So the 75% Muslims fall in the “others” category?

They have very specific criteria for what moon sighting entails. You can read it yourself. And it comes from imams or whatever is the religious authority of that country.

Middle eastern countries has declared Feb 18 as the start of the month, while for Asian countries it’s Feb 19. Australia will also observe it on 19. We are talking about religion here that follows its own rules , not astronomy and lunar movements. It’s not like December 25th. Partner here needs an education

I don’t see anything wrong with mentioning the countries you associate with either. Unless you are looking to create controversy.

I joined fishbowl a month ago and while I’ve seen a couple contentious debates but I must say I’m pleasantly surprised at how respectfully ppl comment on this app even when disagreeing. Usually anonymity on the internet brings out the absolute worst in ppl; they type things anonymously that they would NEVER say in person smh. But I really haven’t seen horrible comments here. I wonder what makes this app diff frm others?

I’m so scared to let a relationship that gives me anxiety go because I’m 36 F and feel like I’m not going to find anyone else. He’s not a horrible person, but he can be inconsistent. When I bring it up to him he says he’ll try harder but then always goes back to default. I stick around because I think it’s more a personality trait and not that he’s not interested in me (maybe I’m naïve). Could really use some encouragement from a bunch of strangers.
