The most stupid part was that the men were like: "the women should take care of the house and the kids" but then acted outraged when a woman wanted financial support... Like... They want a slave
In Islam, if you marry a woman from a wealthy family, you must provide her with a life that matches the previous standard in her parents’ home or better. So from my side I think nothing wrong with nour standards bc she came from wealthy family
Exactly, Chafic lost it after seeing her. He wanted to sabotage her ”relationship” with Mido so much. That guy fought Simo for talking to dounya, telling her they are not good together, but he did the same with mido, talking badly about nour. And Mido is less than a man, he has such an inferiority complex.
If Chafic is like this on television and so charged. Did you see him throwing Dounia’s hand when Nour was talking? He couldn’t stay seated, clutching his purse, so charged. Can you imagine how he is off camera when they have an argument?!
The reunion was so disturbing to watch. 4 men, 1 woman vs 1 woman because she has a standard was just ridiculous. If you don't like her standard, just walk and leave her alone.
Karma stood up for Nour. I liked how she did not comment what she was saying only asked Chafic to not make fun of Nour's appearance in particular what he said about her lip injections
The dress code of the woman are dressed disgraceful which is against the Teachings of Islam. Many Arab people are arrogant and they think that they are better than other women. I am from South Africa AND I RECENTLY returned from a visit to Saudi Arabia and at a hospital the Doctor asked me if I was born MUSLIM even though I was fully dressed in proper Islamic Hijab...and I asked the female Doctor why is she asking me such a question....MUSLIM Women in SOUTH AFRICA we àre not forced to follow the rules of Islam....we do it on our own because Islam is perfect and not people
She didn't say hi... and he is so unbothered, he is actually writing a whole dissertation about it! Will present it at a conference, publish it in academic journals... everyone will know just how little he cares
She is a legend. I think the stuff she said about guys paying is over scrutinised. Like she's incredibly clever, thoughtful and beautiful. She doesn't need a man. So why should she accept one that isn't on the same level as her?
thats not the issue, the guys havent disagreed with wanting to provide, their issue is her acting like the other girls are low class and literally saying nothing else in the show
@@englishblade It was definitely an issue for them, otherwise they wouldn't have mentioned it in their arguments lol. Their ego was bruised by her saying the "quiet part" out loud and so bluntly. She was also fairly rude to them but if we're being honest, so were they.
@@englishblade Of course lol. She never directly challenged the men in the same ways Nour did. The combination ruffled their feathers and understandably so but squabbling like women? Never going to end well.

Are you kidding? Nour gave Chafik attention and clearly used the other guy to stay in the show and chase Chafik! She gave him a book showered in her perfume lol she knows he is the richest among them, that is why he called her an ATM machine and got angry at her! Dunia is YOUNGER THAN HIM and a gap of almost 5 years with an older woman is not a good thing in those cultures, besides a younger woman is better than one who is about to complete 30 years old! Dunia being inexperient is treated as a valuable thing there, A VIRTUE the mother of your kids must have that is why everyone in his family loved her. They get she is TRADITIONAL enought to be a wife and mother to their grandkids! I HATE it all and love Nour, but you guys got it all wrong because of your western pov😮

its the double standars that the man can leave when they don't have a pure girl angel like, but when the woman wants a provider or fit guy nooooo she's the devil
Noor said the feminists ruined her life….but she is CLEARLY a feminist. 2 university degrees, a successful career, and the confidence to call out men for childish behavior? Yup! She’s fully a feminist! I hope she soon realizes being a feminist is good!
I think she likes the patriarchy- men being hold of authority/ responsibility. Something feminists constantly complain about and try to change. So I don't think she'd agree with you.
@@im26c4u5i think you got that wrong, she said she doesn’t like being expected to be independent and going 50/50. She’s just a girly who wants to be taken care of.
