I don't want to get on a tangent, but is it possible that these guys have complexes from American women.

I wonder how many times this Ron-Jeremy-lookalike (and probaby wannabe) was repelled by American women?

I have always heard about "hell hath no fury...", but Sheesh, I thought that applied to women only.

...and, no, ladies, I am not blaming this on you or anything like that

I think this is a real stretch. I live in the largest Middle Eastern community on the West Coast.

I see many, and I mean many, fair-blue-eyed, American girls burka'd up with Arab men. It seems that some women here like that just like some like bikers.

So he may have been rejected but also may have been pursued by other American girls in college.

Well, as someone who remembers going to a NY University branch in the 60's, where they liked to bill themselves as an International school, easy commute from NYC, there were Syrians, Eqyptians, Iranians (who called themselves Persians) and if I recall correctly, Miss Japan. Quite an eclectic group of students.

These were the days when we were in close contact with the Shah of Iran, and it seemed that Iranians with money wanted their sons and daughters educated in America.

I remember going out with two of them but honestly don't remember what their religion was. They may have been muslim. One of them announced on the first coffee date that he was betrothed and would return home to marry. There was no second date.

The second was something of a ladies' man, had an apartment with 2 other guys off campus, and I remember there were some stories about wild parties. I didn't go out with this one again either - while he was pre-med as was I, it was obvious he was only out for one thing, and I wasn't.

Interestingly, he later became an American citizen and competed in skiing, representing America in the Olympics.

To this day, I beat most people at Backgammon - thanks to having played with the ME's at my college - the only thing I can look back at as having learned about or from them!!
