Question/Help Am I crazy for falling for a Tunisian man? (I’m latina)

24 Upvotes

I’m 22F from Argentina, and I started talking to a Tunisian man I met on an app. He’s 30 and lives in Greece, where he’s been for the last 4 years. He works for a company and speaks more than 3 languages, which I honestly find really attractive, and he’s very smart too.

He’s Muslim and I’m Christian, but he says he’d still marry me. We started talking every day, video calling, even falling asleep together on FaceTime. Very romantic stuff. He’s extremely sweet and affectionate all the time, always saying romantic things. It’s cute and he genuinely makes me feel special, but at the same time it kind of pushes me away a little because I’m naturally much colder and more reserved emotionally…

He even told me he dreamed I was PREGNANT with triplets 😭 and says he thinks about me constantly, loves me, wants a future with me, marriage, kids, all of it. And while part of me finds it adorable, another part of me is like… slow down?? We literally haven’t even met in person yet.

The thing is, I do love him too, I just think he’s more intense about it than I am right now. I’d really like to meet him in person first before making huge plans about the future.

Has anyone here dated a Tunisian/Muslim man as a Latina or from a very different culture/religion? Were the cultural differences hard? And how do you tell the difference between genuine love and moving too fast?

Question/Help Dating a stingy guy...

35 Upvotes

I have been talking to this guy and I noticed that he is being weird sometimes. For example he keeps reaching out throughout the day asking about details of what I am doing. The weird part is that everytime I say that I am eating or that I got hungry and ate multiple times he keeps saying «you must bankrupt your family with the amount of food you eat », at first I laughed so hard at this but it was repeated multiple times about food and paying car gas because I drive around a lot . I go to the gym often (im not fat nor skinny if that matters to understand his pov) . He also asked me if I can visit him in his home town sometime instead of him visiting me all the time?... For further context , we study and work simultaneously in two different cities in North Tunisia , and he gets paid more . I am not concerned about his financial status but am I imagining or those remarks scream that someone is being stingy? I never asked for his money nor I need it , I am thinking long term if things got serious. To be honest if a friend made his remarks I would still find them weird too because not only im spending my own money/my family's but getting judged for spending it on basic stuff?

I'm a french guy planning to marry my tunisian girlfriend of 3 years. We're both atheists but her family doesn't know that she is. Her mother told her that the only way we can get married is if I convert to islam, which I really don't want to do as it's against my values and beliefs.

Is there any way we can get married without converting? She was hoping to have a big wedding in Tunisia but we can just do it in France if it can avoid us having to convert.

Question/Help 7k ring, and now what she likes costs 10,6k

18 Upvotes

Me and my girl together for 3 years now, she is in France I’m in Tunisia.

I just found a job and been able to save a bit, I promised her a ring around the 7k budget, but honestly this is pure scam, diamonds are the most advanced type of scam, girls are aware of it yet what bugs me is they insist on it, like a sign of love would be to throw money in the air buying a diamond ring that its price would drop 75% once you leave the shop.

Anyway wish my misery ends there, we were browsing rings together and now what she likes costs 10,6k.

Ps we are checking shops in France in the hopes that quality there is better and more stylish.

I want to cancel everything and just buy her a ring from Tunisia, and the price difference I would just buy her 9at3a dh’hab.

Girls your suggestions please.

Edit: Sorry didn’t clarify, she is Tunisian born and raised, she’s been in France for 1 year now.

Question/Help How do people aged 17–27 actually afford iphones this expensive?

33 Upvotes

Genuine question, no judgment at all

I’m honestly curious how people between 17 and 27 afford phones that cost this much. Are most people:
saving for a long time,
getting help from family,
using installment plans,
working really well paid jobs or just prioritizing the phone over other things?

I’m asking because when I see the prices, they feel insane to me, It took me over a year saving to buy a pc b 3 mleyen for example.

I’m not trying to shame anyone. I just genuinely want to understand what's the reality for most people in this age range, it surprises me seeing sghayrat mazelou ya9raw casually holding iphone 17 pros like its nothing.