I think I know what she means and its a complicated topic because the word means different things to different people. I dont agree w you that she will realize that she is a feminist BUT I love your comment which is very interesting =)
Nour is Queen during the reunion. Honestly if it was me I would had walked off crying and the men would have won or say playing the victim. Nour stayed so calm and smart. Her family should be proud of her. I swear Mido has been practicing what to say to Nour since he left the villa… lol I had issues with Asma when the whole bullying was happening. Her laughing and then clapping so loud and praising Mido at the end. Also the male host not saying anything left me thinking that he felt the same way as the men.
I didn't like Nour in the beginning, but after watching what she had been though because of insecure Dounia, Mido and manipulative Chafiq, I grew to love her. As you can see, she is so calm and respectful to others - bless her parent for raising such a treasure.
So you only love her because you sympathize with her lol? calling Dounia insecure just makes you another bully btw.. bullying a woman for another woman is not what a girl's girl does, it is giving you're just a judgmental bully hun.
The way she handled herself during the reunion instantly mad her my favorite! 😍 She roasted the sh*t out of those toxic insecure men. Beautiful to see that side of her.
@@godsfavcreatorthe Dounia girl is just dumb imao... Chill and hop off your high moral horse 😂 Why should i close my eyes to someone's stupidity based on their sex? Don't care about that, I call it as it is.
Girl I couldn't finish the show I stopped at episode 5, the men are extremely immature and childish. I'm Syrian and I couldn't stand Ammar, he gave me a major ick since the beginning, we don't claim this self-proclaimed "man". Jeez, I'm tired on behalf of all of the women, even though I can't agree with them on some points but at least they weren't disrespectful and childish like the "men". Also, Chafik loves attention-seeking so much that he loves to butt women against one another and uses triangulation. When he yelled that he loves Dunia at the beginning he knew that that was disrespectful toward the other girls and it might start drama but the girls were more mature and just talked to him instead of fighting each other. He also made a big deal about his "history" with Noor, he made Dunia worried about her, told Mido that he's better than her, and told anybody who would listen that he had a history with her and that she didn't shake his hand. He's such a drama king. Anyway, I genuinely hope that this experience humbles them and that they grow up from it because oooof their level of mental and emotional maturity is upsetting.
I absolutely agree with you chafik loves drama and feeling important, putting women against each other. hopefully dounia realizes it soon and understands that nour was actually helping her to realize what type of man chafik
Omg thank you. People who don't see the toxicity of Chafic are blind... for me, he's the worst with Mido they play innocent. At least, Ammar and Simo who got a lot more hate are obvious about their choices, so the girls can avoid them from the beginning without wasting time.
24:44 In response to what you just said, I think men in that situation are mad because she “makes herself a product” but still won’t “sell it” to him! Still just jealousy and self loathing.
My brain stopped when Mido was having comments about Nour's "fake" beauty, wasn't he the one that complimented her lips??? I was just like... WHAT??? Oh my god these men and their audacity. Good job on you for making it through this video without screaming. And Nour was not my favourite during the show as well. But the way she handled the reunion, QUEEN. From now on I will be channelling my inner Nour when facing stupid men.
I have an unpopular opinion: I think Khattab was giving a “diplomatic answer.” In other words, I don’t believe he was telling the full truth; instead, he had to give a reason to explain the outcome and chose a diplomatic approach. In reality, I think Asma simply wasn’t that into him, and he sensed this over the course of their journey together. Initially, Khattab seemed hopeful that her hesitation was just stress, and that over time, he would grow on her. But by the wedding scene, it was pretty clear-she actually said “no” while laughing. It might have been a nervous laugh, but she didn’t reassure Khattab or give him the impression that she truly wanted him. Instead, he found himself comforting her. I believe that after the show, Khattab likely made an effort to win her over, but eventually reached a point where he realized she wasn’t interested, and he didn’t feel wanted. At that stage, he did what many guys might do in that situation: they distance themselves and wait for the girl to end things.
