ExtraHye Posted May 16, 2004 Report Share Posted May 16, 2004 I myself don't see anything wrong with marrying outside your race. Don't understand why parents take it upon themselves to tell their kids whom to marry, and whom not to marry. It's not like they will be spending the rest of their lives with this person. What do you think about this Dude? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
America-Hye Posted May 16, 2004 Report Share Posted May 16, 2004 It IS preferable to marry an Armenian rather than an odar, BUT it is preferable to marry an odar rather than never getting married. There are SO many in the Armenian community who NEVER marry, waiting for the Armenian Mr. Right or Miss Right. Balakian wrote about his three maiden aunts and I know a few very attractive Armenian women who have never married. Ditto some good-looking Armenian men who are very successful. This Armenian taboo has ruined many lives. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maral Posted May 16, 2004 Report Share Posted May 16, 2004 (edited) Our assimilation is inevitable...marrying odars only quickens the process...marrying Armenians should be a priority...In a relationship,the more you have in common with your partner the better chance that your relationship will thrive. But stuff happens...they say the heart knows no race....well maybe lust knows no race Edited May 17, 2004 by Maral Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What do you think about this Dude? to be honest with you I'll say that I woild want all armenians to marry an armenian,but at the same time it's not my responsibility to tell what others to do.I really want to have an armenian wife never know what can future brings,but that is my desire.I have never been in L.A. but I 've heard if i'll go I'll change my mind for having armenian wife,but I don't think so...."WE ARE FEW ,BUT THEY CALL AS ARMENIAN,....LET'S NOT MIX US WITH THEM..

Azat Posted May 16, 2004 Report Share Posted May 16, 2004 Dude, do you have lots of money? What do you drive? These 2 factors would determine if you can marry and Armenian or not.

Seeing how upset you got when a member said something negative about Armenian men. I don't know what type of Armenian girls you've met.... But if a girl is materialistic, they could be Armenian or any other race. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just because your ex wife was like that, doesn't mean all Armenian women are. Don't tell me your younger girlfriend isn't using you for your money. Pllllllllllease.

America-Hye Posted May 16, 2004 Report Share Posted May 16, 2004 I have dated many Armenian women, although except for my ex-wife it was over 20 years ago. The odar women really went for my brother and I. The Armenian women did not. Our parent's home sat near a golf course in an exclusive section of a community known to have poor neighborhoods. The Armenian girls looked down on us for having come from that community. The fact that the 1st VP of one of the largest commercial firms in the US lived across the street from us and the CEO of a mega-corporation lived down the block did not matter to them. They were all trying to impress. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_Anka_ Posted May 16, 2004 Report Share Posted May 16, 2004 I can assure you that the new generation of armenian girls could not be more materialistic (gold diggers). Many young Armenian girls (hayastantsi, beirutsi, parskhay) are growing up to be bitches, and most armenian guys in LA are punks... the future doesn't look so good for my generation. mi xoskov irantsits ban chen nerkaiatsnum shater@ but they think that they're all that just because they drive this or that expensive car or if the know this or that "important'" person. Guys have no repsect for girls at all & girls don't have any integrity. Many of them are very egocentric, especially the guys. I don't understand why some Armenians in LA think that they're all that just because they drive a BMW or a Benz. Whoever has a job is capable of drving the same car. No one said that you have to be rich in order to afford a benz. MOst fo these Armenians are leasing their "expensive" cars which means that they have to give it back in few years. What the hell is wrong with them...or maybe it is the fact that many of them came from the outskirts of yerevan who haven't seen anything in their lives so once they started earning some money by fraud they start pretending that "irank irantsits mets baneren nerakaitsnum" and forgetting who they were before.

