PCG is right, I respect the guys who have the decency to say sallams in front of parents. I've adopted their attitude too, just ignore them. They can act all goodie two shoes they want in front of parents. However, the guys who have nothing to hide will gladly say salaam in front of parents.
As for guys you once liked ignoring you. Well I had one dude tell me he hated going to the movies. Couple of months later I was driving out of a mall with my friends, look around and see the car behind me is his and he's sitting with 2 other girls. He didnt see me, so I rang him up and he answered, and I said, "I thought you didnt like going to the movies" and hes like "where are you? where are you?". When he saw me, he sped off in his stupid sports car, showing off. Moron. Never saw him again after that. :p
Maybe he just does not like you. would you always say hello to someone you dont like
maybe he is not saying hello, not because he thinks its immoral or its giving u signals. maybe he simply does not like you and would rather not deal with you .
why extrapolate this on the entire muslim men, I mean with a billion muslims, one would say roughly half are male, and if we take out even 30% of that population as kids, that is a rather large number to be whining about isn’t it?
ahhh cattie but u may be confusing a few things here
did he say he hated going to movies in general
or did he say that because he did not want to go to a movie with you
or did he say he hated going to the movies alone
now,
when you saw him at the movies
maybe he meant he hated goign to the movies but his friends asked him into it and he went, kinda like I hate going bowling, but when friends talk me into it I go.
maybe he was trying to say he hates going to movies to umm avoid going to the movies with you..but does not mind going to the movies with someone else.
so here u are saying u are not sure what the reason is i.e. whether his social ettiquette and manners do not match up to your expectations, or that he finds it dishonorable to talk to you.
However, you extrapolated it to the entire muslim men population in your initial post, so its evident that you think its the latter.
lol, yes obviously he didn’t fancy going to the movies with me! anyway, at that point in time we werent even in touch.i never fancied him much anyway. (it’s the truth, really!)

Because the latter is the same as the former in my book.

If he does not like me as in romantically - that's no problem. He should still have the manners to say hello. If he does not like me as a person - that would be odd, since his attitude changed after I told him I liked him. Prior to that, he always nodded hello. Therefore, his not saying hello and ignoring me must directly be related to the fact that I asked him out, and he thought I was going too far with that.
Even if he feels that I went too far - that would be a difference of mannerisms and opinions. He is traditional - I'm not. He should still say hi. I'm a fellow muslim. A fellow Pakistani.
And I always say hello to people I dont like. I'v said hi to you, haven't I?
lol. so back to the whole, they dont say hi to avoid an ackward situation. i think its nice when someone says hi to me and i dont know them.
or that head nod thing some guys do , when you've seen them around but dont know too well. i think its nice.
so if i saw a paki guy when i was out somewhere and he saw me and didnt say hi, or smile or do the nod thingl, i would personally think it was just plain rude.
^ I mean how can you positively tell that he is pakistani? I am sure it doesnt have pakistani written all over his face...
PCG gurl get over it, if he doesnt say hi who cares get on with your life.. your giving him more attention than he deserves.. think of it this way its not your loss its his.
pcg..stop posin already…ur just pissed he refused to go out with you…i know guys dont take rejection that easily…but for girls it MUST be particualrly bad…first yu go outta norm and ask him out and then get rejected outright..not even the euphemtistic “im busy” kinda ting..ahh u poor thing.. u must have felt like ****..come here..
^ Its not the rejection that I care about anymore. Its the nerve of a guy who rejected a girl by saying how she's taking things too far (its this comment of his that I thought was really rude - not the rejection itself), and then ON TOP OF THAT, he turns his face away when he sees me (which is even more rude).
The reason why I bring this up, is because a lot of desi guys will not say hello to desi girls - whether they like her or not is not the issue - the issue is that its totally polite to say hi.
And what bothers me is that these same guys are polite to girls who are not desi/muslim.
And I was thinking about it. Do you know how I knew he was behind us? The parking lot was packed, but I recognise the engine of his car (there was no mistaking that sound) and I even said to my friends, that sounds like Fayaz’s car and I turn around and lo and behold its him. Moron.
