Typically how long from when you decide you want to find a partner, does it take to actually find one? I heard 2 years?

She said we had to break up, but we could still be cousins

That's too long, I can go to the mother land and get hitched by tomorrow.

OP is right and I’ve heard the same length

Enjoy your cousin D

But the difference between me and you is that im thoughtful about who I'm getting with. I’m born/raised here, why would I want to marry someone in a different upbringing

Why not? If he or she is a good Muslim and a decent human being and you connect well!! This is the problem, we just eliminate the potential too soon

I wouldn’t get with someone from the “motherland.” 1) bc I don’t connect with a concept as the motherland. Home is the US. 2) typically guys (esp) from there are not educated or open minded or in decent jobs. Some of it is out of their hand, but I won’t put marrying them in mine. 3) I wouldn’t mind a guy who wasn’t US-born, but some part of your life raised here is generally imp. Even someone who’s been here longer than 5 years. It depends on the mentality

She said you could be my aunt/uncles son... 😂

Lol cmon op, K2 too the cake on that one

Okay just wanted to verify the average... obviously it’s an art not a science

Agreed!! except if you broke up with her, she’s def not wanting to be your cousin after that

I think it would be different for everyone - some maybe 2 years, some less, some more... no definite answer

OP, you must have met some seriously strange guys in your motherland if they were generally uneducated, not well employed, and not open-minded. Which types of home countries are you referring to?

Salam. 23M here - all my life I’ve had my back on our faith - never really prayed but had imaan (I guess). After bouts of depression from girl problems (🙄), issues within immediate family, being disappointed expectations I had for myself, etc. I’ve been working on bettering my situation over the years. Faith is the only area where I think I need more guidance. Having trouble relating to friends or family about this. Anyone else been thru something similar? How have you connected back to Islam?
