So...whats up with these Saudi's?

If you're saudi, I apoligise in advance if you get upset at what you're about to read, but like i said, my views are biased.

Ive been having alot of experiences with Saudi's these last few months. I guess mainly because of the fact that Ive become quite close with a particular saudi guy that I met at college. Lets just say it became more than a friendship. Ive always had a specefic view of saudi people probably because Ive lived there for a while as an expat with my parents. However, for the short time I was there, we never really associated with them. The locals pretty much kept to themseleves and if there was any form of contact, it would usually be the guys trying to pick up any girl who hadn't covered her face. Its funny, becayse I dont ever remember talking to a saudi guy until I met this one.



So, as an observer, Im about to fill you in on things you may or may not have already noticed.



1- All, or at least most saudi guys are metro:

This guy went shopping more than I did. This does not make me a tomboy, or a girl who does not care about her fashion because trust me, I cant go to uni wearing the same thing I already had on the week before just in case someone with a memory of an elephant may remember and then forever associate me with that item of clothing. Anyway, its crazy how much they care about their looks, and its not a bad thing, but there definitely is a limit. Thier saksookas (goatie) are always perfect, they smell like wood (3itir), and as my friend once said 'they always look businessy and shit'!



2- They buy only the best shit:
Even if they're poor as hell! Gucci, Armani, Louis Vuitton, any brand that remotely oozes 'RICH'. Even if its just underwear. Its pathetic!

3- They dont go to study overseas for JUST the education:
Althought some do genuinely look for a better education, most take the oppurtunity that their government provides them (government pays for their education) to leave that prison. Its as if you've opened the door to a cage and let them escape for just a little bit. The things they see seem to blow their mind. Freedom. Girls. Clubs. A chance to live on their own without having to worry about reputation for once. I wouldn't blame them, they hardly see any of this in the 'great' KS of A. Its quite sad actually.

4- They are full of pride:
If you dont own a beamer, or a gucci bag, you are not worthy of their attention. Sad, but totally true.

5- They dont love you, they love to control you:
So like I said, I became close to this guy, and its not until I removed myself away from the shitty situation I was in, did I realise this. I analysed and assessed every nook and cranny of the relationship, and came to the conclsuion that he never truly cared for me. And if you're any khaleeji reading this and thinking 'Well of course not, they're only having some fun' then piss of, you dont know shit! Im not an ignorant, gullible girl, I definitely know MY shit! Once it was over, one of my good friends who never really liked the way he treated me said: 'he deserves an ignorant mountain girl whose ovaries are on overtime.' She should be quoted. Saudi guys are controlling, there is absolutely nothing anyone can say to undermine that fact. The funny thing is, is that they still seem to be cowardly. Big time!
