I am a frequent visitor to Egypt, I find the culture, the people, the language, everything beuatiful. I always go to the same hotel in Sharm El Sheikh and the staff are like my personal friends, in fact one is a bit more to me!!
I have a lovely boyfriend called Sayed, and he makes such an effort to speak English to me, but I'd like to know how to say somethings back to him in Egyptian Arabic- if anyone can help me?
I'd like to say phrases such as:
Sayed, I love you so much
I miss you loads
I hope to come back soon
You are so special
One day we will be married
We will be so happy together
You are so handsome
I can't wait to see you
Please wait for me
Don't go out with other girls
You are my life
You are my true love
I think about you all day
I dream of you when I sleep
I want to fall asleep in your arms
You are so beautiful to me
My heart is for you
My life is for you
I am all for you
I know things like hapipi is 'my love' and wahshny 'I miss you'
Thanks

Yes I consider him my boyfriend, mostly I say it in english and he understands obviously, but I want to say it in arabic for him!
I have visited his family in Cairo who have been very welcoming and kind to me and he also knows my family very well.
In fact the hotel and his boss know all about us, we have been seeing each other for several years, and I know girls who have tried it on with him but to no avail!

of course I can understand him, he speaks english!!
I'm not asking for you opinions, and to be fair, you know f*** all about my love life! So it is not really your place to comment.
I am simply asking for translations.

Did he marry his wife in Egypt or the states? If in Egypt, it's very easy to get a divorce (for the man) and there's no reason why they should still be married. If in the states, they can still get divorced easily if there are no children involved. The fake marriage is simply an "orfi" or "urfi" marriage that many of the new generation does to ease their conscience. By their religion, they can have more than one wife, but the orfi marriage is usually a way for them to have sex without feeling guilty about it. Plain and simple. Orfi is not recognized by any law or government (nor Islam), so there wouldn't be any divorce issues. I don't know how long you've known this man, but I would reconsider everything. If he isn't Americanized, you will be in for a real change. I was engaged to an Egyptian, who I married (we are now separated), and it's very difficult due to cultural barriers. I love Egyptian food, many parts of the culture, their singers, etc....but I was in for some serious heartbreak. As far as meeting his family, it's 50/50. Some of his family were truly kind-hearted and honest. Others smiled in my face,told me how pretty I am, were extremely hospitable...then plotted behind my back, and talked about me like dirt. It's hard to tell which is which in the beginning. (Of course, this could apply to American's too, but it seems some Egyptians have it down to an art). In my experience, I've met many Egyptians that I consider to be sincere and friendly. I've met others who are superstitious, dishonest, hide things like nobody's business, back-stabbing, and two-faced. I tried to tolerate this all in the name of love, but in the end, it was too much. If you're like me, you'll have to find out for yourself the hard way. I was extremely attracted to him and his culture.....but at a very high price.

Sharm el-Sheikh is the Sinai Peninsula's significant tourism middle and one of the world's prime diving destinations and today you may get there your holiday with the help of this place hotelbye . Sharm el Sheikh is certainly one of Egypt's best places if you would like to calm down on the beach, and it is a chosen by family holidays due to the outstanding services on offer. Whether you are here for the mud or the fish life, Sharm el-Sheikh is a superb choice for a beach break following discovering the temples and tombs in the rest of the country. Also, fringed by a white sand beach and swaying hand woods, Naama Bay is the epicentre of Sharm el-Sheikh's resort life. You can find ample restaurants, cafés, and souvenir stores if you get bored of the mud, but Naama Bay is really all about the beach.

If you are this interested in him, take a course in conversational Egyptian.
How does one get this involved with someone you can't talk to??

Just give him a bar of soap, and a tube of toothpaste
and Gillette underarm stink bomb, and go out and find some taste you obviously need potty training. lucky you you can be one of his brides, learn how to dance like an Egyptian
go to you tube and check Steve Martin dancing like an Egyptian
its a hoot.
