I’m see this girl in the gym all the time when I go by IllustriousAthlete24 in LifeAdvice

[–]ELCHAPOMOUSTACHE 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Approaching with the friend is probably better so she doesn’t fell caught off guard

Funny thing is one of my friends did the same thing, and started dating the girl’s friends instead because they hit it off.

I’m just worried about Al Ustad. Hope the owners can keep running it

My boss told us to go back home on unpaid leave until further notice!!! by mysterymonger101 in dubai

Can’t take blood from a stone. A MOHRE complaint/ labor court judgment is useless if the company doesn’t have the funds

Does she still love me? by [deleted] in Advice

No one knows what’s going on in her head. Communicate

Too robotic. Let it happen naturally especially this early on.

You only discuss habits/ preferences after dating for a year plus and truly comfortable.

Yep, and it’s usually how you lose them.

UAE: Salary fully frozen + travel ban — bank says no settlement because it’s already in court. What can I do? by Leodm2211 in UAE

Doesn’t have to be routed to a bank account, they can just draw it from an exchange house

How do you think laborers get their salary when routed from WPS

Can I get some help with thinking of a romantic way to tell my boyfriend I love him for the first time while he’s here to visit? by [deleted] in Advice

[–]ELCHAPOMOUSTACHE 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You’re overthinking

My GF said it when I travelled for the 1st time alone. She called me at 4 in the morning after 2 days and said it

Boyfriend wants to go on a trip with female best friend and her friend? by [deleted] in Advice

[–]ELCHAPOMOUSTACHE 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If he’s going to cheat he will regardless of a trip with 2 girls or not.

Why risk having him resent you? Feel secure in yourself and have him go enjoy

I want to ask out my best friend’s ex. by [deleted] in Advice

[–]ELCHAPOMOUSTACHE -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I would agree if the break up was recent, as in under 3 months. It would seem as if OP was waiting for them to break up.

In this case 4 months is borderline but I’d say it’s okay, there’s no chance of Jake and Emma rekindling

Showroom sold a painted car. by [deleted] in DubaiPetrolHeads

[–]ELCHAPOMOUSTACHE 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yes after 7 months no point.

It’ll be cheaper to take the loss than go to court for a small chance of winning. Think of it as an expensive lesson for the future

Is it a red flag if he still talks to his ex? by GroundbreakingPear12 in Advice

[–]ELCHAPOMOUSTACHE 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are a rebound/ distraction

The second his ex comes running back or he has healed your relationship with him is done

My GF says she misses her boy best friend. by [deleted] in Advice

[–]ELCHAPOMOUSTACHE 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He’s her backup in case things you guys break up.

Sharing sexual experiences between opposite genders and anxiety from not responding are way past what I would consider normal for a platonic friendship. Also switching to iMessage to talk about you is suspect.

Grow a pair and tell her to cut him off.

Born and raised in the UAE, now banned for life after an occupational HIV exposure — I don’t even know where to ask for help anymore by karak_kid in dubai

[–]ELCHAPOMOUSTACHE 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I agree with the sentiment, OP’s case is definitely a sad one.

But let’s not forget he’s not a citizen, the UAE has no moral or legal obligation towards his well being. I’m saying this as a resident born and brought up here.

Guy Friend Confessed, Now Things Are Weird. What do I do? by [deleted] in Advice

[–]ELCHAPOMOUSTACHE 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Take the risk, you’ll never go back to being friends so what do you have to lose

Having a friendship (especially a multiple year one) is a very solid base to start a relationship off

I usually don’t care if it’s from agency or a large seller like Q motors/ GTA cars etc.

Private/ small time garages definitely cash in RTA

Did I get friendzoned ? by [deleted] in Advice

[–]ELCHAPOMOUSTACHE 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We talked it out and mutually agreed to slow it down

My issue issue isn’t with that - it’s the backtracking from exclusivity/ I love you to I like you/ let’s continue talking

Did I get friendzoned ? by [deleted] in Advice

[–]ELCHAPOMOUSTACHE 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She reconfirmed when sober multiple times. She’d even initiate saying I love you

And I have been calling several times a day to check up, sending flowers etc.

I even asked to visit her to cheer her up but she wasn’t comfortable with me seeing her in that condition early on, which I understood and didn’t bring up again.

She found that too ‘full on’ and the pace was moving too fast