I have i many countries in my life and what i have learnd is that rich man never shows that his rich.I know couple of punk ass armenians down here.They don't go to bathroom so they won't get hungry,cuz they don't want to spend money for food.They are ugly ass armenians who has never seen anything in their life.They bought car of value 20000-25000$ and they give out theis all money for it(insurance,payment and more),But trus me they never get laid they just kiss ass of some dirty Russians and call them theis girlfriends. hayastanci armenians are dividet in two parts 1.People who's never seen cell-phones in their life..2.people who came from good families and put alots effort to reach to something in their life. Well you wrote this and I strongly protect your opinion. I have seen armenian girl with turkish very very ugly guy(though she was retard too)she told me if I'm smart enough I have to forget what happened to us 1915 cuz it was long time ago.maybe her mam was prastitute in Turkey like some of armenian woman who went there to make mone(I don't mean all of them). Sometimes i want to come to LA to see what's up,but i know for sure,I might kill some bustards down there.; Well it's so sad that we have such a takanks in our nation......but any way god bless them.

_Anka_ Posted May 17, 2004 Report Share Posted May 17, 2004 I have i many countries in my life and what i have learnd is that rich man never shows that his rich. Decent and "tesats" rich men don't flaunt their money everywhere, but it is the "chtes"and "anvorak" rich men who, as I mentioned above, have never had anything in their lives that do try to impress others. People such as Grzo, Dodi Gago, and other currupt "businessmen" who basically "tsexits durs ekats mardiken irants eutiamb" irants astvatsen hamarum... I used to live right next to grzo and his family in yerevan and I've basically seen how he became what he is today. When I was very young I remember a neighbor of ours who was related to Grzo's family used to give out his used shoes to grzo and his sons to wear because they were not ably to afford new shoes. Grzo's sons (grown men) are thugs by nature. I've seen over the years how they used to beat up some of our neighbors and force them to leave the neighborhood. None of Grzo's sons payed any taxes to the government because one of his sons was married to the sister of Vano siradegian (probably #1 thug in erevan those years). For people like them, laws are only words written on paper. I also remember how Grzo's only daughter walked around the neighborhood in a torn robe with dark dirt (probably didn't take a shower) around her neck. grossss but if u see her today, she'll probably look at you in a way that would make you feel like you're nobody and she is somebody. hehehe... people like that crack me up... but oh well, that's they're own "terutunnerna" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maral Posted May 17, 2004 Report Share Posted May 17, 2004 (edited) Yes there are golddiggers out there....this is hardly a good arguement for going out and finding yourselves non-Armenian girls to marry..men can be just as shallow...EVEN MORE so then women if you ask me...tell me how many of you men would marry and unattractve flat chested woman plzzzzzzzz...it goes both ways...

Anonymouse Posted May 19, 2004 Report Share Posted May 19, 2004 Basically people who complain about never finding that right Armenian, are self-centered, think too highly of themselves, and are way too picky, and they shouldn't even bother waiting for an Armenian. I'm quite fed up with the "Ohh I can't meet the right Armenian". If you aren't going to compromise and youre way too individualistic to sacrifice, of COURSE you're not going to meet you're dreamy Armenian. Stop wasting time, and cut to the chase.

loxxsqueen Posted May 19, 2004 Report Share Posted May 19, 2004 I am an Armenian, and proud, but in no way a nationalist. I believe people are free to choose who they want to be with, and yes that includes Armenians. If you marry an Odar, your culture maybe lost through your kids and their kids. Its inevitable, however I've notice this forum does a really good job of deciphering who may be 1/16 the Armenian . To say that the assimilation of Armenians as a whole is inevitable because of Armenians marrying odars, I think is a huge stretch of the imagination. It depends on the individual, with what ideals he/she was brought up, to what environment he/she was exposed to, and how they shaped as a free-thinking individual. THere are Armenians out there, esp women, who marry just for the sake of getting married (to an Armenian). Some of them havnt even been a relationship before in order to learn and understand what being in a relationship entails. I know of girls who have been married under the age of 20 for God knows what reason. Having things in common with your partner is number one. BUT that doesnt mean that two Armenians belong with eachother because they're Armenian. I think all Armenians are free to chose whom ever they want to be with. Love and understanding are based on Trust and communication. Hey, if you live, eat and breath for the Armenian cause, find an Armenian and have lots of kids, to make up for the ones we lost. But if you find love else where, so be it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