@@englishbladeThe point is, why is she looking down at Nour for getting work done when she did the same? It was very hypocritical of her, and she lied, claiming she was natural
@@englishblade okay but that's not the point, no one called her ugly, she's a pretty woman but when he said "at least dounia has natural beauty" she sat there and said "yeah" like girl...
As an American man, I was disappointed in how everyone treated Nour. I see nothing wrong with her having a standard and expectation for herself. If they didn't like it, then move on. But Mido was the worst. I don't remember Nour really doing anything negative toward him. She called him a child because he left without a word. Otherwise, she was still respectful toward him despite his constant attacks against her character and looks. But! He chose her to propose...so there was something that he liked prior to even seeing her, right? The fellas and some of the women were wrong!
SO glad you are here to sum it all up for me with wit, charm and insightful analysis. I don't think l could sit through an entire season of LIB Habibi or even an entire episode.
Loved your analysis. I'm a former Israeli and a jew, but these man absolutely demonstrated the sexism of the region. Which just goes to show that it has way more to do with culture than religion, because both Muslim and Jewish men subscribe to this. Gods bless Noor and the other women for exposing them to the world.
New subbie I love your analysis style! My friends get so exhausted when I deep dive into these reality series😅, but you were spot on, you picked up on everything I did - including Mido's "nice guy" act!
Girl I agree with you about all of this but my opinion the biggest mistake nour did was that when she saw mido she know she don’t like him I think she can just be honest and reject him but all she do was like yeah just relaxing and don’t communicate well and I think she just wants to be this show more time so bad 😊
Thank you for watching for us. I didnt have the patience to go through the whole season, i was so triggered by the behavior of these men. Muhammad was my last hope, and he started to lose me during the wedding preparations. I love your perspectives and the analysis of the power dynamics and manipulation going on. I would love to have your take on the LIB US season 7. I found that i disagreed with a lot of online takes. I felt the male cast was also so sexist. There were showing very different shades of sexism, from the very obvious one like Tim or Stephen, to the covert one like Ramses and Garett. Anyway, love your content!
I love all your reactions! i love how irritated you were and cannot believe what's happening. It's so disrespectful for Chaffic to mock the looks of the girls, and I hated that the host were not saying anything until the other girls said something..
I have also met people who freak out because they aren't greeted, and I never understood being so hurt, just because someone doesn't have good manners or is absentminded. Or in fact, doesn't like you that much. It's all about the ego. It hurts them to know that they are not that important to others, because their self-image depends on other people feeding their delusion of importance. It's a lot of entitlement. Chafik built his ego on the sand of the interest of the most beautiful girl there.
Interesting comment, especially the last sentence. However, l would take issue with Nour being "the most beautiful woman there. They were all beautiful and frankly, l don't think Nour's "trout pout" will age well. IMHO.
@@c.a.savage5689 Of course they are all beautiful, they are casted for a TV show, I am just talking about Chafiks perspective and the angle the show took.
Well said, I know I fell for it during the show and thought how full of herself Nour was. After the reunion, my opinion changed. I did pick up the rejection by these guys especially when chafiq was soooooo upset she didn’t say high to him.
The only thing I think she did wrong was not being honest with mido, I am pretty sure mido was right that she was not into him and she was in denial about it externally lol. Aside from that, not her fault, all of them being immature towards her or jealous.
The reunion was so hard to watch. At the end why did he makeup with Chafic and not Nour? Also, Dounia posted about getting filler and that she has wanted it for years but her mother wouldn't let her.
It’s crazy she's still with chafic after watching the show... he's super flirty. He's her first bf, she will likely develop more complex and do more of those interventions. It's pretty hypocrite of her after being all smile when mido called her natural beauty and mocked Nour for being a fake beauty...
lool I loved when little Mido walked through the stage to shake Noor's hand and she barely moved. That's all he's gonna get out of her. These men really looked pathetic trying to take down the woman who rejected them.
