how do you...

One of my closest friends called me up the other day. I barely hear from him nowadays since we parted and went to different colleges after school. Lets call him X.

X is like the sweetest guy on the planet. Lel2asaf, he’s also the most naïve guy on the planet. He’s always been the easiest guy to boss around and be taken advantage of. So X calls me up and tells me ena he has this thing going on with a certain flana , and that he’s going to talk to his mom within the next few days 3shan they get things official. I was very very very excited and happy for him at first, until he started telling me more and more about their relationship.

That’s when the alarms started going off. Apparently, their relationship has been going on for 4 months. She had just come out of another relationship with a guy, and my friend had been a close friend of hers, so she confided in him and he was her shoulder to cry on.

This girl dash eb 3athalat oo b 8owa mo 6abee3eya. He told her that he liked her, but then she told him that she was in a relationship with another guy. As the days went by, things started going badly with this guy and X was her shoulder to cry on. She was a bit physical with this ex, like they dated and they would make out and we’re all touchy feely, bs nothing serious (per se) happened.

Then, apparently this guy did ‘something’ to her (that X wouldn’t tell me about) and that’s when she decided that he went too far and that things was unacceptable and she broke it off. I asked X if the ex got physical (like physical physical) with her, and he said no.

Elmohem, from there on, they got closer and closer by the day, until she kissed him somewhere on their campus one day. Yes, SHE kissed him. This is X’s first relationship so he didn’t know what to do, and he kissed her back. (ON CAMPUS IN BROAD DAYLIGHT!!)

It went on like this for a while, they would study on campus together, kissing when no one is looking and cuddling when it was dark and after-hours. Then they would go to his/her car and do some more over there.

I know that X is:
a. inexperienced
b. a coward
to do all of this by himself, so when I asked him, he would say ee she did this that, and I would ask, really? She actually kissed you broo7a? he would say no it was actually the both of us...or we both decided to do blabla

Elmohem, apparently she has been nagging him to speak to his parents for a while to get things serious, and like I said, he’s new with all this stuff, so he wasn’t really sure of what to do or how to act. This is his first relationship ever. Even first crush ever.

This was all until a few days ago. He was telling me she has been pressuring him to take her out on a date for weeks (YES SHE PRESSURING HIM, la7ath-taw?), but he had been too scared…and yes that was a quote. Lain he actually did, and then they went back to the campus and had a serious make-out session (like serious serious make-out session…full blown mo bas kiss here or there), and that’s when he decided to talk to his mother, upon instructions from her basically.

6ab3an ana ga3d egooly elsalfa oo ana I’m thinking strange strange slutty slutty….okay al7en things don’t make sense!!

She’s ga66a nafs-ha all over him oo l9bay inexperienced doesn’t know what to do. What kind of girl would go kiss a guy o oho ma kan yaby eli he pulled away, oo then she does it again? Oo pressuring him to take her out…oo lman he did, he was wearing a cap oo ehya cool weya blsayara? Oo telling him to talk to his mom oo oho egoolaha I’m not sure about how I feel yet?

Laa oo azeedkom mn elshe3r bait, when she first kissed him, he told her ena stop I think we’re taking this too fast, chan etgoola no I think we’re taking it too slow!!!

And they’ve had several fights about how she thinks he’s taking things too slow and how he’s not going at her pace!!

Elmshkela ena she’s got him wrapped around her finger to an extent I didn’t think possible with anyone in the world. Oo kil ma agoola shay egool she said this oo she decided that!!

When I told him how do you know she’s the one ya3ny you’re not experienced or anything, he’s like she said it seems right...i say dont you think its too early, he would say no she said we dont need more time!!

An important piece of info is that my friend isn’t kuwaity, so when I told him ena she’s okay with that, he’s like ee she doesn’t mind…I’m like not even in the beginning, he’s like la2 she was cool about it. Also, you should know that my friend isn’t cute, isn’t hot and isn’t exactly charming. Ya3ny his personality mo eli keeps you up at night. If anything, he can be a bit irritating at times.

Oo ehya…well, I’ve met her once before ages ago…o all I can say is ehya mo hayna…


Ako wayed other things that I didn’t tell you, but from what he told me, the conclusion I’ve come to is this:

(now these are all theories so allah esame7ny etha ana ga3da atbala 3alaiha)

1. the ex got too physical with her
2. she needs someone to cover for her (or to blame)
3. she found the perfect gullible guy whom she can fool into anything she wants

4. one of two scenarios is going to happen:
a. they would get together for a short while then get a divorce
b. they would get together then ra7 tetbala 3alaih ena he did something to her, then get him into a shitload of trouble.

X really trusts my opinions and judgement oo I’ve tried to ayeebla elmawthoo3 ymeen ysar oo oho 7mar mo rathy yefham!

so my question is this:
how do you tell your friend that his girlfriend could be a slut?

thats why its soo long...soweeee ;)

btw, how u been? hows final year so far?

