wow, what a trip to finally see you!
You've got big eyes.
You seem rather light skinned, I thought you'd be darker.
you are Arab and ... ?
I have not taken any photos of me since that passport photo last year.
I look so washed out! I don't want to be remembered that way.
Is your G.F. back over there with you now?

not all arabs are dark skinned, this is just a stereotype.
i am just arab, no and. the skin color is made by origin not nationality or religion.
mine is somewhere in the north of israel (then palastine) and lebanon.
other (mostly muslims) are from the south.
in the south its hot with little to no clouds in the sky, thus the skin color, north is cooler.
no my GF is still in MI, but she's coming for a visit in the summer.
even if you post an older photo of yourself that will be nice too.

you look tall! & she has a warm smile
I sent you the only pictures of me that are in the computer.
I don't feel very "photogenic" lately
I'm a "Mixed-Breed"
My Biological father is 1/2 Irish 1/2 Portuguese
and my Biological Mother is French, English, Irish, German and Swedesh
My Grandfather [from the pix I've seen] looks light skinned.
I'm told he left Portugal as a young boy and "never looked back"
Not knowing my heritage for most of my life, I donn't trip too much on what "mix" someone is.
What I don't like is people who "lead with their pedegree" {they make sure to let it be known.
same with religion, I don't trust it when a person sticks it out there like this one gal did: "I'm a New York Jew!" {she said it like it's a "crown" and that bothered me

when people are born here with certain religion they get also fed with hatred towards the other religions
he will never in his life look in an objective way towards other religions.
he will never consider to convert to other religion seriously , ever!
... well 99% at least

>Parents and society sure try to tell us what to think but who doesn't question that at some stage in life?
people who are full of hatred!
i have met a lot of people who really hate others just because they are muslims, christians, jews, vote for this or that political party .. etc.. etc..
very sad indeed