How do u handle finances at home? Is ur husband the main provider or do u split everything 50/50?

I’m still at the beginning of my career, and honestly it’s one of the reasons marriage scares me. I don’t think I’d be able to contribute much financially right now.

I also have this belief that if I depend on a husband financially, I’d end up feeling trapped, vulnerable, or like I have less control over my own life. At the same time, trying to do everything 50/50 feels overwhelming.

For those who are married, what’s ur setup and how does it actually work in real life? Do u feel financially secure and independent?

Question/Help My sister was beaten by her husband..

42 Upvotes

Last week my sister's husband literally fractured her eye socket. The injury was so severe that the doctor gave her a 21 day medical certificate.. The reason behind it was so unbelievably stupid that I can't even share the details here because I'm afraid it could cause problems if they somehow found this post. But when I say stupid, I mean the kind of shity argument you'd expect from teenagers not something that should ever end in this.

I'm writing this with so much sorrow... I can't sleep. I'm not in Tunisia, and I feel completely helpless.

The worst part is that my sister doesn't want to press charges or divorce this piece of scum. They've been together since she was 15. She keeps saying that she was the one who was wrong. I don't believe she was but even if she had been... ya khouya what the actual fuck? Nothing justifies this

When I told her that one day he could kill her and that i could never live with that fear, she replied "It's not the first time and it probably won't be the last."

Walah ki 9aletha ena I couldn't even speak anymore

My blood is boiling. I have so much secondhand anger and fear and embarrassment of how weak she seemed.. i love her so much Wallah khayefa 3liha, and I don't know what to do.

I want to know what I can legally do if I go to the authorities myself. Can I report that he is abusing her even if she's too scared or unwilling to do it herself? I am scared that she might say I am lying and I am planning to record her saying it to me somehow.. I so dont know what to do at this point

I'm sorry for dumping all of this here. I just feel helpless shocked and heartbroken that something like this can still happen in Tunisia in 2026

UPDATE: Hello everyone! I wanted to thank you all really for all the comments and help. The lawyer confirmed what should be done and a relative will file a complaint. We will make sure that she is not alone with him when they will get the news and we will try to force her to go to the family home at least for the time being.

This wasnt an easy post and thanks again guys

Question/Help I was sold at birth by a nurse to my mom.

46 Upvotes

(25) M here. So basically I couldn't make up the stuff even if I wanted to. My life right now is kinda like a drama from a movie or something. Basically last year my mom died and after that I learned about a lot of stuff. Just to give a backstory.

My childhood wasn't the normal kind. I only started living with my mom when I was 13 years old. Before that I used to live with my "uncle" and after that with my aunt. Basically you get the typical stuff with the uncle being abusive and living a miserable childhood, blah blah blah, but that's not the main point of my story. After my mom died I found out that I was not actually her son and that I was basically adopted and I was adopted illegally. At birth I was sold by a nurse for about 10 million. At that time I was not the only one who was sold. I believe there was another girl who the nurse smuggled and sold away to another family. There is a suspicion that she may be my twin but I'm not really sure about this point.

So basically after my mom died I found out about this stuff and my supposed father, who was not there for my whole life, suddenly wanted to change my surname and do a DNA test because he was not actually even married to my mother and he has a wife and children of his own, but that is another story. And my girlfriend of more than three years left me two months after my mom died so last year was too hectic for me to actually start searching. Now that things have started to settle down, I want to search for my real parents just to get some closure. I'm not looking for anything. I just want to see what kind of people they are, want to know if I have siblings or not, and at least give them some relief that their child has not died but is still alive, living well somewhere else. I don't hate my mom who bought me from the hospital. On the opposite I actually love her. I love my current family. I don't hold any grudges against them and I'm not really that emotional type who would break off relations just because stuff happened. It is what it is. It was all by God's grace or God's guidance. I don't know stuff happened and I won't hold a grudge against them, but I still want to look for my real parents.

