People make a marriage profile and, in their very first message, say: “Let’s talk on WhatsApp, Instagram, or Snapchat because I’m not very active here.”
Come on, at least talk here first. Get to know each other, exchange introductions, and see if there’s even any compatibility. Why would someone just hand over their phone number or start following you on social media without knowing anything about you?
First, read the bio, share your own bio, introduce yourself, and ask some basic questions. If it seems like there’s potential and the conversation is going somewhere, then you can discuss moving to WhatsApp or elsewhere.
Otherwise, why would anyone give you their WhatsApp number or follow you on Instagram right away?
So I recently matched with a guy. He liked me first. He looked decent, so khair, the conversation started with the usual hello hi.
Naturally, I was expecting the next question to be something like “What do you do?” or “Tell me about yourself.”
Instead, this man went straight to:
“Are you any good at cooking?”
I impulsively replied jokingly, “I’m really bad at it. You?”
He disappeared for a few minutes, so I double-texted to clarify that I meant I don’t cook often, not that I’m incapable of feeding myself.
This guy instantly unmatched me. 😂😂
Honestly, it annoyed me for a second, but then I just sat there laughing at what had happened.
Mind you, I know how to cook. I also know someone has to do it. Cooking isn’t a big deal. But it was both funny and slightly terrifying to see where his priorities were.
Sir, are you looking for a wife or hiring a bawarchi? 🙄
Because that introduction felt less like “getting to know someone” and more like the first round of domestic staff recruitment.
And this isn’t even uncommon. I’ve seen plenty of men happily partying, travelling, hanging out with girls, posting them everywhere, living their best lives. But the moment they start looking for a wife, suddenly it’s:
“We want a simple, saadi si homemaker.”
Translation: someone who won’t ask too many questions about the lifestyle we’ve been enjoying.
Anyway, this was one of the very few matches I’ve made on Muzz, so I don’t know how common this is here.
On the bright side, at least he came straight to the point and didn’t waste my time. 🤷🏻♀️
Can a good person really be found on Muzz? Does loyalty still exist in this era?
I have left everything in Allah's hands. He sees what people hide and knows every intention that hearts conceal.
HasbunAllahu wa Ni'mal Wakeel.
