​

Salaam everyone,

I’m looking for some honest advice or perspective from anyone who has been in a similar situation.

Last February, I met a potential who was objectively great—he was respectful, intentional about marriage, and was introduced to me through his sister. At the time, however, I was dealing with emotional baggage and was still hung up on a very toxic person from my past. Because of that cloud over my head, I was subconsciously looking for a flaw to justify saying no.

The only "flaw" I could find back then was our long-term relocation plan: we both live abroad, but I am firm on wanting to move back to Algeria within the next 10 years (before future kids are old enough), and he couldn't promise that he would be able to return. After meeting twice and talking on the phone twice, I asked for time to think and ultimately rejected him.

Since then, every guy I've met has either been non-committal, not ready for marriage, or had major dealbreakers (like not praying or dealing with Riba). Looking back, I realize I let a good, solid man walk away because I wasn't in the right emotional state. I happen to know through mutual channels that he is still single.

I have a few questions for you all:

Is it worth trying to recontact him (perhaps through his sister)? Or has too much time passed?

How would this likely be perceived by him and his family? Would reaching out look inappropriate or desperate, or would it be seen as an honest re-evaluation?

For those of you who have second-guessed a rejection or been approached after turning someone down—how did it go?

hello im kabyle but i was born and raised in algiers and my parents didnt teach me kabyle also we dont go to bled ever so im not surrounded by it, i want to learn it myself.

have u been in a similar situation where you had to learn it by yourself? and how did you do so?

Hello, I’m a first year student in NHSAST, it was my dream to study robotics engineering abroad yet I didn’t get the opportunity because I couldn’t find a university that was good for me either the country is bad or the tuition fees are too much. So I gave up to study in nhsast, at some point I was hesitant between it and polytech,because of the law they added recently that required you work 5 years in Algeria after graduation. Anyway I wish I’m not staying here until graduation.
But the problem here is that I feel very very overwhelmed and sad since I came here,I arrived this Saturday to stay in the residence and study,but I haven’t been feeling well at all,I’ve been sad,cry all day and sit in my room,I’ve stayed with my parents and siblings my whole life never stayed a day away from them and now it’s too hard for me to stay here and study,especially that I missed the few first lectures and people with me in class keep rushing professors and I understand nothing,so when I’m back in my room I barely can manage my time between studying and chores,and it’s making everything harder.
I’m thinking about freezing the year or changing the major,maybe I was never meant to be an engineer??, I don’t know but everything here is going very bad and I haven’t made any friends or anything so on top of all the pressure I’m lonely and I can’t stand it. I don’t know what I should do and if there’s a possibility I can change the major please tell me. And if you have any experience with anything I said tell me how you went through this period,maybe I’m capable but just sad?, I don’t know but I hate this experience so much that I’m thinking about giving up my studies. I haven’t told my family about any of it, they know it’s my dream to be a robotics engineer though and they were so happy I got accepted in nhsast,my father even cried that day. Please tell me what to do I feel lost

I am so curious about my Algerian fellows in terma of the things that you are most proud of? I mainly mean things you did, tried, achieved… etc by yourself.
Looking forward to hear from you

So I'm homeless with no way to get out of it rn, and I tried to setup a paypal account, but it got banned immediately. IDK why but I assume it's like that for all algerian accounts.

I need the paypal account to receive some money from friends abroad, but idk how.

I need help urgently.

Hey everyone!

I'm looking to connect with Algerians living in the Netherlands. I'd love to hear about your experiences living there, how you adapted to the culture, and what life is like as an Algerian in the Netherlands.

Whether you've been there for years or moved recently, I'd be happy to hear from you. I'm also curious about the Algerian community there and whether it's easy to meet other Algerians.

Feel free to comment, I'd love to connect!

Or I did the right thing by ending this relationship am lost pls help me

I’m a male university student, and I’d like some honest opinions, especially from Algerian girls.
There’s a girl in my university that I’ve known superficially since last year. We studied together last year and we’re in the same class again this year. We’re not friends and we don’t really know each other personally, but we recognize each other. When we make eye contact, we usually smile and greet each other, and we’ve had a few small interactions.
I’ve started liking her personality and I’m interested in getting to know her better, but I haven’t told her that.
Since this is our last year at university, I’m thinking that maybe in a month or two, if I get a good opportunity to talk to her when she’s alone, I could be straightforward but respectful and say something like:
“I wanted to tell you something. I like your personality and I’d like to get to know you better. If you’re interested, maybe we could exchange our socials media.”
My question isn’t whether she would say yes or no. I’m more concerned about whether the approach itself would be considered disrespectful or inappropriate in Algeria, considering that we only know each other superficially.
If you were in her place, would you find this normal and respectful, or would it feel uncomfortable because the guy isn’t already a friend?
And for Algerian girls specifically, would you prefer a guy to be clear about his intentions like this, or would you rather he first become friends with you and only later show romantic interest?
I genuinely don’t want to make her uncomfortable or give the impression that I’m disrespecting her. I just don’t want to graduate and later regret never trying.

I am an Algerian who wants to study abroad, i'm in my last high school year, doing my BAC exam this year and i'm gonna apply to UniPadova when the portal opens in January 7 2027. Now an important part of getting a student VISA includes proving funds, a financial amount of money that should be present in your personal bank account or your sponsorships' by the time you apply, for Italy this is around 10,795.5€. And other countries give similair numbers either in € or $. My question is:
considering that exchanges to EURO are impossible in the Algerian bank, how did you guys manage to fulfill that requirement? Do they accept an equivilant in DZD? Do they accept a loan? Did you use the parallel market rates? A third party to help you prove them? Please share your experience bellow and thank you.

السلام عليكم
