Dating in Lebanon vs. Abroad: A Community Perspective

To all of you who think dating outside of Lebanon is better trust me it's not

This is a reply to the post about a guy complaining how dating girls in Lebanon is hard.

I am here to offer a different perspective,

I am a young college girl(starting in september) who moved from Lebanon to Canada in my teens. Lowkey I haven't tried the dating scene in Lebanon or even tried dating Lebanese here because ya'll are so rare where I live.

But lowkey if you are a girl and don't want guys to use you, ignore you or just straight up tell you they will kill themselves if you leave just don't date outside your culture and don't date westerners unless you actually find a good guy which yes there are good guys out there but, most of them don't understand boundaries like no sex before marriage and no living together before marriage(if you have those boundaries at-least, I'd assume if you're a Lebanese girl you do but I don't want to Generalize) , they usually wanna "try you out" before marrying you.(Talking about western guys here)

Dating westerners is not better than dating Lebanese guys. I know Cause i've dated 3 guys outside of Lebanon and non of them respected my boundaries and wanted more, the last guy just started ignoring me after I set my boundaries (it seemed like he lost interest but didn't wanna break up). HOWEVER, I haven't tried dating Lebanese guys so take my advice with a grain of salt. Lowkey also heard bad stuff bout you guys from the girlies so idk tbh

TLDR; Dating scene is fucked everywhere not just Lebanon
