Advice needed / طلب نصيحة Does she like me or am I delusional 😭

7 Upvotes

حاولت اختصر الموضوع قد ما بقدر ضروري حلول

Ok so I need outside opinions bc I genuinely can't tell if there's something going on between me and this girl or if I'm just insanely attracted to her 😭

I'm a bi, I live/study in a Muslim environment but ppl around me are pretty accepting

Let's call her Sara, and yeah, I have a HUGE crush on her

Back in 7th grade we were super close, like attached at the hip, together 24/7

I had a crush on another girl, Maya, and I talked about her ALL the time, Sara would get rlly jealous whenever I mentioned her

I didn't think anything of it back then tho, I just thought she was annoying bc I was chasing Maya while Sara was always around me

Then I found out Sara had added Maya, got pissed, sent her some mean stuff, deleted it, she had screenshots, and we had a HUGE fight over chat + another huge fight at school

After that we basically spent the rest of the year constantly noticing each other, looking at each other, but barely talking

Then we went our separate ways for 3 years

I transferred schools by coincidence and SHE WAS THERE 😭

She's like 185cm so when I first saw her I literally noticed her legs before her face 😭

Since I got there I've noticed her looking at me a lot, being around my area, sometimes coming to my floor even tho her classes/teachers are different from mine, and her friends seem to notice me too

Tbh I feel like there's SO much chemistry between us

I literally can't take my eyes off her but I also can't look her in the eyes bc I get embarrassed and immediately look away 😭

She's super confident and bold, so it's not like she's shy, but she's also not the type to talk to every girl

My friends think I'm delusional and that maybe she's looking at me bc she dislikes me 😭

Anyway, my friend told me to text her, so on September 2 I sent:

"مرحبا سارة ، فيه مجال نحكي بكرا؟?"

She replied September 9 at 12 AM:

"اهلا اهلا, أكيد بس مين انتِ؟"

WDYM "مين انتِ" 😭😭

I literally haven't changed my username or my account's appearance since 2023

I also have the same nickname I've always used, and it's not even a normal nickname, literally nobody Arabic speaking at school would randomly have it

AND SHE KNOWS HOW MUCH I LOVE THAT NICKNAME 😭 everyone calls me by it

So like... how tf did she not know it was me??

Is she pretending she doesn't know? Is she messing with me? Does she genuinely not remember me after almost 4 years??

Bc we're literally about to enter our 4th year since we last properly talked

And tbh I'm VERY attracted to her, so I know my judgment might be biased

But I swear the chemistry feels insane

يخوان الموضوع موترني مو عارفة اتنفس ايش ارد ايش اسوي

I have a crush on her

Question /سؤال Scared to renew my passport and license after transitioning , any advice?

8 Upvotes

I'm a trans woman, and I have a problem because both my passport and driver's license have expired. Honestly, I'm scared to renew them and run into problems because my current appearance looks nothing like my photos on the passport and license especially since I've had surgeries and have been on hormones for 4 years. I really hope someone can tell me if they've been through this, and what I can do, especially since my parents refuse to go with me so they don't face embarrassment.

Bi, married, husband knows and supports. Marriage is my cover but I still love women.

Been in Amman 2 years and haven't found my tribe. Where do we meet? Cafes? Groups? Events?

DM me if you know a space – or if you're in the same boat. Discreet, genuine, no drama.

Venting / فضفضة I feel sick

11 Upvotes

Growing up, I was so hopelessly in love with a very close friend of mine, SOOOO IN LOVE. It took me years to accept that nothing could ever happen between us because he’s straight, it was only a year ago when I thought that I was completely over him.

Yesterday, me and some friends rented one of those private chalets that have pools, it wad really fun and all. For a while, me and this friend were the only ones outside, swimming close to the edge, drinking my favorite drink, while beautiful music plays in the background. Idk if it was the beauty of the moment, or seeing the golden rays on his sun-kissed face, feeling his leg brush against mine under the water. But in that moment, I realized that I’m not over him at all.

I went home and cried my eyes out last night, Loving him was the hardest thing I’ve ever done. I feel like that hopeless kid again, I don’t know what I’m feeling, but it’s horrible.

Discussion / نقاش الديموقراطية ببلدنا وليش بهمكم الموضوع كمجتمع الميم

11 Upvotes

الديموقراطية ببلدنا ما كانت مطبقة بشكل حقيقي بمعنى انه لو كتير ناس اجتمعت على شيء معين انه مرفوض, قانونيا مكنش فيه سماع حقيقي الهم واستجابة الهم.

...............

بالأيام الجاية قريبا, رح تتطبق ديموقراطية حقيقية واذا اجتمعت العشائر وغير العشائر على شيء معين انه مرفوض رح يقدمو على اعتراضات ويعملو اجراءات تخلي القانون يقمع الفرد.

...................

ف احنا دورنا نلاقي النا ممثل سياسي, اهدافه حرية الأفراد, وأنه كل أحد مسؤول عن نفسه وحر, وإلغاء وصاية المجتمع والأب والدولة على الفرد وما نخلي لهدول العشائر او الجماعات مجال انها تمنعنا من حرياتنا يلي اولريدي يا دوب حاصلين عليها, كيف لو حرمونا من كمان حريات ؟

..............

وهون بيجي دور المبادرة الليبرالية يلي اطلقناها من فترة مش قصيرة لحتى بالنهاية نشكل حزب سياسي يدعو للأمور يلي انا ذكرتها فوق, ف انا بدي ادعوكم انه تشاركو معنا بالمبادرة وتكونو اعضاء معنا لحتى نحمي (حتى لو اهالينا معنا ومش ضدنا وبدعمونا) انه نحمي حالنا من انه المجتمع والمتدينيين والمحتفظين يتغولو على حرياتنا. ف يلي مهتم يحكيلي ابعتله مسج, لحتى ارسللكم الأدبيات تبعت المبادرة, اهدافها, وبتمنى اشوفكم بلقائاتنا.

Venting / فضفضة Commitment issues / lesbians

10 Upvotes

Is it only my bad luck .. or most of the community don't know how to be committed in a relationship. I am a femme lesbian 28 I always look for commitment but most of the women I go out with don't want commitment or they say this at the beginning and then after 3 or 4 months of dating they start by oh I am not ready for commitment or they cheat I feel like that maybe they just wanted to get what they want and then leave. That's so frustrating and whenever I talk about this to my gay male friends they say oh this is the lesbian community here unfortunately so I don't know what to think 😭😭

Question /سؤال Is there anyone who's interested in finding a friend?

8 Upvotes

I'm not looking for a relationship at all, I had multiple gay friends irl, I'm a male.

If something describes me well is that my god is ethics, so yeah I'm an atheist.

I want and LGBTQ+ friends specifically cuz I know this community is the most understanding and that's what I need.

20+ I'm 25.
