you cant generalize and it has nothing to do with nationality

hi

im an egyptian woman (19 and single) please read all before saying anything and sorry if its too long lol

and i can tell you there are men here that are beyond perfect....not that many unfortunately but you havent lived here for long and you dont know how egyptian or middle eastern men in general are like or how to tell the good ones from the bad ones, so you fell in the hands of a horrible one

i am so sorry and very deeply ashamed to hear that someone have been through this but i can assure you men here can be a knight in shining armor if you choose the right one, you dont know them like i said before, but im telling you there is perfectly great men here not all of them are like that

and as for the other western women..... egyptian men who marry foregeiners are usually not so great (some are but most arent...theres ways to find out easily though lol) and theyre doing it because egyptian women demand a lot of respect and commitment from men so they choose an easy way out i guess but yea like i said not all of them are bad sometimes you just meet the one and they happen to be from another continent lol

and btw it has nothing to do with where youre from, ive heard worse stories about men doing much much worse (specially latin men) so yea...

im not justifying what he did and again (if youre a real person and this is a true story) i am so sorry you had to go throught that
