The Scream of the Butterfly

Meeting guys is a hard thing to do here in Amman, one way to get around that I have found is to be introduced to a friend of friends. It always seemed to me to be the safest bet, since if you are friends with A and they are also friends with B, then that must mean that B is a good person. Now don't know if this is a case of Lulwa's logic gone wonky again, but should I not take for granted that if I trust someone and they trust someone that I should trust person 3? Hehehehe...can see you all going HUH?
Ok...let us take a scenario...you are friends with Fat7i, you get a long really well, he is funny, intelligent, has a good job, makes good money, is trustworthy, confident, and just a plain good guy. On a certain night, you are out with Fat7i and he introduces you to Ra2fat, and since Fat7i is so great...you assume that Ra2fat is as well.
Bas we all know what happens when you assume...you make an ass out of you and me!!!
So you are sitting chatting away to the Ra2fat dude, he is quite funny, and quite cute and seems interested...so you are happy assuming-again-that all is well...only to later find out he:

• Has a girlfriend
• Thinks women who stay out past 10:30 pm are sluts
• Thinks women who wear short skirts are prostitutes
• Tells you that he will take you home only to drop you in the middle of the street at 1 am.

So Ra2fat is a twat, but then one has to think what does it mean in regard to Fat7i...I mean mish the saying goes, you can tell a lot about someone by his/her friends...or something along those lines...what is one to think of Fat7i if he has a friend who is so fucking stupid? Does it not mean that he is also a bit of twit...or why else would he be friends with someone like that?

Also what chance do single young women like me have to meet someone in this great city of ours, if I can't depend on my male friends to introduce me to nice, eligible men. I mean seriously I have heard some bizarre stories from friends, who have been introduced to guys by male friends (who tell them that this guy is so your type) only to meet some of the worlds most-well to put it mildly-assholely guys ever! Guys who are either too old, too young, too boring, too vulgar, too nice, too sweet, just too wrong.

I also think that since I introduce my male friends to great women, that this treatment should be reciprocated...bas this is not what is happening...it seems that male friends actually enjoy introducing me to the sort of men that they know with 100% certainty that I won't be interested in.
