When’s the last time you changed your mind? I don’t mean about what to have for breakfast but changed your mind about a deeply held belief? Its not an easy thing to do but by challenging our assumptions we can sometimes see the world more clearly. That’s what Shemsah Farooq did by re-examining her beliefs about who she might like to marry. As a never previously married high flying professional Muslim woman she had always thought she should try to find a spouse of a similar status; but all that changed a couple of years ago on the eve of the pandemic.As usual this is a meandering conversation with the air of two people shooting the breeze about the oddities of Muslim dating :)Some of the topics we discuss are:- Halal pandemic dating.- Why people find it hard to meet and prefer to text.- Finding a spouse without fixating on trying to find a spouse.- Managing mismatched expectations and rejection.- How a good healthy divorce purges bad habits, builds resilience and develops depth of character.- Wondering if single people can cope with a divorcee.- Why it might be in your interest to widen your search.- The pros/cons of marrying a divorcee. - The difference between baggage and experience. - How to retain optimism in your search.- And ‘Living the possibility of love’. :)If you have any comments, feedback or suggestions pls DM me on Twitter/Insta: @moiazamOr email me [email protected]Enjoy!
