Anyone who knows me knows that I am an extroverted person
who thrives off of new people and new experiences. For me, I lived in Chicago where I had an
amazing network of friends. I lived in
LA with an even better network of friends and leaving them was
heartbreaking. I lived in New York where
I had good network of friends. Each
city I move into I build my own “social network.” Now living in Casablanca, I would like to get
myself connected with a nice group of friends.
Friends to go to dinner with, cook meals with, go to the movies, explore
Morocco, go dancing, road trips, and just laugh and enjoy with.
In Casablanca, I started off with this positive mentality,
but then came to realize the truth. The girls seem to be really busy and it is
difficult to meet with them. The men are
always available because they want to sleep with you. While this not true with everyone, it just is
the reality of the friendship between men and women. Naturally, if the men have
an attraction towards the women this will be on their mind and in their intentions.
Being a bit naïve to this reality and just wanting to have cool guys as my
friends, I realize that this can not always be the case, especially in
Morocco.
Some “friends” have just come off as cool and nice and then
they CHANGE on you. I can see these
suttle changes and in my head I say to myself, “Oh great” or “Here we go
again.” I can tell through the body language and especially through the eye
contact. The eyes are very strong and revealing on every human being.
When he looks at me, I can tell if he wants to sleep with
me. This sounds awful, but is very true
and unfortunately I have seen these eyes from many men. One may think so what? Can’t you still “just
be friends”? Yes, we can still be friends until the romantic signals become
weird, awkward, and uncomfortable. There are many guys that may have this intention, but we are
still great friends. It is the ones that
make things weird and ruin the friendship with their romantic interest.
