It was about 2 months ago that I fell in love with a girl who was working on her these in our center. At first everything was fine and I really loved her and I think she loved me back. She is not a real Muslim and she just believes in some kind of god or higher power which I could tolerate this without any problem. She hadn't any problem with atheism either. but after a month she refused to continue . the main reason was her traditional views about a shared life and marriage and …
Anyway my last breaking up proved it for me that my problem in dating is not just Islam and Muslims. It is also the culture, traditions and the way most girls think here(Iran). So it caused me to think again about dating internationally! It has another advantage for me too it can ease my immigration.
But I am not optimistic about it at all.
What do you think? Dose anybody have any experience?
Or even is there any suggestion ?!! ;)

It all boils down to if you can handle a long distance relationship. Most people can't, but if the two of you can maintain it, bonza.
ObscureAtheist didn't say anything about long distance dating, it sounds more like his citizenship is from some other country but he's already in Iran himself because notice that he says "here(Iran)".
Yes unfortunately I am still in Iran and this relationship must start in a long distance way! but then ...
as i said i am not optimistic so i know and agree with you but communication can be done via Internet (chat email voice chat, video chat ,....) so it won't be so costly but still as a Persian proverb says : distance doesn't make friendship(or smth like this ..!!!)
'real muslim'?

I hear Iran was tricked by religion and, dunno if all, but heard an Iranian man state 'we are an aryan nation'... yikes, that's not friendly talk in America.

but, yeah, I'll admit I'm attracted to Persian women fersure.
i don't know who are talking about but personally i don't care about race color and ...
and when i said internationally i didn't mean US exclusively
Good luck fellow, but I don't see it working.
you said: "i think that u want international os u cant find other and cos it can help yr immiratio
these are no good reason to make a relationship"
Yes you are right BUT these are not my main reasons for dating(internationally or ...) but the point is these things prevent me from to date here so it s not bad to think about beyond borders!
about culture i think when rationality exists there is no need to stick to traditions and cultural issues however personally i can adapt myself easily to many environments .
yes you are right and because i couldn't find atheist girl here i started to think about international dating!
What i am doing here?! i was born here and still haven't been able to get the rid of here i am an ex-muslim
A long story that i have already written it in my blog the link is in my profile if you are interested in :)
I am in Iran!and not in big city,so i prefer to not mention its name here because as you may know nowadays even internet is not so secure here. i am 27, software engineer,recently have governmental job. i still live with my parents (both are religious Muslims)
and ... http://obscureatheist.wordpress.com
yes you are right about foolish arrogance of Islam at least in other religion the penalty of leaving that is not death!
and thanks for your attentions

i've got no problem with everyone saying "merry christmas" on christmas day.  however, they've turned it into an entire holiday season where it lasts a month or more.  in those situations it should be perfectly acceptable to say "happy holidays" or call it a…

My first funeral as an atheist

Posted by Two Cult Survivor on May 21, 2013 at 11:30am 0 Comments

I posted the bulk of this on another thread, but wanted to add some context separately.

I finally confronted my faith and embraced the fact of my atheism late last August, 2012. Days after I revealed my "epiphany" to a few friends who knew me from another message board, my sister died from Lou Gehrig's Disease (which pissed her off because she hated catching a disease from someone she never f---ed).

THAT was my sister, understand? She was a beautiful, life-loving, potty-mouthed…

Death of a family member

Posted by Larry Taylor on May 20, 2013 at 8:15pm 7 Comments

OK. I am venting. My mother died two weeks ago. She was a “god fearing christian.” Before her death she refused all medical treatment. She wanted to be left alone. She even refused to speak with my brother who is a methodist minister. He is a pip, let me tell you! I suspect she did not believe, but a woman born in her time could not and did not state her actual beliefs. This is the opening salvo to all christians; FUCK YOU! I had so many people come and tell…

Unbelievable!!!!!!!!

Posted by Christy Stewart on May 20, 2013 at 2:17pm 6 Comments

This probably should not have shocked me as much as it did (especially since I am in Texas). I actually thought my coworkers were playing a joke on me because they know I am an atheist. Sadly, this was no joke. This actually happened.

I work in a psychiatric hospital. The doctors who admit patients are general MDs. (Psychiatrists see patients after admission) Yesterday evening we received several calls from irate parents. A new doctor who was doing admissions yesterday actually…
