Dating in Saudi

If you want to get more details about understand all this, sure we can discuss this.
So you're saying King Abdullah is a hypocrite??? Hope you're using a VPN lol
And, second point, you're indicating you are an expert regarding Islam and how it's practiced worldwide while I have very little knowledge ('obviously')?
So if this is your stance, how can there be any discussion (means an exchange of ideas), since you're an expert and I know so little? It's more like you would consider this a teacher-student relationship? I think not.

Look for girl coming from a standard family
And get married. Dating is very dengerous here ( can cause final exit )
For the fact I have a Someone who I date
But at the same time I'm doing my best to end it up into marriage.
This was for the singles
For the married people and their wife/husband is not here I have no idea as to what they can do.
So you tell people to get married and yet YOU are sneaking around dating?Â
Besides, isn't marrying someone a rather extreme way to get to know them? That's what DATING is for. THEN marriage. Not here, of course... but in the rest of the world

Seriously, I don't understand what you want to prove..
What if I argue with Neil Armstrong as to how moon looks.. you're into similar type of arguement.
To argue on sensitive topics, one should have comprehensive knowledge of the subject rather than observations and experiences by few people one knows. This rule goes for all of us.
Looks as if you have made up your mind that you're "Always Right"
Thumbs up (y)

This post can be treated as a message as well as caution! :-)

I never said you didn't know much--but you've condescendingly said it several times to me. How does this transfer to me always thinking I'm right? Seems to me it's the other way around.
Also, you've made statements (KAUST is hypocrisy) which you don't explain when I ask you to.
And last but not least, you've just compared yourself to Neil Armstrong! 
I think this is as good a place as any for me to stop. Enjoy your superiority

Thanks, really appreciate that 
In those countries, most people say that we are Muslims but they dont fast in Ramadan or they are against the head scarf of women or they dont pray five times a day...
So looking Muslims countries and comparing them with each other and saying that one is different in the way of practising Islam than the others doesnt help you understand Islam...
If you want to learn Islam, dont look at the lives of people in Muslim countries, just read the Quran and take good examples from the Hadiths... Thats all I think..
I am a little suprised to see all the ink spent on a concept which is fairly easy to comprehend and is reality!
Muslims in general do not believe in free mixing as Islam does not permit it.
Some Muslim countries try to impose this restriction through legislation, and some Muslim countries dont. It is as simple as this!
But i know this , " people want what they cant have "
But again some people have to argue irrespective of knowledge they posses about the subject in discussion.
@hitch: yes its big thing but again principles of islam are the same now your contry follows it or not or you folow it or not is someother thing.

Every month or two, someone comes and comments "Oh yes. Dating does happen here but you need to be careful"... No one notices that this has been written 1 million times before in the same thread. This thread, I guess, is a constant source of excitement for many.

And some people think they know everything (while ignoring the difficult questions: ie. if Kaust is 'hypocrasy,' as he said, is he therefore saying King Abdullah is a hypocrite?).
My objection to all of this is that I don't think Saudi Arabia is the only country that practices Islam correctly, irrespective of somebody's (Neil Armstrong?) insistence that it is.
come on
man up and woman up, and take it to another thread, or make another thread, and keep this one on topic
a page and a half of off topic that 3 or 4 members contributed to is crazy. i know exactly how it happened. but it went on for almost 6 pages without it happening. and no, most people dont follow the rules, they just give an outward appearance they do.
ever been to saudi?
dating in saudi has and always will happen. tis a truth.
arranged marriages are stupid, and statistically idiotic

Give us statistics and then we learn how idiotic it is...
Freshlikesushi wrote:Not caring to find the articles i saw last year. statistics in companies with arranged marriages measuring happiness and marriage longevity were significantly lower when compared to choice based
Then not caring to read the articles you wrote here buddy...

Aw come on, Armand! It's a healthy exchange of ideas! Let it die of it's own accord (only to resurrected in a couple months when, as said earlier, somebody comes across 'Dating' and is WOOOOOOOOOOOoo! .. DATING!) 
to avoid much of dispute, this thread should be closed.
This thread is of not much use now. Let the new expats coming to Saudia start a thread on 'dating' again. I feel if this thread is kept open they will easily comment on it every now and then.
