Left In The Middle

Beep Beep……Make this stupid miss call alert sound stop…… Beep Beep…..maybe if Ignore it it’ll go away ….. Beep Beep….. FUCK, this phone is relentless…

You have a new message from the Wise One.

I’m gonna kill her , why is this dudette sending me a message so early in the morning

Wise One: hey girls , I have gr8 news Suha just got engaged, now moving on to the next girl on my list :)

List, since when does she have a list !

DC: hala
Wise One: hey, did you get my message :)
DC: la ya shaikha, why am I calling meen saba7 rabi then. “moving on to the next girl on the list” …sha3’alah 7’a6abah and I have no clue, I thought match making was my thing :)
Wise One: match making for marriage not like 7adret janabek
DC: Tomato, Tomato“W”, so tell me who’s next on your “List”?
Wise One: The Scissor Sisters :)
DC: Ya salam, who the fuck are The Scissor Sisters and how come I don’t know of them
Wise One: actually, u met them once when u were here over Christmas and they are friends from college
DC: whatever, if they left a good impression I would’ve remembered them! (Snob I know, u don’t need to point it out but remember I was sleepy and cranky).
So tell me, where am I on ur “List”?
Wise One: hmmmm ur actually @ the bottom of it, right before Dala3
DC: ASS, why are we the last 2 on ur stupid list?!!!
Wise One: because Dala3 is a child and your just waaaaaay too picky, plus I thought u didn’t wanna get married
DC: that’s besides the point , we are ur best friends and u put the stupid Scissor Sisters before us ,LUCY, YOU'VE GOT SOME EXPLAINING TO DO !!!
Wise One: they are girls I can actually work with you on the other hand are HOPELESS !! Don’t get me started on your list and frankly I just don’t have access to the pool your looking for
DC: Fine , I don’t want your bedwan aslan , 7’ali The Scissor Sisters yenfa3oki. Ba3deen,what’s wrong with my list?
Wise One: it’s allover the place, you just want everything…


I don’t want everything, all I’m looking for is the perfect guy for me. A guy that gets me, loves me and appreciates me just the way I am.

behold my "list" and you be the judge...

1- I’m sucker for humor so I’m looking for a funny guy but not the big look at me HAHA funny, I’m talking about the sarcastic kind

2- I ‘m looking for a smart guy that knows he’s smart and doesn’t take it for granted. A guy that knows what he wants and goes for it

3- Whoever said looks don’t count surely wasn’t talking about me! I tend to go for the hot guys. I know I’m shallow but I honestly can’t help it!
When u see these gorgeous guys walking hand in hand with girls that aren’t as good looking and u start wondering what the guy is doing with her, what’s so special about her… well I wanna be one of those girls ( I know , I feel sorry for my self sometimes)!!!!!!!!!!!!
My friends keep pointing out how idiotic that is of me, you gotta be the better looking one in the relationship. Fuck No; if I’m gonna be waking up to the same face everyday, it sure as hell better be a good one, seriously!

4- I’m looking for a guy who has faith, a guy that prays 5 times a day, doesn’t drink, gamble or smoke

5- I’m looking for a guy that loves to go out party and dance the night a way (preferably a salsa and meringue fan :))

6- I’m looking for a stylish guy that loves fashion and is secure enough with his sexuality to flaunt it.

7- Last but not least, I’m looking for a virgin, yes a virgin I said it and if that’s impossible to find these days then I’ll settle for guy that honestly doesn’t expect me to be one.
I’ll be dammed if I allow myself to end up with a guy that expects of me what he isn’t willing to do or give himself.
If Johnny wants to do some shopping he shouldn’t expect Frany to be closed for business!!


Your asking for the impossible, your asking for too much, you’re not all that to be this picky, religious and party animal don’t mix needless to say a virgin, you’re just shooting for the stars… I’ve heard it all!

Apparently, these days you gotta choose a side and stick to it, either religious or open mined, it’s not a buffet to pick and choose from.
No more room for the middle ground. after all, someone's middle could be someone else’s extreme.

What's happening to this world?

Middle class is disappearing almost everywhere, the middle child is usually the one that’s overlooked, tall girls or short ones no one ever says average, you either wear a mini or a maxi skirt cus midi is apparently out. You’re either driving on the left lane or the right lane cus the middle one is just a layover on your way to the other 2...

everyone keeps on telling me that i have to be realistic because certain things just don’t mix well. The classic carbs and proteins dilemma, we all know how bad that combo is but would you have it any other way ?

When we are young, we are happy and eager to experiment with everything until we settle on the things we come to love. We can get away with eating all sorts of yummy fatty things like chocolates , sweets, fries, burgers, pizza , pastries u name it. However, as we get older we realize that what used to work for us no longer does. Reality kicks in and we end up giving up many of the things we love but are unfortunately bad for us, things that have a one way speed ticket to our thighs !!!
Those of us that submit to this new unfortunate reality start to watch what we eat and how we eat it. We starts making tradeoffs, if I’m gonna have dessert I better not order an appetizer, both is just not an option :(

Has dieting these days become an inevitable evil we are doomed to live with in every aspect of our life?

All I know is that I’m left in the middle looking for someone to stay still with me....is this too much to ask?

You are looking for impossible, and what's up with girls going after metro-sexuals?

u may think it's impossible I choose to remain optimistic ...as for the metro sexuals, I personally think they are more fun. Too much testosterone is a turn off for me, I’m more into guys that take care of themselves and that will enjoy doing some of things I love to do :)

You may think that now, but you'll soon realise that you're looking for a life partner and not a girl-friend. By the way love and lists don't go well together, that's why it's always a new and surprising feeling when you do fall for someone, it's someone that you didn't expect to fall for.

i know what ur saying and I partially relate 2 some of it. however, I don't really believe in the whole u can't help who you fall in love with thing!....and no I’m not a cold hearted person, I just believe we can all control our emotions @ a certain point. We can't help who we get attracted and click with true, but @ the beginning of a relationship we still have that control factor, we just allow our selves to get carried away.
We can control who we fall in love with but falling out of love is whole different story.

