my experience,Kindness in Jordan is Weakness.Be Tough Be Disrespectful,Be bad is the only way to gain respect in Jordan..
This is Jordan if u are nice ,u are stupid.

2)(for girls) You got used to be stared at by guys from 5 to 90 years old
3)Taxis honk at anything
4)Taxis always listen to the same old music, and try to make you pay double the price because they think you're a tourist
5)Every time you go to a local shop, the guys greet you with a 'welcome in Jordan' even though you've been living there for over a year
6)You think the guys are wearing too much gel and too tight jeans
7)There is a 'no smoking' sign everywhere but no one actually cares
8)(for girls) When you go to a party and you're wearing nice clothes, guys in the street ask you if you're from Russia
9)Taxi drivers regularly ask you where you're from or make a guess
10)You've never seen cheaper cigarettes
11)You think the police standing there is useless,or maybe increases the mess and the number of car crashes

17)You can't walk on the pavements because of the trees
18)(for girls)Cars regularly stop and the guy who is driving twistes his head just to see you. If he does not stop, he honks, or whistles

I was never afraid of those guards, *the Gendarme Forces or Quwaat al Darak)--they always made me feel even more safe . Jordan can just be sooo funny sometimes...like those Egyptians are sooo funny, and how they are always yelling (Fouad can fool an Egyptian into making them think HE'S Egyptian he's got the accent down 100% lol ( Yalla ya 3ammi聽 - Ishtuf al darag ya 3ammi inahaar dah!! )

if you don't like MANSAF, then you are an alien...

If you still don't know what is MANSAF, then you are really an alien