Hasan.B said...

Very stressful but I try not to think about the stressful part. My advise to you if you would allow me to give you one is read kumar, oxford or emdical at a glance for medicine men al7en, o mafeha shay etha geraitay surgery b3d! Y3ni rakzay 3la the patho and stuff, bes study medicine and surgery. La tethbe7en 3mrech, just enjoy it! Cause ana ma ba6alt il surgery ela now o shwey met7asef, bes it should not be hard. El medicine ohwa ele ekhare3 bes at least its more interesting. Ana chene shta6ait shwey. Just ed3ele:P Which are you in now btw?

Houliee said...

Shakilhaa she's had her eye on him for some time ;p

ĐǻñĎõøðñ said...

the advice is much appreciated! =D

im fifth year al7en, im doing my surgery rotation now, and i got my OSCE next week...which is kinda freaky cz its like my first clinical exam ever hehe

i got kumar and oxford bs i dont have at a glance yet...im liking oxford more than kumar though
oo for surgery, i got churchill and kumar b3d...theyre cool =)

im studying only the medicine that has to do with my theory so far bs im trying to do get the surgery done nicely...its intereting bs ma7ad m36eena wayh in the hospital lol ;)

ĐǻñĎõøðñ said...

houilee,
wallah shakilha she's had more than just an eye on him! =S

Hasan.B said...

e zain etsawen. Ana ma 7abait kumar maybe cause met7asef ma geraita men zeman:p. bes A lot of people prefer it 3la oxford. Oxford is good but too much details, fa i use medicine at a glance as my core book, which has really cool pics and its very easy to read o b3dain oxford for shweyat details. Surgery ma7eb churchil kilish, fe khosh ketab isma surgical talk, bes its too soon to get it. Etha neja7t o reja3t ilq8 o sert dektotech a36ech eya;P. Anyway time to go and thanks for asking

jooj said...

OMG wsho hathiiiiii 9j gwyat 3ain :P and your friend seems to be quite overwhelmed by this first "love" therefore is lettting her take advantage of his niceness or naiiveness if I may say.. personally I don't think he should talk to his family about her unless he wants her not because she told him to! I cant get over how overbearing this girl is!

ĐǻñĎõøðñ said...

5ala9 ill be waiting, bs dont you boss me around and stuff ;)

Like this: "Dude your my best friend and everything but you're gonna have to trust me when i say that your hunny bunny is a slut and if you marry her you're probably gonna regret it for the rest of your life. Cheers!"

Easy peasy.

Tiger said...

the guy needs love, let him have some ya dana. clearly he is naive and doesn't understand that women are evil hahaha, ok sorry bas this woman maybe.

Panacea said...

God I feel that im watching a Mexican soap >< I think you should tell him the following:

You came to me for advice ...and I’m a girl ...and as a girl...I would tell you that...decent girls ...Marriage material girls.. don’t go making first moves and kissing guys on campus!! and the fact that you’re not her first is beyond disturbing ..do you know how far her relationship with her ex really go ..first base ?..second base? ..all the way ?
You’re a nice 3la nyatk guy ..bs even el3may sees that she portrays signs of trashy behavior m3 e7trami...All facts indicate that her past relationship was R rated 9ra7ah !So dump the hell out of this manipulative slut before its too late !

If you cant tell him to his face..Just copy our replies =p and tell him I ran the facts pass my fellow unbiased bloggers and this is what they had to say...

good luck to you both ^^

Nemo said...

this is my experience:
* I had a friend who loved a girl, the girl doesn't love him (she loves someone else mo m36eeha wayh!!)
* after 3 years lama shafat mako fayda .. she gave him a chance!
* my friend knows that i dont like her la2na a7sha m9la7chya .. ma gam ykalmni 3adel o kela 7asbala eny atbala 3alaiha
7ata ma gal ena they're in a relationship
* They got married "melcha" .. o gamat tyanena .. aby el 3rs el flany .. o el shabka el flanya .. etc ...
* a'7r shay they got divored b3dha eb 2 months!!!!
* more over b3dha eb two weeks .. she got back m3a ely mo m36eha wayh! yemken 9arat 7lwa eb 3ainah now?

tawa yestaw3eb ena im his friend .. o ma kan qasdi shay!


so allah y3eenech!! la2na love is blind really!!

A Journal Entry said...

tell it staright to his face!
be compeletlely honest with him.. even though the truth hurts.. bs thats what friends are supposed to do..

Nani_37 said...

