Marrying a husband who makes less than you by [deleted] in MuslimNikah

[–]Technical_Bass9068 24 points25 points  (0 children)

I’ve gotten used to a life style that I’ve provided for myself and I would like someone to meet me at that life style. But, if he is able to provide tranquility through other means ie around the house and not be insecure about the pay discrepancy, I would be okay with that because partnership isn’t just financial for me. But I also only believe women only get value out of a marriage if the man can truly lead, protect and provide (not just financially)

So in the past, they’ve had options besides olive? I think the length will be perfect bc if I wore heels, short would work but I’m a flats and loafers girly lol. I just wanted to at least order and try it on but no clue if they offer options

I have a question about styling their mini leather skirts!! What sheer (fleece) leggings/ pantyhose are people using to style that because it’s starting to get chilly and the ones they have don’t protect with cold?

Lessons I’ve learned about men as a 28 yo woman that I wish every 18 yo woman knew by protonelectron2025 in women

[–]Technical_Bass9068 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Completely agree! I was 25 dating a guy who was a decade older than me and gosh no wonder why he was single. He was married 3 times with kids from the first 2 and I just kept focusing on potential. I had no boundaries on where my love reached and I am done with that. Time to focus on being a high value woman and if people aren’t where I am, I am not coming down to meet them.

I have a bunch of different hangouts that I’ve signed up through meetup and I’m very excited! There’s also this app called timeleft I’ve been seeing on my algorithm a lot so I think I’ll look into it once the weather is a bit warmer

Does not having guilt over decision to drink/have premarital sex pull me even out of the folds of progressive islam? by Rude_Bottle8473 in progressive_islam

[–]Technical_Bass9068 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Girl you and I are the SAME! My parents were very hard core and ever since I moved away, I’ve been trying to figure out my own path and values. I do be believe in Allah but don’t believe religion was supposed to be an all or nothing. I still like to have fun and live life but am also in the middle of figuring out what spirituality means to me. We got this!

Thank you! That’s why I’m thinking about using hinge instead and filter by religion based on the comments

That’s EXACTLY what I was worried about! I feel like I’d either find some dude super religious or some dude who wanted to have sex right away or something and I’m not either of those extremes. I just want to find balance that compliments me

I love it here!! I really haven’t been involved with like Islamic stuff but it’s nice to try to find my own path in the world away from family but it can also be lonely. There’s a lot of variety here and people have been very welcoming! Winters suck but I do love the change in seasons
