I met Medo in a tattoo chat room, and the first night we met we fought. He made a stupid remark but later cleared it up. After that I would come online and get off lines from him. And I forgot all about him. So one night I was online and so was he and he IM me. And I asked him who are you? and what the hell do you want? :lol: After that night a friend ship was started. (L)

I met my fiance in France.... He was knocking on my 7th floor appartment window :lol:

He was doing repair work on the scaffolding outside and thought my window was for the building owner's appartment (I lived right next door to her) After that I started seeing him around the building doing work and we started talking.

يَايُّهَا الَّذِينَ ءامَنُوا اسْتَعِينُوا بِالصَّبْرِ وَالصَّلَوةِ اِنَّ اللَّهَ مَعَ الصَّبِرِينَ

We met in his country at a joint excavation with our two universities. He was kind of my boss in the sense he had much more excavation experience and was actually University staff. I was just a regular graduate student that year, although I taught the second year and would have been more his equal.

None of my posts have ever been helpful. Be forewarned.

I was just wondering.

I write about RAI music and I had booked tickets to go to Oran to make mini documentaries about RAI and I met alot of rai singers. We met there for the first time and we were just friends at first and then we fell in love. I was going to ORAN anyway so it was all really an accident. I had bought my tickets in September of 2006 and was completely unsure as of what I was going to do there. I ended up meeting some of the biggest rai performers in North Africa...

If you are married to a Moroccan they will know these people

NASRO ( living in Florida now)

CHEBA ZAHOUANIA knows me

HOUARI DAUPHIN

CHEB REDOUANE

RAINA RAI

CHEBA DJENET

I got to see all the haunts of CHEB HASNI and made a little documentary about it. But I met my husband to be in Country and I had no idea he would eventually become my husband the first time I saw him...
