My life is more than a roller coaster, maybe a spinning wheel?
Honestly, how can one person like me, this very quiet person with limited surroundings of people can have such an EXCITING life?
EXCITING is what I mean dramatic, crazy, unbelievable… me? ME?
So how many of you remember the purpose of this blog and why I made it? I made it to vent about my life, my messed up 4 year relationship, and the crazy life I am living.
The past 6 months have been a complete roller coaster. Crazy things happen to me but I adjust after a while and find other ways to deal with it after my grieving period that goes from 1 hour to years. I get over it eventually, life moves on, right?
Well, this morning I got great news. My mom knows everyone in our city and all the stories. So she was telling me about a particular family and particular person. It seems that someone is getting engaged soon. GUESS WHO?
Of all the people, after all the shit he put me through, dude.. I ended up making a blog cause of him. Who the hell does that? Wasn’t he bugging me 6 months ago through my blog? And emailing, and facebooking? Now this? An arranged marriage to a girl who is not from this country even?
What did I do to deserve this? Seriously.. I feel like I was worth nothing and now I am paying the price. After all, as he said, IT’S ALL MY FAULT! It’s my fault that I WAS MY SELF, OPEN MINDED AND NOT FAKE! SORRY I WASN’T ARABIC ENOUGH! BEHAVED, TOLERANT, AND OBEYING AS HE KEPT CLAIMING I WASN’T!
I thought about it a lot the past hour, and I am just gonna keep cursing and regretting the day I ever met him and probably this is the worst type of closure. I think I am just damn unlucky. Some Arab guys are fucking heartless.
I seriously need to get a new job soon. I have to get out of this place ASAP. Bad memories… really bad. I need to start a new life. This is sick.

Oh man, So typical of these guys!
Let it go, its not worth it…After all, he is marrying someone he does not know, in a different country, who for all we care could be a monkey.
Arranged marriage (i.e. blindfoldedness) is the only way he could get a girl..so let it be…
On a second thought, OBEYING? OBEYING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I wouldve just smacked him!!! UGHHHH I AM SO MAD right now..
Look Mona,
Lets be realistic here. You broke up with him for whatsoever reason? Probably we was a jerk? Its been a while and I assume you already got over it, you’re a tough girl, aren’t you? Who gives a fork if get gets married or whatever? Is it your pride hurting or what.
I say don’t let it get to you, okay? I wouldn’t care less if my ex gets married or even die! I am all OVER it. Be tough
You’re too good to fall for depression *hug*
I have to say that in my experience most of the Arabs who snag spouses they don’t know, from “back home” all have something that makes it almost impossible to find a bride or groom in the community. Sometimes it’s ridiculous like age, or it’s major like having one or more baby mama. Either way, I have to say 90% of the time the decision is purely out of desperation.
There are always exceptions, but it sounds like in this case he’s probably in the 90%.
All you can say is ma’alesh
I can’t offer any advice on this matter…
but does anyone else find the ads for ‘foreign brides’ in the sidebar ironic??
I missed this moment… but from what I’ve read he seems like a child. Arrogant, close-minded, disrespectful… quite possibly irresponsible as well.
If he was an asshole then you are better off without him, right?
I just feel sorry for the future bride
But I guess that what divorces are for?
I wouldn’t be envious of him getting married to someone he doesn’t know. She could turn out to be some psycho or chronic nag who makes his life a living hell. Karma has a funny way of paying people back you know.
*Catch up on Mona hour*
This sucks
and even though I have no idea what its like… I know I will someday.
Keep your chin up Mona
