I mean someone who respects a woman’s independence, doesn’t see her as his property, doesn’t expect her whole life to revolve around him, and understands that both partners can have their own lives, friends, hobbies, and goals while still building a healthy relationship together.
Where do you actually meet men like that in Algeria?
I was wondering why so many people start thinking about dating at a young age, especially in high school or during their first years of college.
From my perspective, I think people should wait until they’re at least 24 before seriously thinking about dating. By that age, you’re usually more mature, have a clearer idea of what you want in life, and have started making plans for your future. That’s when I think dating makes the most sense—because you’re looking for a long-term partner or a future wife, not just a relationship for the sake of it.
I’m curious to hear other perspectives. Why do you think so many people start dating so young, and what do you think is the ideal age to begin?
One year into a relationship with an Algerian man living abroad, before Ramadan we talked about marriage. He said, "I'm going to Algeria and I'll tell my parents I want to marry you." While he was there, he sent her a message saying they didn't accept and that he would try to talk to them again. He eventually returned and proposed marriage without his family knowing, saying that with time, when they saw it was done, there was no going back. She accepted because she believed in him and thought he could resolve the situation. However, one fine day, four months later, you find a marriage certificate. It turns out that when he went to talk to his parents, they quickly involved the whole family and married him off to a distant cousin. According to him, he had no choice; he couldn't disobey and embarrass his parents in front of everyone. He wants to leave his cousin there and marry you as his second wife, but obviously she won't accept it because having two wives could become a bigger problem than facing his parents. The issue is that he doesn't want to end the relationship; he wants you to accept being his second wife, getting married, having children, and living away from home while his first wife stays at his parents' house. He says divorce is impossible because he doesn't want problems with either family. The girl wants to leave him but at the same time loves him very much. He begs her not to tell his wife anything; according to him, the marriage hasn't been consummated yet, and she remains at her parents' house. What's your opinion on this? PS: She's going to read the comments.
Even when they are very basic, women are shamed for wanting the bare minimum, i am talking from experience because one time i posted that i wanted a man who had a stable job and religiously moderate but at the same time into movies and games and people commented all sorts of things telling me that netkhayel, and i asked for too much, a man like that doesn’t exist… some men even cursed me for asking and told me marriage isn’t built on movies and games but i only said that as a bonus you know? I believe compatibility is important.
What about you what do you think?
posted yesterday that I’d rather marry a girl from Algeria because I’m not really into Algerian girls in Canada. I got a lot of DMs saying it’s a bad idea because they only want a passport.
It honestly made me wonder. Why do so many people think like that? What’s wrong with a girl wanting to move abroad with her husband? Isn't that normal if they're getting married and starting a life together?
What makes a girl accept an Instagram message request?
Is it the profile picture? The bio? Mutual friends? Confidence? Or is it simply the way the first message is written?
It's just so cute i'm so happy for them rabi yhanihom 😭🫶
Hello everyone, i am posting this to have some advices or maybe i can find what i am looking for here
I am an Algerian man, and like every man when you find your self ready to get married you start looking for a woman, and my problem is here i am not that type of men who can talk to a woman outside to ask for her number of something like that, and also m not that kind of men who want to let his family to find a woman for him because i don’t wanna get married with a woman from the family.
Some of my friends told me that my only option is to know a woman from social media and they told me that the community of Reddit is the best place to find what i am looking for.
I don’t know if that actually work but here i am looking for advices or chance to meet someone here
If there is here women interested or can accept that concept i am ready to start a serious conversation.
Thank you
Is it normal that I met someone and got engaged after only one month?
I’m currently in this situation and I’m wondering what other people think. We got to know each other for about a month, felt a strong connection, and decided to get engaged pretty quickly.
Some people around me think it’s way too fast and that you can’t really know someone in just one month. Others say that if both people are serious about marriage and have similar values and goals, it can work out just fine.
I’m not looking for judgment—just honest opinions and experiences. Have any of you gotten engaged this quickly or known couples who did? Did it work out in the end, or did you later realize that one month wasn’t enough time to know each other?
I’d appreciate hearing your thoughts.
Do you think that you can be attractive , funny , nice , and a human of high value yet still struggle to find someone who loves you back? Have you experienced it ? Rejected all the time? In a loveless relationship? Or just ain’t lucky enough to be present in this world?
Is it normal that my reason n1 of me wanting to get married is that i always see my parents having a cute relationship while i cant even date bcuz of many reason (mainly bcuz its haram) i also feel like a third wheel in their relationship lol
It feels weird to think this way!

Hello everyone , I'm 26F I'll tell you my story very quickly and please give me your pov.
So i knew this guy on social media 34 yo
We texted for about 2 months , we liked each other initially.
Since i am looking for a serious rs , i told him that i reallyy like to take my time , step by step. He said that he understands this , so we slowly passed from texting to phone calls and everything felt great.
We've seen each other irl after 3 months , since we live far away , it wasn't a date he just picked me up from the airport but it was cool.
After that , he said that he really likes my mentality, and he wants us to go further i said me too , we planned a date ( which coincide with my parents visiting me ) I've I've told him before if my parents came to visit we need to change the date he said no problem I'll be back after one month.
Few days passed he asked for a phone call i said i cannot because i was with my friends and i just couldn't respond , here where it all started he said he doesn't feel my femininity , that a man needs a woman's touch , and i don't give him what he wants. It hurt me just , but i told him that since nothing is really official between us i just can't give you everything.
Then suddenly things changed between us , he never asked to call me , or to see me and the discussion between us just became casual.
I blamed myself, i said maybe i was too hard with him , so i tried making things together , texting him saying that i really missed our talks , but he didn't really react to this.
I couldn't handle this anymore so after 2 months of casual discussions, i told him that i noticed that things have changed between us and we don't enjoy talking as we used to , he said yes I've noticed and i think it's because of me , I am questioning my life decisions and I don't know why I'm overthinking simple things .
I said it's fine take care of yourself, he said thanks.
And i never texted him after this, the thing is he keeps texting me time to time, and the discussion is boring as if he was forced to talk to me. ( WHY DOES HE KEEP TEXTING ME!!))
Should i tell him for a second time that i don't like our relation anymore ?
And i am still overthinking if i did something wrong , was it because of me ? I really can't get into a relationship fast i need some time to adapt .
what the most attractive thing on men for you?
Idk if people still watch movies together...
Im dealing with loneliness (i have friends around me but im not that happy with them at least these last months)
I feel like shit talking to strangers about this(thats why this post wont last long) but i wish i had someone to talk to right now about this subject so dm me if ur dealing with that too
For girls, have you ever considered being the one to initiate asking someone out on a date?
for me : that seems completely unserious ،What are some ways a girl can show the other person that she likes him?
for men : Has a girl ever asked you out on a date, and what was your reaction?
Girls or guys with strict parents: how do you handle dating? Do you usually tell your family right away that you're talking to someone, or do you only mention it after a while, once things get serious? In general, how do you approach your family that isn't very understanding about this?
