I am an american girl & met an Arab man. My friends say I might get hurt because they are suppose to be w/ their nationality. What is your opinion?

It depends how the guys family thinks of you, but 99% of arab men who come to the US marry an American girl. i have a TONN of cousins and friends who did that. Arab boys are very romantic, give em a chance.

greetings...i mean no disrespect to your friends but their statement regarding "sticking with your own kind", is very insecure and narrow minded. people are people. no matter what color the wrapping paper is. when people can judge other people soley based on a physical visual then they themselves really need to check themselves. i'm sorry i just dont buy into that color matching crap. if your heart speaks to you about someone then it's worth checking out. the day you let outsiders dictate what you should and should'nt do as far as your heart is concerned is truly an unhealthy habbit to allow yourself to fall into. i am an american aswell. i have a stepdad who is african american. he's one of the nicest people i know. im proud to know him. i have a half sister who's half white and black. my wife is from vietnam. guess what..were still all americans. always remember to trust your heart. if something doesn't feel right to you then you decide it's not right, not your friends. although i'm sure your friends mean well. true friends are a priceless treasure most of us take for granted. just remember that a true friend will stick by yourside through thick and thin. be there when you need them most.good luck

Back in 1975, Iran was on "our side" and I dated an Iranian. (I was in college) There were also a number of guys from Turkey who had no problem with dating American girls. The nationality doesn't matter, but if you start talking about marriage, he may try to convert you to his religion. It's up to you if you want to go that far.

When I dated an Arab (I was in college) it all started out nice, he was very attentive. But then it got WAY too intense. He had very specific expectations and wasn't attuned to the fact that I had expectations for myself. He was just so unbelievably surprised. He even stalked me for a bit after I broke up with him. Kept saying he couldn't understand why I broke up with him because he didn't do anything wrong. I think it was a massive cultural difference.
I'm not saying don't do it, but make sure you guys are on the same page. Make more effort to check that out than you would with a guy from your own culture.

Go for it...they are Christian right? Its your life and don't ask people their opinion as they get mad when you don't take your advise.
Good luck honey.

I think you should ask him about it, and say you're afraid of being harmed. If he says it's true, you should probably break up with him for your own safety.
