...you tell the young lady you are on a date with ( a few small lies):

1) They are always offering me these cute girls from back home, to marry, 25 years my junior, but I don’t want that.

2) Oh, well...My father tried telling the Shah, but he didn’t listen.

3) I had to end it; she was falling in love with me, big time.

4) Everybody thinks I am Italian.

5) I am staying with my parents because my mansion is being remodeled.

6)I have only dated models.

7) I am practically divorced.

8) They fired me because I was Iranian.

9) Oh, that? That was a green card marriage. It really doesn’t count!

10) My Mercedes is in the shop. This crappy car is a friend’s.

11) Oh, oh,....They’re calling me from “work”. I have to go now…there is an emergency, the network is down.

12) I’ll give you a call!

...you tell the gentleman you are on a date with ( a few small lies):

1) They did offer me a modeling job, but the industry is so sleazy, I had to say no.

2) I have sooo many khaastegaars, but I said No to all.

3) Of course I am a virgin.

4) I have been here for 2 years, but I have forgotten Farsi!

5) I don’t care about a man’s money. I want a real man!

6) My grandfather was Reza Shah's best friend.

7) My shenaasnaameh name is " Soghraa", but everyone calls me "Brigitte".

8) All my friends have some “work” done; not me!I believe in staying natural.

9) We had 5 nokar and kolfat and raanandeh in Iran.

10) Who ?Hassan? Oh, please, we were just friends.

They finger print you.

I cannot believe it!

by Ali P. on

You mean she was lying?

I can forgive 1-11, but how could she use sweet Maamaanbozorg as a way of ditching me!! Now THAT's mean! I went home and prayed for her Maamaanbozorg...bless her heart.

I know that one, I know it very well.  You have to make a separate category for it.  It isn't a lie.

At least not in my experience.  As a "khareji".   

Come to think of it, here's one:  You know you are an Iranian when you have lived in the United States since the Revolution and you still call Americans foreigners when you are amongst your hamvatans, even though your English is now better than your Persian.

Was that too long?  Sorry.

Don't listen to canadai.  She's filled with endorphins these days and she's not thinking straight.  Keep 'em rolling, Hassan.  Keep 'em rolling.
