All my friends marrying American citizens and getting easy green cards. It’s tough being an independent woman, especially in the Middle Easf. Don’t want to seem like pitying myself but can’t help but feel a bit sad today

What would you do with a green card if you are living in Middle East? Where are you originally from?

like

I’m living in the Middle East because I have a weak passport. If I had a green card, I would live in the US of course

Do you want to live in America? I also say do what makes you happy. Some people are sold a lie that being an independent woman is the most fulfilling lifestyle out there when that’s not true for everyone.

OP - I will volunteer

The US sucks, a lot of Muslims want to make Hijrah to the Middle East. Meanwhile you’re there and want to leave? 👀

Could always apply to US/canadian jobs and see if something works out!

You can easily transfer to the US if you're wuth McK

Alright grill me I don't care. But I matched with a guy on an app and we have great conversations. However, after going on a few dates with him, it's obvious he looks nothing like his pictures. He has grown his hair out a lot and grown king facial hair and it's just not what I was into when we matched? I really thought he looked different and something about his hair being long and so greasy makes it hard for me to be into him. I know I sound awful but what do I do / say?

Hey fishes. I have been offered Management Consultant role with CTC break up in terms of JB, RB, fixed and variable. So is the fixed amount my gross salary without any other deduction except TDS, or will the organisation contribution to PF be also deducted from the fixed component? Also, will claimable components like LTA, mobile bill reimbursement etc. be in addition to this fixed component or will they be included in it?
