falling in love in doha...

Buddies,

Is it normal to fall in love in Doha,...Is it a crime?...or do we need to get serious in a relationship since we know that this will not last for a long time...Im not searching then, but it accidentally happened. I just want to share this thing as i want somebody who can help and advise me if it is right to get in love in doha.

Doha is one of the most unlikely place to truly fall in love, because the ladies are so careful and the men are too scared, of what we all know.

But Doha is romance-ful when you eventually escape from the inadequacies and limitations of our location to our hearts where there are no boundaries,limitations and restrictions.

I am yet to fall in love in Doha.

Heyy, the real world is wherever we are placed. The real world is in the here and now.

/But yeah, I know where you're coming from - many see this as a stepping stone only, to save up enough for when their life can begin and do the things they wanna do. Despite the fact that one can live and do the things that they wanna do right where they are.

Never thought that this would last

Oh everybody asked

How ya got a girl like that

But you should have known

That nothing lasts forever (lasts forever)

I mash up ya mind

But boy don't be surprised

That I'm seeing other guys

I'm too young to settle

And you should've known better (known better)

it is perfectly normal to fall in love, whether in Doha, Alkhor, RasLaffan or in another side of the globe.posting this here to ask our opinions and comments is a sign that you're still have your senses with you.usually people who are in love gets numb,partially deaf,their sight gets blurry,and you can see how their eyes smile.you should think it over & be ready for the consenquences. pick a good advice here and go on, and get back to work you're staring at his pics again!

You can find love in Doha, but rejection, especially by those oriental minxes is like a steak through the heart.

everyone has the right to fall in love whereever you are but you must be very clever since some men and women claimes that they are "single" even if they are not..a lot of us are expats and temptation of falling in love is very intense..make sure that you are really loved and not to end up as victim of love..hu hu

By anonymous• 19 Jul 2009 23:33

an advice from many previous experience, and not only mine, when u r interested in someone from the other sex and especially nationality... take a little time and check, because the attraction doesnt mean surly this is love, its only an attraction and with time and experience with that person maybe u will find another and different feeling when u know him. because if u directly think that this is love, and happens that this isnt, when u know him very well belive me u will lose him especially if u get physical together...

simple kate ,

Love has no boundary,culture, language, rich,poorness,employe , un employement, .....etc.It is a innermost feeling from your heart.

the feeling only will make you happy ,and the feeling only anticipate lot from your opponent.one sms one hai ----- it is all body chemistery.

As we are all away from home our heart expect some closeness with other heart(!) as said by Brit expat.

But you have to decide yourself ,dont ask anybodies decision.it is your life.decide yourself.

Your love should not be onesided.Be politely inform him,if he say know forgat that and do our work as you wish and think about your family position.

But dont forget that you are living in Middle east countries.

I have been an expat for many many years. In my personal experience , MOST expat relationships don't last once they get back to the real world..

We all want love and companionship when we are away from home. So, many a time "incompatibles' come together because they are lonely or fearful. The relationship lasts here, but once they get back, the diffrences begin to appear. Many a time they are insurmountable..

As I said, just my experiences. i may be wrong and hopefully , I am ..

Are you being facetious? (say yes...) Are all or most expats looking for a safe port in a storm instead of a real and lasting relationship in places like this? So there must therefore be an unspoken rule that 'relationships' here are temporary and therefore neither person should get too attached?? And maybe, no matter how much you think you are in love, you are only kidding yourself. If so, I'm in trouble. Simplekate....have you found answers yet?

I just want to spend my time doing more things like surfing from the internet and chatting with interesting people, aside from doing my work in the office. I want my mind to be very busy...so i would not focus all my time thinking of him! I know it's a great feeling being in love..but it should be mutual, right?! He's very busy with his work, that sometimes he almost forgot to think of me, even sending a single message of saying "HI and HELLO" These simple things that i am expecting from him, which i think he's not used to.

Do you think i might believe him? I was thinking of meeting new people just to get rid of thinking of him...
