My love life has stalled. It was all my bad. I’m kinda known to be really friendly and apparently he just couldn’t handle it. But I don’t intend to flirt, I’m just a friendly girl and sometimes guys misinterpret my friendliness with something else and assume that I’m welcoming their advances. Because assuming that every guy that talks to you is flirting with you is annoying – not to mention arrogant. But if I was to ignore every guy that approaches me or acquaintance that chats me up I might as well not go out, sit at home and watch TV.

It started when the guy I was seeing ( this week ) introduces me to one of his friends, and we hit it off, he was a real funny guy and I just love people that can make me laugh. I guess the fact that I was giggling annoyed him all night because he got all quiet and well almost… angry with me. He finally blurted it out when he was dropping me off and goes “ I don’t appreciate you flirting with my friends.” To me flirting is giving fiery looks and being all touchy and stuff with someone, not having a good laugh for an hour. But according to one my girls, I was being a flirt since his friend was intent on making me laugh all night and I welcomed it! So where do we draw the line between good’old friendliness and downright flirting? Bisoux

This has been buzzing for awhile but the details are not clear. According to AnNahar a  woman named Jenivieve was attacked by an unidentified armed man while waiting in her car parked at Nahr Il Mot next to CityMall on Sunday. The poor woman was stabbed in her breast four times and thrown on the side of the road.  She was taken to the hospital. Apparently this only happened at 10:00 pm and she was driving a Yarris. That sicko stole her car and fled the scene. Frankly I’m starting worry about the security situation we’re facing in Lebanon. Another story broke out today about a female shopkeeper working in a jewelry store North of Saida was shot to death in the head by a gang of robbers! What are the safety procedures being taken to prevent such criminal acts and are our security forces failing us because frankly I’m not feeling so safe anymore!  Stay Safe Everyone. Bisoux

My girl thought she found the man of her dreams, until he announces  a month later that he really likes her but he still wants to have his ” freedom.”  Freedom to see other people.  Not being your typical Lebanese girl my girl agrees to this openness IF AND ONLY IF she too can enjoy the perks of having the comfort of being with someone while enjoying open- access to the buffet. Fair enough. No?  And well what do you know… he says ” NO WAY.”

She dropped him in a heartbeat. Sure this guy’s a retard but you’ll be surprised by  how many guys have the nerve to be so vocal about the double standards they think they can practice in relationships.  His justification  ” I’m a guy, it’s different.”  Now how many times have we heard this one before?  I’ve heard the biological make-up excuse which frankly disgusts me, you know the one they use to explain why physically it’s ok for guys to see other women, but with a woman you’ll always ” know” where she’s been.

I’ve heard the social excuse  “what would people say, if they knew the girl I was seeing was seeing other guys?” I’m sure many of you can name the other lame excuses that comes with such an explanation.

So, why is it socially unacceptable for girls to “see” more than one man, but guys can brag about dating multiple girls? And how did we not shoot this hypocrisy down from day-one? Bisoux

What do you mean you want an "open relationship too?"
