My girlfriend wants to move to the Middle East (UAE) (we're

you're insane

>>18022734
Gee thanks

>>18022717
Yeah you're fucking crazy

She probably wants to go to UAE because it's good cash. That's the only reason people work in those shitty places

You want to move to a third world dictatorship? Why not North Korea? The climate is better and at least they have drinking water there. Do not do it.
Not even arabs want to live there, they are all 'refugees' in Europe.

Seconding this

She's going to Dubai because she knows Arabic and there are good jobs there for English/Arabic speakers. If her going to another country makes you this angry then please break up for her for her sake.

UAE is nothing like North Korea, it's basically the Arab Switzerland. Any Arab with enough money to gtfo of their own shithole lives there. For the most part they don't care what you do as long as you have money, alcohol is allowed, they even have gay clubs.

As an Arab, I can tell you she's certifiably retarded. Unless she has a lucrative job offer she is wasting her time. There is nothing especially unique or exotic with Dubai, as the only things worth doing there is shopping. Dubai is essentially a giant shopping mall. There is nothing in the way of history or local culture that is worth a damn. It would be fun to live there if you have a ton of money and are happy with spending it on the regular on the same boring, shallow things. If you really want an exotic, liberal nation with a lot of history and just the right amount of fucked up bullshit to make it exciting then come to Lebanon and let your gf go to Dubai and get bored.

>you this angry then please break up for her for her sake.

Already did m8. I don't do long distance anyways

>>18022774

But why make the thread then?

>Go to a country with more syrian refugees and Palestinians in concentration camps than citizens
>Go to a country thats so corrupt it can't even manage to remove garbage from the streets
No thanks

>>18022776
I JUST did it and still shaken by it man. I literally feel like I have to go out and see the world and one-up her

>>18022779
>Go to a country with more syrian refugees and Palestinians in concentration camps than citizens
Lol thats just plain incorrect. But what is true however, is that in Dubai Bengali and Pakistani slave workers far outnumber the backwards native population (who are essentially bedouin gypsies with loads of cash).

>Go to a country thats so corrupt it can't even manage to remove garbage from the streets
And Dubai's solution to waste management is to dump all the sewage into holes in the desert.

At least we are genuine with ourselves, we know we're a shithole but we still manage to make the most out of it, we don't hide behind a glittery facade and oil money.

If you want to go on holiday and post a bunch of pictures of you having a great time with beautiful foreign women then do it.

It would probably just drive her to jump some sheik dick anyway - assuming she notices you.

I think it's petty but it's your life man.

>>18022783
Personally I think international travel is one of the best things in life, seeing how other people live and think is a great way to broaden your outlook. But you should do these things because you want to, not out of spite.

Alright, fair enough Leb anon.

Did it NEVER, even for a second, cross your mind that her travel ideas might have absolutely nothing to do with you, or sex?

Is it totally beyond possibility that, having studied the culture, she might want to experience it firsthand, or that, having learned the language, she might want to practice it, or that, having researched, she might see job possibilities there, or any number of other reasons she might have that are not all about you?
