I'm a very trusting person. i'll make my guy save all his msn convos with his female friends and i'll go through them with a fine comb to make sure i'm not missing out any inuendos.

Define friends.

Does it mean that you'd call on them at their house and they yours? That you wouldn't mind being in the same room alone with em? That you would spend hours talking on the chat with em?

It's dangerous to push the boundaries of Haram and Halal donchaknow

Default Re: Would you cut off all opposite gender friendships after marriage?

iA whoever i marry should be on the same wavelenght as myself on this. there should be no double standards on this issue islamically speaking

i used to think there was no harm in casual convos but it's really nothing worthwhile like displaced said. makes life less complicated. plus i think it's wrong

it's not about insecurity, it's about agreeing that something like this is wrong. like i wouldnt be ok with non zabiha eating, etc

I like long bike rides out in the open all alone. Gives me time to think about life and the pain lets me know I'm still alive. I have friends and theyre all guys who I kid around with and go to a halaqa with now and then.

Being a loner is nice...Sometimes...
