Peculiar Behavior...

I just love picking all of your brains, dont I? :hehe:

I was talking to a buddy of mine this morning and since she is involved with this guy (talking over the phone for shaadi purposes) I asked how things are going with him. Does she like him?

He is a nice guy, hasnt really done anything to make her feel like she cant trust him. Educated and has his own business. They’ve been talking for a couple of months now.

She says he called last night and told her he isnt a phone person and only wants to communicate via text message now. His reasoning is Islam.

Whaddaya All Say? Keeper?

Huh?!?

Re: Peculiar Behavior…

Oh so text messaging a na mehram is Islamic :hmmm:

Reha, some of your friends make Life1 such an interesting place :smiley:

Re: Peculiar Behavior...

Yes, because texting isn't haraam.

weirdo.. sowie!

Re: Peculiar Behavior...

yeah i think its super weird

Re: Peculiar Behavior...

Give him a chance if he is not lacking something else ...

Re: Peculiar Behavior...

strange..

I really really really dont understand it. :hmmm:

Niks, I like variety…:slight_smile:

Re: Peculiar Behavior...

You guys think he is messing around?

Re: Peculiar Behavior...

Maybe he thinks he needs to go to a private place to talk...doesn't feel comfortable in front of others...so texting is a better option?

not necessary. some people can say things better in email/text/fb than on phone or face to face. Give poor guy a chance

Re: Peculiar Behavior...

not an expert here but sounds like a clear case of "its not you baby, its islam."

Haan, lekin Islam ka kahan se naam agaya? All of a sudden, he is a mullah?

I say, he is losing interest! He is probably married to three other women in three different countries and is playing with my poor friend's heart.

Im taking some chocolate cake over to her apartment tonight. She might need it after we figure out this guy is a loser.

Yes, but wont the easy route be to just avoid her altogether? Isnt that what most guys do when they feel uncomfortable being open or honest about their feelings? They just avoid, right?

Why hang on with just text messaging?

Re: Peculiar Behavior...

Perhaps he has free text messages or its cheaper to text than call.

Re: Peculiar Behavior…

cheap :smiley:

No offence :k:

Maybe Islam is the name of his roommate who is eavesdropping.

Re: Peculiar Behavior...

I can understand wanting to use texts more than phone. back wheN I had a life (yeah i said it) it was easier to text throughout the day than to actually talk to someone...

:omg:

i hate txting :mad:

Re: Peculiar Behavior...

lol. maybe im just one of those who cries at the thought of something intellectually stimulating me... but Icant talk on the phone AND do anything else at the same time (be it cross the street, do my work, cook, whateveR). I cant give proper attention to either thing
