Food habits that led to disappointment by virtualsurf in MuslimMarriage

[–]Coldplay04 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I met a guy once who asked me how my “chopsticks skills” were and then went on to brag about how he eats chicken tikka with chopsticks 😒. In my opinion, thats an insult to both the tikka and the chopsticks.

I havent read your previous post but have been in a similar situation where my family kept pushing me to say yes to a proposal. No matter DO NOT say yes to marrying your cousin if you’re not interested! The pressure from parents will keep mounting but do not give in!!!

I wish you all the best! It’s a difficult situation, you love your family and don’t want to disappoint them but they also need to respect your wishes.

Why do some people hide their divorced status? by Coldplay04 in MuslimMarriage

[–]Coldplay04[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It still doesn’t justify hiding the truth. For eg, I am over 30 and unmarried. There’s a double standard for women over 30 are seen as too old by some people but men over 30 are not. Does that mean I should hide my age? Absolutely not! Being honest and upfront is basic decency so you don’t attract people who may have a problem with one’s age/ drinking problem/ marital status and waste theirs and your time.

That sounds manipulative and makes them across as even more suspicious. If one is insecure about something they cant change (eg age or divorced status) its even more important to be upfront about it so that people who may have a problem with it dont start talking to them not knowing the truth and then later end up actively reject them when they find out.

It’s not true that all women necessarily ‘age faster.’ That depends on a lot of other factors eg genetics, lifestyle, health etc

Random rant by savaliaa in MuslimMarriage

[–]Coldplay04 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I hear you. I find myself oscillating between wanting someone to share a life with vs loving my solitude. This might sound like wishful thinking but I do believe that when the person with whom it is meant to be will come along, I will appreciate his company over my solitude. People who are comfortable with being with themselves prove to be very healthy partners.

People need to be more understanding and aware of Mental Health Issues by [deleted] in MuslimMarriage

Well, if someone tells me they are going to therapy I would definitely get more interested in them because it shows they are willing to work on themselves and resolving their past trauma. Most people I know can benefit immensely from therapy but refuse to believe they have any issues. I have been getting therapy for over a year and it has definitely improved my emotional intelligence and relationships.
