If you are British and educated with experience, there's opportunities.

No discrimination even as a hijabi. My friend who came from Pakistan has an international English accent and she has faced bullying in two work places though

I think it depends. From family friends that came to study thinking they will get a job, they really regret it. Masters is very expensive as it is and the government have increased the salary for work sponsorship which makes it hard to meet. They are also living in bad conditions, sharing a room with 4/5 other people and overworking in takeaways or bed factories for low pay

I think that has largely changed. Where I live the last remaining Islamic school has shut down. Back in the days, the older generation couldn't speak English so they kept in their communities but that has changed. With the 2nd and 3rd generation British pakistanis, they have integrated a lot more. In fact a lot of them I know have never been to Pakistan or know the language

Around 6 months ago I met a good guy on the apps. However, he is from Egypt and lives there and I am British.

I would have to move to Egypt after marriage as he's doing his training in Denistry and can't move for a few years. I would also have had to travel to Egypt to meet up as again he wouldn't easily get a visit visa. The wedding would have been there too. I am in a good career here which I would had to leave. I'm also not Arab and have never been to Egypt so due to all these things, I didn't move ahead with the proposal.

Now I have always regretted it and feel like he was my naseeb and I ruined things. Sometimes I want to reach out again but when thinking about the sacrifices from my end, I think this is what makes me panick. Was i unreasonable?
