The REAL reasons Arabs have trust issues
It has nothing to do with your parents’ broken promises.
Are you Arab? Do you have a hard time trusting people? Have you always wondered why you’re like that? Well, your trust issues actually developed subconsciously over time due to certain things you encountered as a child. No, it has nothing to do with your parents’ broken promises and it’s not related to the fact that your crush completely ignored you when you were 5 years old.
These are the REAL reasons Arabs have trust issues. P.S: It’s 1000% scientific.
Reason #1: Butter cookie boxes played you more times than you can remember
During your darkest, most stressful days … just when you needed to shove those butter cookies down your throat, the cookie box failed you. Â It made you believe it was there for you, but in reality it was too busy giving its time to those sewing supplies. Talk about friendship.
Reason #2: Nutella jars failed to be there in times of need … because spices
It may have happened once to you as a child, but it scarred you for life. Those jars chose to fill themselves up with spices without even consulting you! How dare they?
Reason #3: Your mom made you believe hamburger in pita bread is legit
But, there comes a moment in all our lives when we find out that hamburger in pita bread is a complete FAKE. And that’s when you believe life is FAKE.
Reason #4: Speaking of hamburger … “HAMburger 3a djej” is a complete fraud
Your parents and restaurant menus made you believe “hamburger 3a djej” is a real thing, but you were let down. Big time.
Reason #5: When people say “give it time” … you know the time will never come
You’ve waited endless hours for people to show up at a gathering … but to Arabs time is just a concept. A timeless, endless concept.
Reason #6: Your father promised to give you his eyes. He did not keep his promise
Blame your father. He is to blame.
Reason #7: You cannot fathom that something can last for more than 3 seconds … thanks to this
Yup, it’s a real challenge.
