Y'all find it awkward to talk to Somali dudes. You avoided them. Females are doing the same thing.
ecen at the hospital I volunteered at in downtown I saw a Somali chick and just never tried approaching her. Just minded my business
I wouldn’t say avoid them.
I mean if they talk to me I will talk to them. It’s just awkward, and its usually a mutual feeling between both parties. Like we will sit back and watch as the other talks with the rest of the group, and once we feel comfortable enough we will speak to each other..
I used to have this one somali male friend, and we became friends via this method. Like we wouldn’t really speak to each other in the beginning, until both got comfortable enough. We later became friends.
I think it stems from the xishood in our dhaqan, idk. It’s not on purpose, stop hating on us for something we can’t control waryaa.
And this doesn’t apply to every somali male or female. We’re just speaking from our personal experiences. Respect that..