I am happy for the one married couple that is still together. Glad they found each other and I hope it works out. The gang up on Nour was disturbing and uncomfortable to watch. It’s clear why Mido’s bitter, and his behavior, small (pun intended) as it may have been, was expected. But I wish Chafic and Dounia focused on each other and their relationship instead of trying to tear down Nour. First of all the only person who could’ve played the role of Cher Horowitz better than Alicia Silverstone in Clueless, is Dounia… Seriously, if they rebooted Clueless, they could cast her as the lead and call it a documentary. Despite, facing an unjust onslaught of attacks fueled by others’ insecurities, Nour stood her ground with unwavering strength and defended her values with poise and grace, embodying dignity and pride in the face of adversity.
I think the plot thickened thanks to Nour, she went on the show made the most out of it like a challenge but was edited out to become the antagonist. She got rejected in the pods, Mido left her in the resort and most the guys and Dounya ganged up on her because of how she was portayed yet she stayed strong throughout it. Not many are as strong as such which is why many like her, though I'm not saying all her actions were ok. By the end I liked Nour, Karma and Khathab. Asma, Dounya and the rest of the guys were major red flags.
i can't be bothered to watch this show but it's so interesting listening to your perspective as a cultural outsider on the behaviour and mentality of these men (and many of the women too)
Men were extremely toxic, but I am glad that women didn't settle for less and decided to walk away. There stupidity was dripping all over in the reunion. Nour was the star 🌟 She handled everything with elegance. I am so proud of the girls..... and dounia, nour is not your enemy, you will understand soon :)
I really liked your video This was a really good coverage of the reunion while also providing context. I couldn't bring myself to watch the reunion. I just really disliked all the men.
@@katrinetroelsen no idea, It’s on her TikTok. She hasn’t badmouthed anyone but it seems like everyone else isn’t talking nicely of her. What I stated was her response. People are asking her to tell the world what actually happened but I don’t know if she can legally. Maybe, I’m projecting but I don’t believe she’s a bad person. I think she’s a little awkward and shy. I used be like her especially when I was feeling uncomfortable but I learned not to care and just ignore and speak the truth. Now people think I’m not nice.🤷♀️🤣
Nour Is the exemple of strong confident woman she knows her worth on the other side you have Dounia a very weak personality a woman with no voice a submissive woman ready to let go her values for a man
I think Nour was trying to give him a chance to win her over. Like ask her what she likes to do when she’s not modelling. Are you passionate about something? I feel you come up shy at first, what can we do to break the ice? They all found out she had 2 degrees and knew 3 languages at the reunion but never bothered to ask her about herself. And yeah, maybe Nour wasn’t interested in the project at all and just wanted to be in the show. She could’ve been more honest about that with the guy and still have fun with him. But the little man big ego complex was stronger and didn’t allow him to think clearly. These men never tried to meet anyone and find out about them, they think they’re hunting pray. Women just have to say yes to whatever they say.
I’ve known all of this since I watched “not without my daughter” when I was a little girl. Their way of thinking scares the shit outta me. Not ALL but the specific men stuck in their strange way of thinking.
It’s the cultural norm of the men and the statistics majority of men who create this toxic social standard. Being honest about the negative outcomes for women is the only way to address change
You’re basing all of your opinions about a group of people based on a movie? So one persons story is all you need? Arab/ Muslim people are a monolith to you? Yikes. How aren’t you embarrassed?
How can you say Dunia is not valuable? Just because your culture is different? Dunia is valuable but also she needs to refine her character and stop bashing other women
@@Aenaorki4197 It would be very interesting if this is the real reason and they are all hiding it behind other reasons (like shit reasons, basically they hate her for having standards)
I know that my opinion will create some type of negativity, but Noor is not beautiful nor even pretty, she is a normal woman with some fillers and Botox, nothing like people or herself think of. I think she looks like the woman on the Korean series Maks Girl of course a little better but she reminds me of her.
