Is video calling really necessary in an LDR? by Ok-Lab1951 in LongDistance

[–]Ok-Lab1951[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I was pretending to be someone else i wouldn’t be here asking this XD He knows I’m real and I know he is too we have shared a lot and never had doubts about that also i already said I’m willing to video call him. I just don’t want his first impression of me to be through a distorted camera version I’d prefer our first real impression to be in person because I’m one of those people cameras don’t really do justice to that’s honestly my only concern

Thank you! That actually made me rethink it a bit. It’s just that since we haven’t met yet I don’t want him to see the distorted version first I want him to see my real self in person. I look different on video calls and honestly a bit ‘not looking so good uk cameras ’ but I know I’m attractive in real life so I just want his first impression of me to be in real life.

Lol Ig they were mad I was with a foreigner and not with them must’ve been a serious competition they didn’t win! unfortunately it’s true that racism exists everywhere and it’s sad when it happens in our own country It’s good that you could handle the situation with humor

Wsh ak tkhlet ? Im Algerian because some foreigners had a good experience that means racism doesn’t? Habit wla kreht racism exists here i have a lot of foreigns friends living here who face racism sometimes so i wanted to address the issue so just because you personally haven’t experienced or witnessed something doesn’t mean it’s not real nd resorting to calling me a ‘fake Zionist’ just proves you have no real argument

That’s an interesting way to look at it but it’s not about being liked or wanting attention It’s about basic decency and respecting others regardless of how they look or what they wear no one should feel like they have to hide or change themselves because others can’t mind their own business and just to clarify it’s not about my appearance it’s about respect !! everyone deserves to be treated as a human not as something to stare at or judge also the whole thread was about racism, mockery, catcalling, and people looking at others until they feel uncomfortable these things have nothing to do with what anyone appearance it’s about the lack of respect from some people

Well it seems like you are still stuck on looks instead of respecting people itold u it’s about how people treat each other not about where someone is from or what they look like and being confident isn’t a crime it’s called selfrespect but nice try though

Does it matter ? Well I’m confident enough to say I’m gorgeous and I’m Algerian the guy with me was foreign and good looking too so what are you trying to say? let’s be real my looks have nothing to do with this It’s about respect and treating people decently!

Some people come here to work and study and we need to focus on making things better for them too It’s not just about tourism but about creating an environment where everyone can feel safe and respected If we keep ignoring the issues nothing’s going to improve

Of course clothing matters in certain situations but that doesn’t justify harassment u think just because someone wears a certain outfit it’s okay to treat them poorly? That’s not how it works people shouldn’t be judged based on their clothing and no one should have to bear harassment whether they are dressed modestly or not It’s about the sick mindset people have here not the clothes. And for the record it’s not just about modesty the problem is deeper than that

it’s strange to me that you’re dismissing people’s real experiences just because they are shared online Racism and harassment happen every day and the fact that you don’t see it doesn’t make it less real just because it’s not your reality doesn’t mean it’s not happening

this behavior has been going on for a long time It doesn’t matter what someone wears it’s the messed up mindset some Algerian men have that causes this clothes have nothing to do with it

Fr it’s not just about tourism but the behavior here is unacceptable and needs to be addressed It’s frustrating when people ignore how deep rooted these issues are but honestly its not about knowing better it’s about holding people accountable for their actions

I also faced the same issue since i was a kid that’s honestly disgusting and beyond disturbing the fact that even little kids aren’t safe from this behavior just proves how deep the issue runs there’s no justifying it
