[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I became friends with an Egyptian lady 2 years ago. We are NOT super close but she has always been very nice/ friendly. I know her through my husband. I invited her to stay with us for a few days. We recently moved to the south and we're very close to the beach.

This was the worst idea ever. She has caused me to lose sleep, turned her nose up at almost all my meals. She has spent HOURS on the phone talking in Arabic. Last night we got into a pretty intense conversation about the face covering veil. She was upset because Americans do not accept this. She argued that it means America is not really a free country. I usually stay out of politics but this conversation really upset me. I am very against the face covering. She also mentioned how women should not be allowed to smoke but it's ok for men.

I suggested that we go to the beach the first day she arrived, but she let on that she doesn't like the beach because in Egypt the beaches are way nicer. I cooked a typical eggs, toast, potatoes breakfast and she says in Egypt they don't like eggs. We took her out to dinner and she didn't thank us. She had her alarm on very loud the first day and it woke up my toddler at 6 am Saturday morning. I actually had to go into her room and turn it off because it would not stop. I can not wait for this lady to leave my house. I finally snapped at her this afternoon because her phone conversation is so loud that it's preventing my toddler from napping. My husband understands a little Arabic and he could hear she bad mouthing me to her family. She did not know he was close by.

I am only venting here. I can not wait until she leaves tomorrow morning.

I am a foreigner and I can tell that she is from that layer of society that is hard to describe - this people have money and don't have manners. [b]America and Western  Europe is a lot more polished, even lower class, but once you get outside of the US and WU, this is what you get - very opinionated, pretty rude, a lot a gossip people[/b]. Interesting thing is that a lot of them are very genuine, take troubles of others close to heart and jump in to help - really help, not just with advice - when you are in trouble. 
They are just psychologically and socially different))
Congratulations, you just experienced a real world outside of American bubble)))

As an immigrant (who grew up here) from a non Western culture, this is not true.  There are plenty of unpolished low class folks who are loud and brash in US and some WU countries. (my spouse is from WU, and I've been there many times).[/quote]

How can you be an immigrant if you grew up here? You sound really stupid. [/quote]