The whole time I was watching this video, I was thinking to myself that Adnan from 90 day fiance should have been on love is blind habibi instead of being stuck with Tigerlily who is clearly not going to follow his double standards 😂 Adnan would have definitely met the right woman on love is blind habibi 😅 Could you please do a video of Adnan and Tigerlily on 90 day fiance? I’m so curious to see what you think 😮
I love Dounia, I like them together. But I need Chafiq to become less misogynistic. I didn't appreciate how he was trying to shush Nour or tell her that she can't speak to Dounia. Men and women are equals. But he seems to act like he doesn't believe this is so. Also, he let his anger escalate quick over things that weren't necessarily his business.
@@mraheem9214 thank you, I saw their podcast too, theyre so raw and cute to me, even the producers even made them only a cute compilation at the end and shipped them, the part when chafic said i love you dounia through the wall made my heart skip a beat
@@englishblade The one who needed protection was Nour. It was Chafiq who got himself involved first. It was between Nour and Mido. And then it was 2 men and 1 woman against Nour. That wasn't right. Nour is entitled to her preference.
🍿 Part 2 of the reunion is liiiveee -> th-cam.com/video/UY79YZ6NKzw/w-d-xo.html
The most stupid part was that the men were like: "the women should take care of the house and the kids" but then acted outraged when a woman wanted financial support... Like... They want a slave
In Islam, if you marry a woman from a wealthy family, you must provide her with a life that matches the previous standard in her parents’ home or better. So from my side I think nothing wrong with nour standards bc she came from wealthy family
Is that culture? Because I can't remember reading anything supporting that
It seems to me that most people in any culture that grows up in wealth wants to continue to live like that, man or woman
Those 2 men wanted Nour so bad. This is the kind of thing boys do in high school when they can’t have a girl. 😂
Facts 😂😂
No way
Exactly, Chafic lost it after seeing her. He wanted to sabotage her ”relationship” with Mido so much. That guy fought Simo for talking to dounya, telling her they are not good together, but he did the same with mido, talking badly about nour. And Mido is less than a man, he has such an inferiority complex.
Chafiq was turned down by Nour earlier before the show ، he is insecure and think he can get anyone
If Chafic is like this on television and so charged. Did you see him throwing Dounia’s hand when Nour was talking? He couldn’t stay seated, clutching his purse, so charged. Can you imagine how he is off camera when they have an argument?!
Exactly, I had even a feeling of that man who can raise a hand on a woman!
I already had that thought during the season every time he had a fight with someone. He can't conteol himself. Not a good trait.
would u agree that Chafiq has feelings for Nour? U only get this enraged where feelings are involved
Womanizer , wanna be

Attacking the looks of someone you were so clearly into is on another level of delusional. Nour has been living in their heads rent-free for a year

@@englishblade no it wasnt - she has had a nose job and there was a before and after on the internet way before that- and nour is beautiful too
@@englishbladeThe point is, why is she looking down at Nour for getting work done when she did the same? It was very hypocritical of her, and she lied, claiming she was natural
@@englishblade okay but that's not the point, no one called her ugly, she's a pretty woman but when he said "at least dounia has natural beauty" she sat there and said "yeah" like girl...
@@lalasecretly that might have been filmed before the surgery though, she could have been natural then
Nour made the show and all the men were so bothered that she didn’t want them. It was so disturbing to see their abusive, controlling behavior.
