3. My Mena personality traits - Inconsistency

Submitted by Emoticon (Italy), Apr 13, 2019 at 03:34

I don't know if it ever happened to anyone of you to have any deep dialogue with your mena. Mine was gorgeously funny and we had very good laughs at the beginning, but when it came to discuss about more significant issues, he only repeated what his religious book would say and showed no interest to see my point or maybe share some legitimate doubt, that everyone has. In general, I can say I observed so many unscientific statements from his side, where he always said that "everything was explained in the quran". So animals like cats or dogs we came across while walking "might be animals or jinn (spirits)" and he always had to say aloud a special formula to decide which. If we saw a falling star, it was his god sending his firy arrow down against satan an nothing more romantic... Stars, like the sun were no burning masses producing light by themselves, but would receive the light from the sun, not to mention the odd theories he had about pregnancy, female cycle, etc.

I urge whoever is deciding to start a deep relationship with a mena, to test his level of understanding about the simplest topics of life, and you will see there is little chance to have any kind of deep, meaningful dialogue because he has too few ideas compatible with the most basic logic. To me it all seemed surreal what he said.

Secondly I experienced a great degree of impatience from his side, as if he was unwilling to repeat again a sentence I had missed, nor had the patience to listen to me to the end, as he was always interrupting me to start a new topic. As a consequence, he never really knew me nor my ideas. I think it was his looks that blinded me completely... Please take care all.
