what would you think?...

Its impossible for his family to see me....they are in Pakistan (where he visiting now) and I am in the United Kingdom!

Sorry I am not really sure what a SO is...if its a close friend who you get on really well with...feel comfort with each other...lots in common...3 hrs between us in birth etc then yes! lol

hmmm maybe he will rob me hahahahah (no chance)!!!!!!!!!

Re: what would you think?...

SO stands for significant other. I thought perhaps there was a mutual romantic interest.

Re: what would you think?...

LMAO!! thats a good one 8 Ball. I might actually use that sometime :D

ok SO (signicant other) well kind of....but he does not date (and I respect him for that) but my prev posts have been how confused I was....as he said many time he loved me etc etc etc etc but could really have a relationship as harem to date (which I repect 110%)...so we just had this close friendship thing

Re: what would you think?...

I think that's rude.

Have you asked him why he wants the pictures?

All what was said was...I want to show the family

Re: what would you think?...

seek random pics online and post em to him, if he's dumb, he'll fall for it.

Pictures of the woman and family make sense, but never heard of anyone asking for pictures of cars and house :konfused:

Maybe you should just send your own+family pics and see his reaction?

My BF only asked for my pics to send to his older sibling.....with his parents, I just met them directly.

If this guy wants to show YOUR pictures to his family b/c he's interested in marrying you, that makes sense.

I have no idea why he needs to show pictures of your parents.....is his family going to give their opinion of YOU as his wife based on what your parents look like?!

Umm....if a potential future husband ever asked for pictures of my house or car (or house/cars of my parents), I would dump him asap. If his family is going to form opinions about me or my parents based on what our house looks like or the type of cars we drive, then personally, I don't want to become a part of that type of family.

Re: what would you think?...

sounds like he wants to say oh look she has this car and this house not sure if it sounds all good.

and if its a girl asking for it.....shudders

Re: what would you think?...

I'll say it again. It makes more sense (to me anyways) if he asked for a pic of you and your family. Asking for a pic of your house AND your car............would make me wonder if he's materialistic.

Have you met the guy in person before (ever)? Is this an online relationship? Why don't you just ask him (calmly)....why he'd want to see a picture of your house and car...and why that matters to him? If I were you, I'd ask him.

HAHA! ..

got a taste of ur own medicine eh jay man?

Oh gosh...no....this is not a on-line thing!! I have known him for more than half a year now...but I know you guys think I am weird saying this...but we both feel this "connection" (i'm not mad) lol

And he def not materialistic...far from it....ok he first said..."send me pics pics of your mum dad and you"....I then said "anything else"? he said..."whatever....your house...cars...anything u like really" lol

I have read that in desi culture...its all about class and wealth...so maybe he is gonna show off...."yes her dad has a brand new audi tt" "look at her graduation picture...she is educated" etc etc etc

I really do not know, as not being of pakistani origin I am only now learning about culture etc (thanks to everyones help here)! :-)

bump! ne one else?

I think if you would have stated this in the first place, it would have avoided a lot of confusion. You made it seem like he was materialistic by your initial post, perhaps by error. It all makes more sense now. You're caucasian, non muslim, living in England, and he is currently back in Pakistan after the death in his family, right? So now after a few weeks when things have somewhat settled for him over there, he may be taking the next step in at least letting his family know about you, by asking for the photos and stuff. It was a way for him to get more info about you to his family who aren't going to be able to see you. It looks to be a positive step that he is taking in making your relationship something serious. I hope things work out!

Exactly

I am sorry if I caused any confusion! you have a very good memory though!

You will just have to forgive me...I am white british and desis do things a lot differently ...thats why I found it weird him asking for pics of me...family...home etc..even if it is for rischta purposes....his family will probably be against it anyway....(thats just based on what I have read..about families disowning their children if they marry outside their race)....although I do not know how true this is...as he has said he can marry a christian women and his family are very liberal!

This is rarely the case. There are many Pakistanis who have married white women and even bring them to Pakistan.
And in most of cases, its religion that is the real issue rather than race.

Can you convert to Islam for him?