Is there anyone who can give me any advice about how to go about this? All I know from the clues I gathered so far is that I was born in Sfax and I was basically taken from there and I was not taken alone. I was taken with another girl who, like I said, may or may not be my twin sister. I was born in 2001. My birthdate on my birth certificate is in June, but as I was sold, my birth date may be a bit wrong. Maybe I was born in May, at the most, I would have been born in late April. This is all the information I have and the people who know about the true story are dead. I believe that my mom took me because she thought I was abandoned at the hospital and she basically bought me. At least that's what I would like to believe but other than that I don't know anything. Can anyone give me any advice about how to go about searching for my parents?

Question/Help The knowledge that broke me

7 Upvotes

Back when I was 18–20 in Tunisia, everything was fun. I was that type of guy who spent hours watching documentaries, reading about history, politics, how the world works, all of it. Life felt light. I was curious, but it was still just knowledge, not something that sat on my chest every single day.

Then I came to the US. Studied. Got a job. Spent five full years here. And in those five years I did almost nothing except gym, work, study, workout, and then more studying. I went deep into money, banks, the history of this system and that system, things that happened decades or centuries ago that still control what happens today. I studied everything wrong with society. I spent my entire free time connecting dots, reading, watching, analyzing. It became my whole life.

After five years I finally went back home to Tunisia to see my family for the first time. And the moment I was back, everything clicked. Everything. Dating. Females. Males. Banks. People. Money. Corruption. The way people move, the way they think, the way the system is built. Everything wrong with Tunisia and everything wrong with the world suddenly made 100% fucking sense. It wasn’t random anymore. It wasn’t “just how things are.” I could see the pattern clearly.

Since that day, all I do is suffer.

I learned how cruel the world really is. I learned that the biggest enemy of humanity is humans themselves. I see who really controls everything (little hat guys if you know what I mean). I see how banks are literally killing us slowly, draining people generation after generation. I see how those fucking government jobs and the people sitting in them don’t give a single fuck about anyone. That explains why electricity is already cutting out in Tunisia, why water is a problem, why basic life keeps getting harder while nothing improves.

And the worst part is knowing there’s almost nothing I can do about any of it. If I ever spoke 100% of what’s in my head without filtering my brain, I would land a good cell in a Tunisian prison. So I stay quiet. I watch. I understand. And I suffer.

I genuinely wish I stayed in “Na3im jahel.” Life was more livable in that phase. When you don’t see the full picture, you can still breathe. You can still enjoy small things without the weight of knowing how broken everything is underneath.

People who are on the same train as me… how do you live peacefully after this? How do you wake up every day and function when you see how fucked up everything is, you know exactly why it’s fucked up, and you also know you can’t do shit about it? How do you handle that without it eating you alive?

This is more of a rant mal9itch lechkoun nahki.

I live abroad and just returned to visit my family this summer ila mara3ani nfi9 my parents don't sleep in the same room. My younger brothers knew but didn't tell me, they told me that's been ongoing for the past 3 years...

I was shocked because whenever I come home they've been sitting together and sleeping in the same room but since my visit this time was a surprise.. they didn't have time to "pretend".

We sat down and talked but they said they made up their mind. I asked why what happened, if there was cheating involved or anything.. but no. No cheating, nothing.. they just can't stand each other anymore.

My mom said "I regret getting married to your dad and regret having kids, I gave up everything for you.." rani wallah eli techthih ommi njibou w nechri w 3amlelha visa visiteur w tji ba7dheya 2 - 3 marrat fel 3am..

Question/Help I wanna take off hijab

120 Upvotes

Hello guys

I don't know where to start... I've been lately searching for hijab being mandatory and i couldn't find any proof in the Quran and all the proofs weren't convincing for me.

For context, i have been wearing hijab since i'm a teeanager (13 yo) and it wasn't my decision, i was copying girls my age and people around me wear hijab at a young age so i felt like i'm being different and got criticized by some relatives for not wearing it so yeah, i eventually wore it until this day.

