I have a number of Middle Eastern girlfriends. No, I’m not speaking of romantic connections, although I wish I was. You see, I’m really not their type—or I’m not what their family had in mind. “You need to find a good Arab husband,” I once heard a mother say, not knowing I was within earshot. Another girl complained to me that there just weren’t enough choices available for her through work and her social circle. I have tried to point them to Arab dating sites but there is still hesitation. Why would anyone hesitate when
love is on the line?
