]Originally posted by metinoot: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by citizen: [qb] It sounds like he's a glass half empty kind of person. Was he ever ecstatically happy when he was in Egypt? Maybe he's just naturally a discontented sort of person? Plenty of those around. He needs to stop feeling sorry for himself and thank God, since he's religious, for all his blessings. Most Egyptians in Egypt curse everything Egyptian by the way! It's a national hobby, though they don't like outsiders doing it so much. Jobs are scarce, life is expensive, education and health care are worthless unless you have loads of money. He must have family members who are struggling. [/qb][/QUOTE]Didn't you move to Egypt and then get married raise children with your Egyptian hubby in Egypt? My ex husband did travel outside of Egypt to Europe several times before making his migration to USA on his own visa before even meeting me. Yes it was hell the entire time we were married, he had plenty to bitch about, and mind you I was put through hell myself. Yes racism exists, but USA is far more open-minded towards foreigners and other faiths than most of Europe; a fact my ex appreciates whole-heartedly. He turned down a couple of student visas to Europe before migrating to America. I knew when we got married it was going to be hell dealing with the knee-jerk reaction to 9/11. I actually was far more vocal and angry, vindictive about the racism both of us suffered. Now my ex calms me down when someone treats him poorly. This year on the anniversary of 9-11 I didn't get a response from him after several phone calls; so I went down to his work and waited for him to finish a task on the opposite end of the corporate campus I didn't have access to. I broke down in sobs I was so scared something happened to him. He actually was proud I was so concerned, but annoyed I made him look like an ass for taking so long to get lobby. :D Despite the fact my ex is an very tall strong and physically imposing man who has had hand to hand combat training; I still worry every day about him. We've been divorced for 4 years, it takes him 5 months to tell me about some belligerant jerk walks up to him and calls him "Osama bin Ladin". He knows I will react, and hunt the bastard down! Makes his mom proud of me, she feels safe for him knowing I am in his corner. Yes there is racism, probably more than several times over what is here in the USA in anthropos' culture. But I prefer to acknowledge how difficult it is to be a first generation immigrant, let alone an immigrant from a culture that is heavily persecuted in the west. [/QB][/QUOTE]
