The Guide to Halal (Debatable) Flirting

SOS: No guy seems to see anything in me, I’m always referred to as the “other-girls-friend,” or not talked to at all. I admit I am a little shy, and I go crazy once anyone gets to know me, but after years and years of rejection, I can’t help but look at myself, I don’t think I’m bad looking or anything, but my self-esteem is going down the drain.

Here is our first anecdote for the month of April. Remember this is Anecdote April, we want to hear YOUR halal flirting/dating stories or tips. So keep sending us your stories and if they are cool enough we will post it! Thanks for sharing this. Hope you brothas take notes! Enjoy!!

omgosh this guy totally halal flurted with me and my friend the other day!!! It was brilliant!  He got our information, ages, backgrounds—-and we didn’t even realize it!!!! 

So we were studying our notes in a small Muslim restaurant (nice place to meet mr. right).  He asked us if we were med students, and then told us he was a doctor (ahem), and that he was doing a research study on “blah blah blah” dealing with med students.  And we were like ok.  And he asked if we’d be interested in helping him design a more peer-based learning system for med schools, blah blah.  and was like where are you from, which med school is it - what is your age, these are all questions related to the study.  and then asked for our email addresses so he could send us more information.  then he smiled at us in the end!  batameez!!!!!

Okay Ladies (and Gentlemen), this month we are doing something a little different. We want to hear about YOUR experiences. If you have any anecdotes of a successful halal flirting incident, any tips, or anything you want to share with the halal dating world, email us! We will post anonymously if you want, or if you want the cred we can attach your name.

Many of you have already emailed us with your stories and WE.WANT.MORE. We are only going to post things that are helpful/funny/interesting so we will be filtering out irrelevant stories. So please save the stories about how your 5 year old brother stuck a cheerio up his nose, we’re really not interested (actually that is pretty entertaining so go ahead and send us those stories too, we just won’t post it).

If you’re a sister and have been halal-macked on, we want to hear it! If you’re a former (or current) tool and have messages for the ladies, we want to hear it! If you’re just a lonely soul and want to express yourself we especially want to hear it!

So come one, come all…. email haladating@gmail.com

I have been in love with one guy for about 3 years now, we have been on and off dating. He has had many other girl friends when we’ve been off. i haven’t dated anyone else. He told me yesterday that he wants to try again with me. That this time things really are going to be different. I really want to believe him but I don’t know if I should go down that road again.
Please Help!!!

Sincerely,
Someone who has been seriously hurt