I've been looking for this middle ground for a while now, and if it exists in me (religious, just not over the top, and party loving so to say) then why is are there no guys out there that are a mixture of both? Why do they have to be one or the other. It's so frustrating.

5. Dancing salsa or meringue. Not a hope darling, we only dance to pick up chicks. You can convince him to take that up after you get together.

7. A guy who is not a virgin but expects you to be has serious insecurity issues!!! I agree with you here. And, to be honest, I'd always worry a virgin girl would spend to much time worrying she missed out on something when she hit her horny forties...

6. Goes with good-looking. These are the same requirements. Don't know what you are worried about though. Dress well and work out, and you will be hot. And not aerobics, actual exercise!! Unless you've got some serious horse-head issues, it can be fixed.

4. Ha ha! I know a couple of guys like that, but they fail all of your other criteria. Wait until you have kids, and then he'll probably become more religious.

2. You wanna make sure that you also know what you want and go for it too, or else he'll eventually end up sleeping with someone who does... There is nothing worse than dating a girl who likes you for being smart but can't be bothered to be the same herself.

It sounds like your social circle is not throwing much your way.

Still finding your blog very entertaining.

Arabian night,

bored,
Merci, Merci alikhandro aldama :) spoken like a true .... good or bad i'm a big girl , i can handle it ;)
and in shaa allah , meen bo2ak lebab elsamah

agnon,
dude I’m curious , where u from?
5. maybe
7. that's where role playing comes in ;)
6. Not necessarily
4. I know , either or remember and that's not what I’m looking for
2. I’m smart enough not to allow myself to end up with someone who will drag me down rather than encourage me to go fwd.

p.s my social circle sucks these days :(

Mystique ,
thanks , I’m a huge fan or urs... and i hope u change ur mind

lol, I was ok on the first couple of items on ur list, was thinking hey i fit the profile, then you had to take a turn on me.. shame !!

Ok, so you want a guy who is has a sense of style, take cares of himself, meaning proper nails and well groomed, is not ashmed to show he is in love with you and can dance salso. Then you say you want him to pray 5 times a day, not smoke, not drink, not gamble, and ohh be a virigin. Looks like someone will grow old alone.

Good luck in finding ur prince charming.

As for the virigin, its best if you dont ask him and he doesnt ask you. And if anyone asks the other, deny it, deny it like your life counted on it, coz in a way it does.

If you dont mind me saying, u have great post, just that you sort of combine different ideas into one post. Like this post has three different themes to it, and i really love reading them and commenting just i seem to forget what i wanted to comment on when i reach the end of it. dont you feel it may be better, at least for ur readers, if u sort of had one idea per post this way we can read it more focused and not be distracted by different stuff in same post. just a suggestion.

Mademoiselle SVP elrezg mag6o3 7’eer shar!!

none taken and i appreciate the offer but i can take care of matters myself :)

who is we btw , are u one of those guys that like to refer to themselves in plural cus they feel it gives them more depth and importance or are u actually a head of gang in which case i would have no choice but to report u ?!!!!

Twix,
a shame indeed !

I’m the cup is half full kinda girl so i'm still optimistic for now and if it doesn't happen it doesn't I’m ok with my life as it is :)

and no i refuse to base my life on a lie. i'm just a straight shooter and i don't like shady shortcuts. go back and read the post, if he's not a virgin he shouldn't expect me to be one...I can't always judge a person by what he has done in the past but i can judge him on who he is today , make any sense?

ur not the only one to tell me that, ToMomoshi said that same thing to me earlier. this is in a way a reflection of my life and i write what i feel. regarding this topic or topics as u pointed out i'm as confused as the piece itself everything is bubbly, cloudy and clashes and i couldn't channel my thoughts and feelings. since, i write what i feel it was reflected in the writing but I promises to try to be more structured for u next time ;)
let me try to relate the topics for u
apparently, i'm currently a very picky person with ”unrealistic” expectations that refuses to settle for less than perfect and i want the best of both worlds, something i find difficult to find in men these days and i'm afraid of what will happen in the future and if reality will force me to settle for something less than what i hope for.... good enough for u or do u need more clarification :) ?

An English-speaking capital city (unless you try and ask for directions). I am not inclined to specify too much. Balancing my internet presence is really important to my work. We always google each other before first meetings in my field.

Role playing!!! Am laughing my ass off. I was almost going to say I had never tried it, but...

Regarding your social circle, I am interviewing for a flatmate today. I have just turned down Lil' Miss Idiot and her boyfriend Mr. Methodone. It is an excellent way to steal an entire new social circle if, I get it right... Does this kind of thing happen where you are?

hey Mr.Celebrity Agnon,

Fair enough but flat mate just gave it away ;)

But...It’s all about experimentation my friend , the same shirt can be worn in so many different way with the right accessories ;)

That would definitely be a solution, a risky one though. unfortunatly, it's not an option. most people in KSA don’t move out of their homes unless they move to another city/country or get married even then roommates are very uncommon.

Chuckle. In my defense, I am technical, not art. No, flat mate didn't give it away, although... I may have used specific slang... I hope not.

Am not going to discuss role playing with you! How impolite.

Interesting. If you don't move out of home when you are 18 in my country, there must be something wrong with you.