That's a damn pickle your in !
i honestly believe that the best way to tell him that is to say it straight up, but if that girl really got him rapped around her finger that bad, then the possibility that he might not accept anything you say about her stands and he might hate you for it .. But even with that, i still think the only way is to just tell it as it is.

sadia said...

ok...the first thing that's coming to my mind is that she got pregnant with her ex....gulp!

your poor friend.

tell him about this being a possibility. just do it. forget about the consequences. atleast he'll think about it!!!

S E 7 E N said...

BIL WAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYIH mayabeela .......

if MR SIMON SAYS doesn't get it oo inty khafa 3ala ma9la7ta tell him the truth before he gets himself in a deep hole .... tell him

Fiend said...

I agree with most of the bloggers here... tell him look i love u your a great friend and i'd never wish harm onto you. But dude seriously this chick sounds like a slut. Why? because this and that. Put all facts out infront of him and also tell him to man up. A relationship isnt about what oneside wants... if its 'meant to be' then they'd both be wanting to get married. Also if she really loved him then she'd wait for awhile. If he's still in school then tell him to use the 'wait til i get done with school' card. Just to test her and prove that she only wants to get married. Hmm wonder if she might be pregnant from her ex? :p

Aurous said...

that girl is a real slut... but your friend should grow up and think for himself!

It's a tough situation, but I think you should tell him :)

i guess you're right...he's not getting the hints so lazem aga3da oo agoola bl wayh =S

sadia said...

thank god!
but you should tell him anyway.
and yes, he'll probable hate you.
because as you said, he's not too good looking/hot, nor is he very interesting to be with.
all this attention from this gilr prolly makes him feel very good about himself, clouding his judgement.
but be brave dana.
do it.
don't care about the fact he'll hate you. this is too serious if he's palnning to go official. if he wasn't then you could've let it go. but your advice might just save him from a big disaster. just think of him (he's like the sweetest guy on the planet 9a7?), and do it!
:)
may the force be with you.
lol!

Ruby Woo said...

If something bad were to happen, you're gonna end up hating yourself from guilt. However, if you do open up to him and tell it as it is, you might lose a friend itha ma3jiba il kalam bas at the same time you can sleep in peace knowing that sawaitay ili 3alaich!

i think u should keep ur opinion to urself, cuz he is an adult, be it gullible or not, whatever decision he makes is something he should take responsibility of.. all u can do is urge him to think it out well, and not to yeild to her pressure, unless he believes in his heart that they are meant for each other. But weather she is a slut or not, u don't have a say in it. ma3arf thats how i see it!

Dee said...

u should point out to him that shes always the one deciding and never him oo maybe you can ask him wat traits he likes in her vs her annoying habbits and her vugalr acts (or woman in general n see if that applies)
or you can tell him a similar story about a controling woman and let him see how bad it is
we judge things better from far

I would simply tell him flana is a slut.

She's obviously playing with his heart i think you need to tell him. If they keep kissing, he's going to get more attached ;p

..:: P.ANONYMOUS ::.. said...

OMG why wasn't i able to see ur post all this time :$ !!
it just came out of no where though i've been checking ur blog constantly : (

anyways, sweety he knows it as u said since she told him everything and he accepted her as she is!!

but whats not ok ina he doesn't know that he's being controlled by her unconsciously, and i really feel sorry for him that in his relationship she's the one who gets to control the situation rather than both of them !!

and that's not right nor it is ok !

allaho a3lam but it seems that shes fooling him around, and he's too naive to see it!

i know for a fact that he wouldn't accept what ur going to say, and he'll deny it (hence the way he answers u) and maybe hates u for it, bs u gotta say it since one day he'll come back to u and know that what u said is right.
and who knows maybe not ! but at least he'll understand with time that what u did was out of ur love and care to him !

P.s: i agree with Panacea, tell him that if she's really a marriage material girl she wouldn't have gone this far so obviously she's using him for a reason or another.

P.s.s: sorry for the extra long comment :/

Fiend said...

dandoon think of it this way... if you were in his situation what would you want a real friend to do? Also him not being kuwaiti could complicate things later on if he does marry her and it doesnt work out.
Hmm i still think he should play the school card. He should say that her parents arent gonna accept him being non kuwaiti AND still a mere student. So once he graduates and gets a good stable job to buy her diamonds and pearls his family will approach.
Look in the end if he doesnt listen and wont even try to test her when she doesnt seem to be trustworthy to begin with... its just gonna be his problem. He needs to man up seriously...

F. said...

If you're not close...I'd say stay out of it...

Bas since he came to you for help...perhaps you could just tell him what you think...and that you're worried about him.

Be straight forward and frank about it.

A 3 AM Flight said...

Hmmmm... I agree with you Dandoon, I think the inevitable will occur, being a weird, messed up break up, assuming it was a 'relationship' from the start.

I hate girls/guys like that, they're just in it to fill whatever void/phase they're going through, not caring about the outcome or who they hurt.
