I hope the OP isn't expecting an instant circle of friends. His English will probably improve within a few months. But you're right about the first point--I forgot. OP, you'll face obstacles with women due to perceptions about the culture and fears about how the women might be treated over time, or if they went back to your country with you. Sorry, but this is the truth. And it's not only Arabic culture (though there may be differences from one country to the next, I don't know, nor does the average American); I suspect this is one reason why so many computer programmers from India in the San Francisco Bay Area have a problem.

I said, Arab falls more into the Asian guy group because Arabs are not very popular amongst American women as far as I know. I didn't mean that Arabs are all demographically Asians.
Who told you this ??? This is not true because the comparison is unfair

Ask yourself how many of Asian Viamrica compared to Arabs in the United States ??

There are no comparison, of course, the number of Asian much more than the Arabs

More Arab students and a few refugees

Yet there are thousands of american girls are married to Arab

Number plays a big role


Asian accept any girl, even if she *****

I think this point you should not forget it's a fact

Go to Japan and see how they live to have no social life, unlike the Arabs


I think so because you have the wrong concept about the Arabs thou confuse the case with the state and an Arab one among all Arab countries

I know that many here are attracted to features such as owning a super cars or wear brands

* But I am not looking for this type of relationship, because it is a relationship between the two is false

look for a real relationship of friendship

thank you
I've been reading some of the posts here wondering if people are joking just to scare you or what their problem is...

Yes, you will be able to find people who will want a relationship with you. There's plenty of people out there who love talking to foreigners. If you are actively trying to learn and make improvements and such, nobody will fault you for not having great English yet.
I've had friends from Iraq, Bangladesh, Nigeria, Indonesia, Germany, etc. Not all of them could speak English well and in some cases barely any at all; but they are all generally accepted. Nobody made fun of them. Most of them have had several girlfriends or boyfriends too.

Not everywhere will be the same, but I can guarantee you that if you are a decent person who is reasonably outgoing, you should have no troubles.
I'd be more worried about learning the language so that you could find good jobs.

You'll be fine!

Yes I understand and can appreciate your concerns

What's your social life like? .... Or more importantly what do you do NOW in terms of looking for women?
