1: Do you feel safe?

2: Do you regret marrying non-somali?

3. Do you think your marriage can be forever?

I'm an author, so I have some horriblestories on both sides, and I want more interesting stories.

Hawiye weaponised dhulbahate to fight with Somaliland, and now they are crying.

Hassan Sheik will use Dhulbahate again to fight with puntland.

"Dhibta la isku eegaa wey inoo dhaxaysee "

What's your opinions? Do you think we leave them, or we help fiqishini?

28M here. I really want to get married, but I'm hesitating because I'm afraid of marrying the wrong person.

I've dated three different girls, and all of them are attractive, but each has a downside. I'm confused about which risk is easier to go with.

1. She's very cute, but she seems more interested in getting a passport than in me. I don't think she truly loves me.

2. She's very cute, wears a hijab, and is hardworking, but she's not romantic at all. she is like a man.

3. She's very cute and very respectful, but she's extremely secretive. I gave her some money to start a business because she had the skills but lacked the funds. I used to encourage her every month, and she would tell me about her profits and achievements. After six months, she admitted she had never started the business. I also discovered she was dating another man while she was dating me. I saw messages where she was telling him the same sweet words she told me.

All of them are attractive, but which one should I choose?

Warlord Hassan Sheikh and his allies are seeking to establish a military base in Puntland or near the Somaliland border. If that happens, we may have no choice but to close our borders. The result could be bloodshed along the frontier, with civilians fleeing as Hassan Sheikh uses them as shields for his ambitions.

I was 18 years old when I was wanted to marry someone i used love for whatever reason didn't happen. I'm 28 now. The older I get, the more marriage feels less like destiny and more like a decision I can no longer take lightly.

All somali girls are beautiful, but when I date one, the others start to look even more beautiful. I feel lost
