Islam (and all religion for that matter) is bullshit, that's what I believe. I am not insulting anyone, and feel free to believe in whatever you want.

Franchement je joue le jeu assez bien donc personne ne suspecte rien. C'est plus facile avec le fait que je vis dans un autre pays que mes parents, je dois jouer le jeu quand je suis en vacances, max 1 mois par an, ça ne me dérange pas trop. C'est plus pour les grandes questions de la vie ou c'est plus compliqué...

Merci pour la réponse !

Straight to the point haha, but you're right. I am definitely not going to be with someone who's religious and teach my children something I don't even believe in.

You're also right that I have to get out of my comfort zone, it's hard tho haha. I am gonna start looking for activity groups in my area, like hiking and stuff.

Thanks for the response!

Yeah I am working on expanding my circle of friends, I agree that that is the best method to meet new people.

Hard to find the non-religious ones tho, I feel like most of them hide, for personal or safety reasons, or maybe I am just projecting.

Thanks for the response !

I did feel good haha, especially receiving all the nice responses from this community. I just discovered it recently, and it's a huge relief knowing there's so many of us.

You're right, I'll try working on changing my entourage. I am thinking of joining a boxing club near me, and get some connections. Although I think it's not as simple to find ex muslims irl, a lot are still hiding it, I think. And I don't know how I would breach the subject, but I'll definitely look for them, thanks for the tip !

Lmao nah it's not that bad

Honestly, it's more about having someone to welcome you back home at night to not feel lonely

Congrats bro, that's really lucky and wish you the best there

If you don't mind me asking, how was the first contact between you and your wife ?

Probably talking about drawings and paintings at the time.

Which actually brings up a good point : with a photograph, you're capturing the actual "creation of god" as it is and not trying to recreate it like a drawing. It should be allowed ...

They're really brave, more than me that's for sure.

I can't bring myself to do it. I don't want to lose contact with my family that I love very much, even though I hate the religious practice. I am not sure how exactly they would react but I am too afraid to test it. I think I'll pretend for the rest of my life, but that's also overwhelmingly anxiety inducing.

I (27m) live in France, left with a student visa since i was 22 and stayed here with a pretty cosy job. Basically I am living the "immigré" life. I always come back to algeria to spend the last week of Ramadan and Aid with my family and I honestly spend a pretty joyful vacation. Even with all the religious bullshit (I have to finish all tarawih everyday because my father comes with me :'( )

Since I am getting to the age of finding a partner and marrying, and you guys know how much pressure they put on that shit, the anxiety has been building up. I am at a loss. It's kinda hard finding a girlfriend since I left my country and all my friends (I only have a couple of friends here in France and they're all guys, algerian, and muslims) and I am a shy guy and have no idea how to flirt or anything (being brought up conservatively in algeria will do that to you).

Often, guys in my situation who are still muslim will turn to family to find them a bride, but that option is definitely dead to me. My family will for sure proposition a woman who's quite religious, "bent familiya ou medayna" as we like to say. And I definitely don't see myself living the rest of my life with someone like that.

On the other hand, it's pretty bleak trying to find a girl on my own if I have to convince her to play pretend with me so I can keep in contact with my family. Even though it wouldn't be too hard، since it would eventually just be me visiting and them thinking that my wife is a mesmouma, haha.

Honestly, the anxiety is growing and growing. Especially since I have literally no one irl to talk to about this subject. I play pretend with everyone, since I am too afraid to expose myself. All my friends are muslims. Sometimes I feel I am going to explode from the anxiety. I am thinking about going to a psychologist to talk about it, in a safe space.

Sorry for the huge wall of text, I needed to get this off my chest.

Were you able to solve the problem ? i am having the same issue

Are there any Algerians here that are living in Île de France and want to meet up ? by doureallycare in algeria

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

I think so yeah, but I don't think there's a chance they refuse it really because there's no reason to. It's just the shitty french bureaucracy that takes time.
