Hey Girl,

Do not listen to those haters. Yes, alot of people will tell you this. Every relationship has their ups and downs no matter what race or culture they are from. Judge this on how he treats you. See if he talks to his family about you. Arabic families do not want to hear about girlfriends unless their son is going to marry them. It is a respect thing. Enjoy your relationship and do not make it more complicated by listening to other people. When you guys get serious you will have a talk about religion and any other things that come up in any relationship. Be open and honest. Good luck and all the best.
