Where I've Lived...

by HijabMan :: posted 13 November 06

I’ve lived with tall, gay, white men who played Dance Dance Revolution in orange shorts, people who drank bottles of Robitussin to get high, black people, white people, a middle-aged white woman who would drink champagne in a fancy glass on the weekend, gay people, polyamorous people, women, men, a French guy who believed music is forbidden but sang old Ace of Base songs offkey, people who don’t speak English, a Turkish guy who believed the Prophet told him to buy a sword, a horse, and a bunch of staffs and ride to Yemen, a German who biked from Germany to Damascus, a guy from the Ivory Coast who only spoke French that accused me of being a Shi’a pretending to be Sunni, a single father and his daughter, people who don’t mind being naked in front of me, those who would sumo wrestle me in the hallway, a pierced and tattooed Muslim bmx biker, a pro-Iraq war convert to Islam, Jews, Christians, Atheists, computer geeks, marine biologists, and a British Pakistani man who clearly stated that I’m a sign of the Day of Judgement and need to die. I’ve even lived with my sister.

Now that I have a place of my own, I can honestly say with complete certainty that my next roommate will be my wife.

Wait HijabMan! What wife?

Hey, I never said I figured that part out yet!

Hahaha, you guys need to read a bit more carefully.

Wow, that’s a lot of (strange) people you’ve lived with…

I like how your sister ends the list….are you accepting biodatas now? or should we expect to see you as the first male in your matrimonial selection?

You’re lucky I remember your random conversations. Who the hell else would put up with you? Your future, currently-nonexistent wife has a lot of craziness cut out for her, buddy boy.

I think I should screen people for you, just to ensure you live a drama-free life. It’s the least I can do.

Also, this part made me laugh: “a Turkish guy who believed the Prophet told him to buy a sword, a horse, and a bunch of staffs and ride to Yemen”

It’s about time you started thinking about this route. You’re no spring chicken buddy!

Seriously, You’re a great guy with a heart of gold. Who wouldn’t want you?

InshaAllah Ta’ala she is everything you wish for but more importantly she is everything you NEED not want you WANT.

You guys are hilarious.

Deeba: No, I don’t do Biodatas. Until tomorrow. ;)

Yasmine: Today is Yasmine day.

Sherifah: It only seems that way online. Wait till you meet me in person. You’ll soon be playing down the gold heart and describing me more like what I am: A Small hairy paki that leaves laundry on the bathroom floor.

There go my chances :)

Figures, the one time you make an effort to respond to comments is on a post that has to do with a future wife. Vy you are so predictable?! (interro-drama!)

PS: So is tomorrow! =)

If this is an ad you should consider posting height, age, location, etc.

Will she be “kufiwoman”?

Welcome! This site serves two main purposes: to entertain and educate the Believing and curious community, and to generate a bit of cash—God willing. But there’s a lot more about HijabMan.
