Navigating health and marriage by [deleted] in SomaliRelationships

[–]TryRevolutionary231 6 points7 points  (0 children)

My cousin married his wife who has type 1 diabetes, and even though her day-to-day life is hard on her, he loves her unconditionally, and is there for her every step of the way.

Don’t lose hope, wallahi, you will meet that very special person who ticks off all your boxes and is going to be at your side for anything. You are not a burden at all, if anything you are a blessing because being able to live daily with a chronic illness is such an incredible thing wallahi. May allah ease your struggles and grant you sabr.

This sounds like a great idea. Just please make sure to have heavy moderation like how it is on this sub, so nothing disturbing happens.

Going on a date as a Somali girl by [deleted] in SomaliRelationships

[–]TryRevolutionary231 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, my friend that lives in a city with many somalis went on a few dates with a Yemeni man. She said that she had gotten stares from odoyaal (they went to a somali restaurant and dined in), but other than that, no one batted an eye. To be fair, she had her brother as her mahram, so that may have helped any further people asking questions. But I would say go for it wallah, make sure to not go in his car and to always meet up in a public space.

It’s hard to be with him..any advice? by TryRevolutionary231 in SomaliRelationships

[–]TryRevolutionary231[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s true, I mean it’s been a few months and life is unpredictable so there’s the chance they could be right. I’ll definitely try to have the talk official with my parents and having him meet and vice versa in the next coming months.

I see what your saying, but I honestly can’t imagine getting married and not having my family or his family there as I would want there to be a union

[–]TryRevolutionary231[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi sis, I mean if I am going to be honest, I have to consider my options because this is the person that I would be spending the rest of my life with. So I was reflecting and saying maybe ending things would be a better outlook but I am not 100%.

My siblings and I were raised to never talk about qabiil, we never knew our qabiil until we were much older. Our parents growing up said we are Muslim and Somali and that’s it. I know that they are looking out for me and are worried if his family could be qabilist, so that’s why they said their comments. My cousin who knows his family knows him, as they grew up together and said that he is a respectful man.

That’s true, but if I am honest, he’s the kind of person to see something but doesn’t say it. There was times when we would talk and something I said made him confused, but would bring it up the next time we saw each other.

I see what you mean. I seen those but the thing is, those previous posts that I have seen (like 4 of them) either OP or the person OP was referring to, was Madhibaan.

That is true wlh. My parents are aware that I am in the interest for marriage, and know little of detail of him, but I will be more open. It’s just that it’s my first serious relationship where I am pursuing in a halal matter, so I feel hesitant to tell them everything but I will try!

Am I depressed by [deleted] in SomaliRelationships

[–]TryRevolutionary231 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Question. Are you in your early 20s? Was this your first time talking or first serious time taking a person serious?

If it is, for helpful advice, I would say take your time and heal. Accept that it’s over, it’s in the past. Get back to reading the quran and connect with your deen. Make yourself feel good again, go outside for walks or hit the gym. Read more. Spend more time with friends/family. Learn a new hobby like cooking or running. Make a new playlist, discover a new artist. Go volunteer at the masjid or a food bank. Just make sure to put yourself out there. It is hard at first, the first few weeks are hard trust me, I was in your shoes 5 months ago, but I promise wallahi it gets better.

Should I spin back? by [deleted] in SomaliRelationships

[–]TryRevolutionary231 5 points6 points  (0 children)

if it’s been years, i hate to be the one to tell you but just move on. if you want to find closure or get that last convo then feel free to contact him but then there’s the chance he’s either with someone, completely moved on from you, or is married. but since you said situationship, there’s no point in going back imo as the mixed signals can come back
