United Arab Emirates: Getting Engaged to an Emirati:

Hello fellow American I read your post and I want to know I am in the same kind of relationship as you. Do not listeneed to anything negative about the dynamics of your relationship. Emarati men are marrying more foreigners/expats because they don't like what the Emarati women have become. I have been to UAE 9 times since 2001 . I have many local male friends to have opened their souls to be about their marriages and life. I have the privilege of knowing what the men are really feeling these days with all the changes taking place in UAE. A fast influx of money over the last 50/60 years and now they are experiencing the effects of the emarati men studying abroad which has caused their thinking to be more open minded. On top of that emarati women are highly educated and have begun working as equalsoon to emarati men. JUST as we say during the women's rights revolution in the states, Emarati men are starting to feel unappreciated and unneeded by emarati women. The women have money and power and they are happy. if they can achieve all this without a man, then what do they need a husband for. There are many divorces either because the women are lazy and spoiled or too busy with their friends to care for their husbands or because they care about their careers and making money over their husband. THUS emarati men are not getting married till their 30's. Maybe they were arranged once and it failed and there was a divorce. But after that they take their time seeking the perfect girl. I have a love story similar to yours and I too would love to know about the culture and emarati families so that I can make sure to keep this marriage forever. Be careful who you listen too. People will be jealous and will try to break your marriage both expats and emaratis. Follow your heart. Communicate with your HabibI opening. Avoid the jealous people. Hope we can talk more about this.