Misogyny is universal!
yes it is but wouldnt u agree with ... how do i say it. i feel like it manifests in very different ways from culture to culture
I love how elegant is Noor , she didn’t even move for a a second , very wholesome of herself , she thought them a lesson
As an American man, I was disappointed in how everyone treated Nour. I see nothing wrong with her having a standard and expectation for herself. If they didn't like it, then move on. But Mido was the worst. I don't remember Nour really doing anything negative toward him. She called him a child because he left without a word. Otherwise, she was still respectful toward him despite his constant attacks against her character and looks. But! He chose her to propose...so there was something that he liked prior to even seeing her, right? The fellas and some of the women were wrong!
love how nour didnt back down
SO glad you are here to sum it all up for me with wit, charm and insightful analysis. I don't think l could sit through an entire season of LIB Habibi or even an entire episode.
Pure high school drama lawd
Dounia is a desperate pick me who has to babysit that man child
I am so sad for nour! She dont deserve they hate, the boys are wrong
Loved your analysis. I'm a former Israeli and a jew, but these man absolutely demonstrated the sexism of the region. Which just goes to show that it has way more to do with culture than religion, because both Muslim and Jewish men subscribe to this. Gods bless Noor and the other women for exposing them to the world.
Chafic is the true bilan of the season. He’s the one putting ideas in everybody’s mind to turn them against Noor.
New subbie I love your analysis style! My friends get so exhausted when I deep dive into these reality series😅, but you were spot on, you picked up on everything I did - including Mido's "nice guy" act!
oh was it an attempt at nice guy? poor attempt, he never seemed nice to me :D i hate him lol
Great takes, I enjoyed your perspective!
Loved your video and ready for part 2!!!
Girl I agree with you about all of this but my opinion the biggest mistake nour did was that when she saw mido she know she don’t like him I think she can just be honest and reject him but all she do was like yeah just relaxing and don’t communicate well and I think she just wants to be this show more time so bad 😊
Thank you for watching for us. I didnt have the patience to go through the whole season, i was so triggered by the behavior of these men. Muhammad was my last hope, and he started to lose me during the wedding preparations.
I love your perspectives and the analysis of the power dynamics and manipulation going on.
I would love to have your take on the LIB US season 7. I found that i disagreed with a lot of online takes. I felt the male cast was also so sexist. There were showing very different shades of sexism, from the very obvious one like Tim or Stephen, to the covert one like Ramses and Garett.
Anyway, love your content!
I love all your reactions! i love how irritated you were and cannot believe what's happening.
It's so disrespectful for Chaffic to mock the looks of the girls, and I hated that the host were not saying anything until the other girls said something..
the hosts were horrible
Yas queen you are slayin. I was totally disgusted by the rampant stinky sexism.
I have also met people who freak out because they aren't greeted, and I never understood being so hurt, just because someone doesn't have good manners or is absentminded. Or in fact, doesn't like you that much. It's all about the ego. It hurts them to know that they are not that important to others, because their self-image depends on other people feeding their delusion of importance. It's a lot of entitlement.
Chafik built his ego on the sand of the interest of the most beautiful girl there.
Interesting comment, especially the last sentence. However, l would take issue with Nour being "the most beautiful woman there. They were all beautiful and frankly, l don't think Nour's "trout pout" will age well. IMHO.
@@c.a.savage5689 Of course they are all beautiful, they are casted for a TV show, I am just talking about Chafiks perspective and the angle the show took.
Love your energy and your commentry is 💯
Now I want to go watch this reunion even though I haven’t watched the show
can’t wait for part 2!!! new subscriber ❤
Well said, I know I fell for it during the show and thought how full of herself Nour was. After the reunion, my opinion changed. I did pick up the rejection by these guys especially when chafiq was soooooo upset she didn’t say high to him.
The only thing I think she did wrong was not being honest with mido, I am pretty sure mido was right that she was not into him and she was in denial about it externally lol. Aside from that, not her fault, all of them being immature towards her or jealous.
omg you are so spot on. allmost the men on that show was disgraceful
she ate them
up🎉
Sis, her name is Noor. Not No-Uur
The reunion was so hard to watch. At the end why did he makeup with Chafic and not Nour? Also, Dounia posted about getting filler and that she has wanted it for years but her mother wouldn't let her.