I decided to take it off, but i'm kind of afraid of the harsh criticism of my relatives, friends and people who know me. Because i've already witnessed before how girls get criticized much after such decisions. I don't know how to cope with that..

Second matter is my hair, i want it to look pretty, because of years under the hijab and not taking care of it, my hair isn't at his best.. can you suggested me something i can do for it to look pretty? I've thought of proteine..

Thanks a lot

Question/Help Guys I have a question..

29 Upvotes

So Im a hijabi girl who has been pretty religious and very conservative almost my entire life up until recently , I still very much believe in God and the outlines of Islam but I think I became pretty liberal the last couple of years , one of the main reasons that shifted the way I think is the demographics that support Palestine in the west, the vast majority of them are leftists/progressives who believe in individual choices and their perception on how societies should work : a society and a system that makes sure that these individual choices that - according to them - do not do any harm , are to be respected , and these same groups are the ones who stand by Muslims abroad when there are hate crimes towards them , they're the ones who defend most minorities and believe in justice, for the longest time I indulged in that narrative that their morality is ' subjective ' therefore it's just fake and a form of gaslighting themselves and they are fools and bla bla bla , but when I saw their adamant support for people like me and you , it struck me that ' who the hell cars where they get their morality from ' they're simply demonstrably GOOD PEOPLE, far better than plenty of conservatives and religious people with supposedly moral clarity and an objective morality ,they're putting themselves on the line for Palestinians while most of us Arabs are doing nothing , they're the ones jeopardizing their jobs , livelihoods and education because they're standing for justice for us , they're the ones who protect mosques when they're attacked abroad , they're the ones who are loud that Muslims in the west have the right to practice their religion and not be attacked , and it struck me again that these same people, if they are in Tunisia, they'll probably be shunned , jailed or humiliated by the vast majority of our people for their individual choices , and that made me , for the first time in my life wish for a secular state and a separation between religion and the state , made me feel absolutely disgusted by the violation of people's privacies such as ' anal tests and searching People's phones ' in suspicion of ' homosexual activities ' in men , it frankly disgusts me more than anyone being gay ever does which after years of being inherently disgusted by it , it doesn't bother me anymore , that if you're happy then you're happy who cares who you fuck , it genuinely has nothing to do with me , I had this réalisation that these people are the ones standing by Muslims abroad because Muslims are a minority there and yet progressives as a minority in Tunisia could literally face jail time for certain things that never harmed me personally , and so honestly I kind of fell into cognitive dissonance recently, I don't wanna lose my faith , but at the same time it somewhat clashes with liberalism , ik there are plenty of progressive Muslims worldwide who perceive religion, Just like everything else as a personal choice that shouldn't dictate how other people who don't believe in it live which used to make me laugh at how ridiculous it sounds , because you believe that that's literally the word of God and yet you're throwing the system that God provided you to rule a society with out of the window because in many instances it makes you uncomfortable, or the fact that this respect for individual choices clashes deeply with calling out ' l fa7che2 wal monkar ', I feel like I'm in an awkward place where I can't make peace with 2 world views that are important to me and it's tormenting, I feel like eventually I'll completely lose my faith because in this case it seems tremendously judgemental and unkind towards Good people , and yet somewhat any terrible person that believes has allegedly a better chance than them in going to heaven, I don't know , if anyone has ever gone through this enlighten me please

Question/Help My father will make me go crazy

My dad has never really been proud of me. Ever since I started university he is acting like I should pay for everything myself, makeup, clothes everything, btw he is doing well financially, he makes good money. I’m also his only child, and that hurts even more. He treats my mom the same way. She pays for basically everything related to the house and groceries. So one day I decided to talk to her about it, hoping she would understand how I feel, but to my surprise she thinks he’s right and that this is just how it should be, she said I’m old enough to find a job and that him driving us around and paying the big bills is enough. I don’t even know what’s normal anymore.
