Mona;
This is not fair you are making a generalization over here :) Come on not
all men are jerks like that :)

I know allot of married couples (Egyptian men and women) that share a very
happy and simple married life. Also whenever one of them needs time on his
own with his friends, they do it. They don't go out with their friends as
much as they used to do before marriage (everyday) hehehehe but they at
least join us on Thursday or Friday nights.

Another friend of mine, works 6 days a week while his wife works as a
part-time for 3 days a week. So during the summer she goes for 4 days to the
North Coast with their child while he stays here in Cairo. She does not have
to sit next to him to hold his hand. If he goes home before her while they
are working he cooks dinner for her. They are very opened minded people and
they are a very happy couple.

To be honest with U when U are looking to amount of time allot of women
spend on telephone calls, it is amazing!!!! I don't say that men do not
love chatting on the phone too :) but the amount of time women spend on the
phone is pretty remarkable. With one exception :) the brother of one of my
very best friends has the ability to talk to at least 180 minutes on the
phone the guy is incredible :)

There is a scene that pisses me off!!! Unfortunately I saw it several times.
A guy is driving his car, with his wife and kids. He parks his car in front
of his favorite coffee Shop. Leaves them in the car, and sits on the coffee
shop to smoke 7hagarein Ma3assel????!!! This is too much??!!! I guess that
is unacceptable!!!!

Ooops I have to go work work work

Mona I attended my Best friend's wedding in Seattle in 1996. But I am single
guy so it did not really cost me that much cause I also stayed for free. It
is an experience, that I will never forget. If your relative is close to U
to the extent U are really dying to go to the wedding, then go. If he/she is
not that close then don't and buy the Car :) If U want to go to the
Engagement as just an excuse to travel because U are looking forward for a
vacation, then Go.

Do U have a car? Is functioning? R U comfortable with it? Do U really need a
new Car??? A car is a mean of transportation it does not have to be fancy or
new it only has to be reliable. If U need a new car cause yours is on the
edge of breaking down, then U will regret not buying a new one when your old
car breaks in the middle of the road. If U don't need a new Car, then Go to
Canada & Dallas U will have fun hehehehe!!! I have been to Canada 5 times, I
actually save my money and go there every summer it is fun.

Salam