It’s crazy she's still with chafic after watching the show... he's super flirty. He's her first bf, she will likely develop more complex and do more of those interventions. It's pretty hypocrite of her after being all smile when mido called her natural beauty and mocked Nour for being a fake beauty...
11:34 about Mido & Nour
12:05 Flashback on Mido & Nour
You are soooo right , Chafiq wanted Noor badly , she turned him down
27:30 omg thanks for mentioning this!! dounia always insecure over nour even before chafic meet nour! she already has this negative thoughts of nour
Omg I was so frustrated watching all those men go at Nour like that!! And only one kinda apologized! Smdh
these men are cry babies
lool I loved when little Mido walked through the stage to shake Noor's hand and she barely moved. That's all he's gonna get out of her. These men really looked pathetic trying to take down the woman who rejected them.
I am happy for the one married couple that is still together. Glad they found each other and I hope it works out.
The gang up on Nour was disturbing and uncomfortable to watch. It’s clear why Mido’s bitter, and his behavior, small (pun intended) as it may have been, was expected. But I wish Chafic and Dounia focused on each other and their relationship instead of trying to tear down Nour.
First of all the only person who could’ve played the role of Cher Horowitz better than Alicia Silverstone in Clueless, is Dounia… Seriously, if they rebooted Clueless, they could cast her as the lead and call it a documentary.
Despite, facing an unjust onslaught of attacks fueled by others’ insecurities, Nour stood her ground with unwavering strength and defended her values with poise and grace, embodying dignity and pride in the face of adversity.
I think the plot thickened thanks to Nour, she went on the show made the most out of it like a challenge but was edited out to become the antagonist. She got rejected in the pods, Mido left her in the resort and most the guys and Dounya ganged up on her because of how she was portayed yet she stayed strong throughout it. Not many are as strong as such which is why many like her, though I'm not saying all her actions were ok. By the end I liked Nour, Karma and Khathab. Asma, Dounya and the rest of the guys were major red flags.
i can't be bothered to watch this show but it's so interesting listening to your perspective as a cultural outsider on the behaviour and mentality of these men (and many of the women too)
Cant wait for the next video😭😭
Chafic is 💯 Self centered
They all love nour so bad , but canot afford
Omg thank you do much for this! The bullying of Nour who is a considered and deep thinker was utterly unforgivable. Mido is an insecure bully
The gender dynamics on this show are so fascinating to me, way more interesting than the US LIB, imo
fascinating and depressing no?
Men were extremely toxic, but I am glad that women didn't settle for less and decided to walk away. There stupidity was dripping all over in the reunion. Nour was the star 🌟 She handled everything with elegance. I am so proud of the girls..... and dounia, nour is not your enemy, you will understand soon :)
I really liked your video
This was a really good coverage of the reunion while also providing context.
I couldn't bring myself to watch the reunion. I just really disliked all the men.
Spot oooooonnnnn!!!
Nour actually said that the edit of the show made them look good. It was actually worse than what we saw.
HOW could they possibly be worse!?!?
@@katrinetroelsen no idea, It’s on her TikTok. She hasn’t badmouthed anyone but it seems like everyone else isn’t talking nicely of her. What I stated was her response. People are asking her to tell the world what actually happened but I don’t know if she can legally. Maybe, I’m projecting but I don’t believe she’s a bad person. I think she’s a little awkward and shy. I used be like her especially when I was feeling uncomfortable but I learned not to care and just ignore and speak the truth. Now people think I’m not nice.🤷♀️🤣
Chafik be like : I don’t wanna be racist but… (💀😭)
Nour Is the exemple of strong confident woman she knows her worth on the other side you have Dounia a very weak personality a woman with no voice a submissive woman ready to let go her values for a man
best commentary
Asma was lying, she giggle when she says no
I think Nour was trying to give him a chance to win her over. Like ask her what she likes to do when she’s not modelling. Are you passionate about something? I feel you come up shy at first, what can we do to break the ice?
