Top 10 lies an Egyptian woman tells her man



1- Do you know who phoned me yesterday? My ex-boyfriend/husband/fiance.

3- Your salary is fine. I would live with you no matter what.
4- You're the first one ever to touch my hand!!
5- Please don't say so about yourself. You are 170 kg and you still look great. I love you the way you are.
6- Your mom is just like my mom to me.
7- You were great tonight.
8- I was with my mom at the doctor's.
9- A rich engineer working in the Gulf is coming to propose on Thursday.

Funny,

Though number 1 and number 8 don't translate to American culture I don't think.

I don't get those two. I think an American girl or boy is more likely to not tell that an ex called them.

Oh, I am guessing that when a girl wants to do something she doesn't want her man to know about she says she is going to the doctor, so that he will not ask any more questions, as he really doesn't want to hear about stuff that girls do at the doctors?

And he doesn't want to talk to the mom to confirm the alibi?

Yeah, you're right. It's obviously clear to a Middle Eastern mind only.
Number 1 : She's trying to make him feel jealous.
Number 8 : She was probably with another man or with someone he doen't like. Safest thing to say is she was with her mom 'coz she's going to be long.
