Sometimes, you don’t want to get serious with someone but at the same time you don’t want to stop dating them. In our society, this battle is hard because you will be slut shamed for wanting a casual relationship. Traditionally in Egypt sexual relations outside of marriage are taboo — in fact, any dating that happens is generally short and geared towards getting engaged. Sexual health education, meanwhile, is practically non-existent, and nearly all Egyptian women have experienced sexual harassment.

Does this make me think that ALL Brits are thieves? I am sure many Brits are nice and decent people who believe in fairness, freedom, hard work and decency. I am currently researching for ITV’s THIS MORNING and am looking for English woman to share their experiences of relationships with Egyptian men. I see my brother in the uk give his daughter so much . Western women of course are looked down upon and I feel that every day I live here and I feel I have lost some of my confidence already, I enjoy working but as you said mainly so I can fill some void I suppose..
He is 24 and I understand he has his own fears and worries, but it doesn’t make feel better. Especially when I ask him ‘why are you with me’ and he has nothing to answer. I know that he is physically very attracted to me and that is probably it.
He said he did end it but like you say I don’t trust him. I want peace of mind for myself and my partner that I can marry and even holiday in Egypt without any problems. The documents I have are the one in Arabic with out pics and thumb print and an English translated one. A muslim man can marrry any faith of the woman…muslim women can not marry anyone except a muslim man.
Impact of Religion
The Roman emperors lived abroad and did not perform the ceremonial functions of Egyptian kingship as the Ptolemies had. Egyptians paid a poll tax at full rate, Greeks paid at half-rate and Roman citizens were exempt. Throughout the Pharaonic epoch (viz., from 2920 BC to 525 BC in conventional Egyptian chronology), divine kingship was the glue which held Egyptian society together. It was especially pronounced in the Old Kingdom and Middle Kingdom and continued until the Roman conquest. The societal structure created by this system of government remained virtually unchanged up to modern times.
A beautiful predator, a charming predator, but still……You get it. Just don’t get rushed into marriage, don ‘t even think marriage, think Egypt is a great place to heal and have adventures. You will be surrounded though as that is the nature of the beast and don’t consider any of these comments to be negative, because more than likely, they are the God’s awful truth. Still you can have fun as long as you arm yourself with your radar and the wisdom you are hearing.
What do Egyptian Wives Think of a Family Budget?
The Late Period of ancient Egypt is taken to end with his death in 323 BC. The Ptolemaic dynasty ruled Egypt from 305 BC to 30 BC and introduced Hellenic culture to Egyptians. 4,000 Celtic mercenaries under Ptolemy II had even attempted an ambitious but doomed coup d’état around the year 270 BC.
Therefore, being so hard to get makes Egyptian women even more attractive. Egyptian women have not become very popular with foreign men yet. But this does not mean that they are not worth your attention.
My friends who were married in their early and mid-twenties are now in their mid-thirties and divorced or miserable in their marriages. In the case of one of my closest friends, I knew her husband before they were married, Like it and I could see it was a mistake even then. She just mentioned recently she’s getting divorced and I congratulated her. It shocked her a bit until I pointed out that both she and he were miserable in the marriage.

Feel like this all happened a life time ago yet I’m still living with a worry and feel there’s no one that can give me a definitive resolution. You have been in Cairo a long time, try to remember back. That takes a long time for most folks and getting a really good job is very, very hard.
They say it’s just for the children; but I am going to teach my baby what I was taught by my culture, and he is still going to tell his child to be a good person, and then he can decide when he is old enough,” she explains. “I find it ridiculous to have to abide by the same religion in order to raise a family, and it is not logical that men can marry a woman of another religion but women can’t”. In the modern era of computer technologies, Egyptian girls are no longer limited by geographical boundaries.
He looked like he wanted to come to bed with me, but I apologized and said I just needed sleep. I have heard horror stories about dating an Egyptian. Some of them are true, but some are entirely made up. For example, an Egyptian man living in America is not a scammer but is often a successful entrepreneur. Because of the religious views of Egyptians, premarital sex is highly frowned upon. They restrict many activities that could encourage ‘hooking up’- clubs are few, alcohol is haram .
