Single Woman's Life In Dubai

Hmm I was having a late night saj at L&Z on Al Diyafah street when a drunk expat woman was being dragged stumbling down the street by an expat man of the same nationality man, seemingly against her will. After hesitation I got up and approached them as did a local man shortly after me. By the time I reached them, the woman was plonked down on the pavement and the man was trying to drag her up. I asked the woman if she was ok, did she want to go home with the man, she said no, he started yelling at me to leave them alone it was none of my business and he had to get her home before the police came. Just stay out of it b*tch or something to that extent. In the end I wandered off and so did the local man - we both muttered to each other it was a shame when strangers tried to help strangers this is what you get.

to take a slightly different view.. On the lighter side ..The girl must've been really drunk n she would've kept falling down on the street n the guy chose to help her by holding her n draggin .. :) and then perhaps she wanted to sleep on the roadside on the pavement n thats y she said no i dont want to go.. whatever it is.. appreciate your willingness n instincts to help others and to keep an open eye.. rare qualities to find in dubai.

Or were u too drunk as well?

Actually last night I was woken late by the doorbell (late night returning flatmates). And then I tried to go back to sleep but heard this deep humming sound - kind of like an amplified extractor fan (not possible that one was on in the house at that time of the morning) and then the sound change to more of a thrum before gradually waning out. Anyway I freaked out jumped out of my bed, was it a missile from iran coming to target SZR - or was it a large UFO scanning the city and lights of the UAE looking for life forms - sucking up the knowledge and brains of those that were sleeping. I looked out the window to the sky to see if there was a flying object. And saw some strange lights flickering up and down 50 storeys on SZR - then realised that was the new building next to the Fairmont.

I lay down under the covers to try and hide from the impending invasion when I heard the noise again and realised it was an aeroplane.

Oh no! You mean to say they don't exist?

I didn't know you'd been invited, but then I am an idiot, and now a twat also, so sorry about the confusion.

The forum is lucky to have someone as perceptive and astute as you Alex, to warn other readers about idiots and twats like me. Perhaps you should reply to all my posts with a warning that bonk is an idiot.

If you want some help with spelling and grammar, let me know ... oh wait, I almost forgot, I'm the idiot right :wink: ?

i have been to 30+ countries and i cant really think of any one that is more safer than dubai, whether you are a guy or a gal when it comes to safety dubai is it. now as far as the other concerns such as social life/loneliness etc....this depends on your personality. dubai is the city of singles and you can have a blast here! just have to go out and meet people and have fun! or you can sit home and watch dubai tv shows!

Now that someone made me read this 1 year old post I thought I would also put something down so more people could read the last 4 pages and realise it was for nothing. But anyways Dubai is protrayed very badly abroad particularly over last 2 years.

This is not true dubai is a open city, If you have done a violation thats the time for the police to catch or either they will only get your passport and visa copy for a penalty that is not really true. you can live with your friends so that you will pay cheap in accomodation.
