A special series on finding a bae, we hear from our resident dating Muslimah on the sorts of guys she comes across.

Immy, Immy, Immy- I am happy that you’re having the time of your life. You like travelling? Yay for you! It’s good to broaden your horizons and learn about other cultures. Well done to you for appreciating the beauty of the world- SubhanAllah.

I am not happy that this is all you insist on talking about. I mean there’s only so many times I can say “Great!” and “have fun!” I can try. I do try. I try to be supportive. I even LOL when you suggest I am jealous. For your sake I will even try and muster up some envy. Except I can’t. I can’t muster up much energy whilst being bombarded with snaps of beaches from all over the world. I’m just bored Imran. But maybe that’s because I’m “living life all wrong”, as you suggest.

Imran, save the insufferable repetitive beach photos for your Instagram followers.

From,
A Muslimah who is not on Instagram
