Do you get awkward on first dates? I become so awkward!

[AbdiWahab252]

Only once. I went out on a date with this cambaro I met at a conference. She was my type: young, naive, and Westernized. I am not an inquisitive person because I never ask questions because I don't want to be questioned myself. We went out to the museum and then dinner. Somehow the conversation landed on the topic I dread the most - Who do you know in town? This question is like your phone's GPS except it is to identify you, your clan or relations. I told her that I had no family except my uncle in Delaware. She told me her family and that she had a Habaryar in VA. She then dropped her name.

My world froze.

It couldn't hit me harder because her Habaryar and I had a very bad falling out back in the late 90s. I got bit and every man remembers the one or two crazy women he dates.

I couldn't wait for the night to end and I never got in contact again.

Iraqis are muslims, and the Prophet PBUH said to go outside our tribes and mingle with other nations and creeds...smh

What about 'dating'? What are the Prophetic teachings about that.

Only AbdiWahab has a story about both under aged gabdho & over aged habro.

Aint nothin awkward. It all depends on where i picked up the girl tho. If a roadside thing then nah nothin awkward. If u a good girl then maybe.

[smooth]

Awkward, fear etc. are all manifestations of insecurities deep within you, consciously or unconsciously you feel that your not good enough for the person, hence "especially when their good looking" rationalization. You need some deep soul searching and mentoring to get over these lapses, its not easy.

LooL this is funny.

AW waa shaxari legend

Especially if your date is good looking!?

I become sooo awkward on first dates :/ It's so annoying because I'm actually outgoing, but for some reason on first dates, I can never be myself. I'm always so nervous, and act like a shy little girl.

I was on a date recently with this really fine Iraqi guy, and I was so awkward throughout the whole date. I didn't even get to show him my cute personality I was so embarrassed and ashamed of myself at the end of the night that I've ignored his texts/calls ever since lol.

Any other girl/guy dealing with this problem? Lol

Why can't you just say he was a good looking guy, why do you feel the need to mention he was Iraqi?

Hehehe

I'm a professional sometimes I think my first date goes way too well and I could never top it, I think only one date went wrong for me but I sabotage it myself I wasn't really into her so I had to act rude to get rid of her.

[Khadra2016]

Lol

[SteadyState]

So she's a raging qabilist that hates on other tribes, but then uses Islam and inauthentic sayings of the prophet to date and marry ajnabis? Whoever doubted she's a Somali woman should have their doubt's removed now. Rather she is very typical.