They all found out she had 2 degrees and knew 3 languages at the reunion but never bothered to ask her about herself.
And yeah, maybe Nour wasn’t interested in the project at all and just wanted to be in the show. She could’ve been more honest about that with the guy and still have fun with him.
But the little man big ego complex was stronger and didn’t allow him to think clearly. These men never tried to meet anyone and find out about them, they think they’re hunting pray. Women just have to say yes to whatever they say.
I agree! Nour definitely ate!! LOL
I’ve known all of this since I watched “not without my daughter” when I was a little girl. Their way of thinking scares the shit outta me. Not ALL but the specific men stuck in their strange way of thinking.
It’s the cultural norm of the men and the statistics majority of men who create this toxic social standard. Being honest about the negative outcomes for women is the only way to address change
You’re basing all of your opinions about a group of people based on a movie? So one persons story is all you need? Arab/ Muslim people are a monolith to you? Yikes. How aren’t you embarrassed?
QUEEN NOUR
They all fake except for Nour , she was herself and that's why attacked
I guess I’m the only one who found Nour to be an entitled princess who was the least attractive of all the women.
Simply its Chafic chasing Nour
All this time , and when rejected its started ، rest of guys insecure
🎉🎉🎉
Unpopular opinion, although they were all a nightmare to watch.. Nour's negativity was just 🤮
How can you say Dunia is not valuable? Just because your culture is different? Dunia is valuable but also she needs to refine her character and stop bashing other women
I think they’re hating nour because she’s not muslim
oh, she isnt? i didnt realize
@ not sure though hehe.
@@Aenaorki4197 It would be very interesting if this is the real reason and they are all hiding it behind other reasons (like shit reasons, basically they hate her for having standards)
I know that my opinion will create some type of negativity, but Noor is not beautiful nor even pretty, she is a normal woman with some fillers and Botox, nothing like people or herself think of. I think she looks like the woman on the Korean series Maks Girl of course a little better but she reminds me of her.
I don't like any of them. The mattued couple is ok, quite mature. The others are not mature enough for a marriage to work.
Nour is just annoying, perfect to have standards but simply it has to go both ways.
Chafic and Donia is d worst!!! Can't say more😅
your eyes r beautiful
lmao am i first?
nour >>>>>>>>>>
The whole time I was watching this video, I was thinking to myself that Adnan from 90 day fiance should have been on love is blind habibi instead of being stuck with Tigerlily who is clearly not going to follow his double standards 😂
Adnan would have definitely met the right woman on love is blind habibi 😅
Could you please do a video of Adnan and Tigerlily on 90 day fiance? I’m so curious to see what you think 😮
Are you NOUR’s PR GUY🤭
she is her own Pr guy, she held herself w more grace than anyone could. if i had been her i would have been violent :-D
@ not bashing Nour.. but to be honest .. She had it coming! That doesn’t mean Im applauding those men.. i know they could have behaved better!
I must be toxic because I love dounia and chafic together, theyre so cute
i mean yea theyre both extremely immature and insecure so they match
I love Dounia, I like them together. But I need Chafiq to become less misogynistic. I didn't appreciate how he was trying to shush Nour or tell her that she can't speak to Dounia. Men and women are equals. But he seems to act like he doesn't believe this is so. Also, he let his anger escalate quick over things that weren't necessarily his business.
@@mraheem9214 thank you, I saw their podcast too, theyre so raw and cute to me, even the producers even made them only a cute compilation at the end and shipped them, the part when chafic said i love you dounia through the wall made my heart skip a beat
@@VictoriousSage hes just being protective of his partner, its a cultural difference
@@englishblade The one who needed protection was Nour. It was Chafiq who got himself involved first. It was between Nour and Mido. And then it was 2 men and 1 woman against Nour. That wasn't right. Nour is entitled to her preference.
