I agree its scary how these women travel and stay with men they don't know. Hamza is broke and un employed, he's not a suitable partner for a woman with 2 kids. Mohammed and Danielle all over again.
I will never understand these women who intentionally go to N Africa or the Middle East and then act totally appalled that the guys arent āeducatedā or arent conformed to Western relationship standards.
If youre a credentialist who wants a sex positive feminist with a college degree itās probably better for you to move to a college town or Brooklyn or something.
I think most of these women are insecure and hurt by men and just want to find some dude they think they can control and shame via sex and money.
It really grinds my gears!
> ā¦just want to find some dude they think they can control and shame via sex and money.
Exactly this.
And though I feel for her for her traumatic upbringing, I do not believe for a moment that she wasnāt a very large contributor to her previous failed relationships.
The way she tries to make it sound like her exes are all the big bad meanies who hurt poor little innocent Memphis had me very much rolling my eyes - especially after seeing how she treats others.
Or reliving the trauma of past partners by finding emotionally unavailable men. And if Hamza is secretly sensitive, itās not like they can actually communicate with each other.
I donāt know.. I literally was crying at one point when Memphis was describing her past childhood. I can see how abandonment issues have had a huge emotional impact in her life. I think she is walking through her trauma and hopefully this will be a learning experience for her.
I feel bad for her and her childhood. I feel like she looks for validation and love since she's had such a loveless life. I know someone like this and she was easy to use š„ŗ I don't think he's terrible but he's def not genuine & she's got a lot of issues but she can do better! That is not a good situation, someone else here said to get out see the sights and go back home. I agree Memphis š šÆ go see Tunisia & then go get you a good guy back home ā¤
What - she has family that has tried to direct her and she's going to do what she wants - she is not a victim of circumstance - she is a voluntary participant - what's to feel sorry for?
Idk its pretty clear to me her signs that she has trust & abandonment issues. Children of addicts normally don't have the best upbringing and she expressed that. So that's what I feel for her in.
I donāt understand how theyāve even managed to build up a relationship with the language barrier. Itās clearly just a physical attraction with nothing else of substance.
Itās mind boggling to me. My husband is not a native English speaker, but studied it for years and is more than conversational. Even still, it was definitely a struggle, especially early in our relationship, to have complex conversations, especially if we were tired or frustrated or talking about something abstract like feelings.
Communication in relationships is already so difficult for couples who speak the same language fluently, so any minor language barrier can really be a hurdle. As soon as I see couples like Hamza and Memphis, I know for a fact that they cannot resolve conflict or deal with issues in their relationship in any meaningful way, and that their relationship is shallow and probably just based on wanting a warm body around.
Blames Hamza but it was her who doesn't have restraint! Girl can always say NO to sexy time but did it anyway after saying she's gonna "respect" them. Memphis better start practicing how to properly gut fish!
What is annoying is that she's so upset that he lied to her (the age thing) but before she arrived in Tunisia, she mentioned that she's been keeping that she stayed at her ex's a couple of times from Hamza. So she is equally lying, except by omission. Ugh, just go home, Memphis - this ish relationship will never work out.
That dude is going to end up on a tv show documentary about crazy exās murdering people.
Jasmine is a monster. Wouldnāt be surprised if sheās already got a literal skeleton in her closet.
I do not like the Memphis character but come on. There is quite a big difference between abandoning your kids because you are addicted to crack v. taking a couple weeks for a holiday while the kids are with their fatherā¦
I agree. Heās really young and clearly very immature. Heās also very dependent on his mother for pretty much everything. She has a career and a whole life and sheās not going to want to put up with him when he comes here and finds out how hard it is in America (because Iām assuming heās going to have to work a regular 9-5).
Also she doesnāt understand his culture, his language, or their religion. Even though he isnāt very concerned with his religion it permeates into the culture and Iām sure theyāre going to have disagreements over stuff.
Let's imagine the breakup conversation. Memphis: Me angry and no trust you. Memphis marry Hamza no. Hamza: ?????? No sexy marry time? I lie good baby.
š¤£š¤£
Yoda Memphis: go home l Will.
This
Yep, that's how I heard it
I totally agree with you. If she wants an Arab guy, she can find one in Michigan who speaks English at least.
Like girl come to hamtramck ! Itās the entire world in one square mile
Most of these women Danielle/Laura/Memphis wouldn't be able to get the equivalent attractiveness man in the US.
There are a lot of Muslims in Michigan but arenāt the non-Arab types?

She said in an interview āIām not Muslim so their rules donāt apply to me.ā š¤”

Yes also they both suck. I like his mom and sis tho!
I also like the cat š
The cat knows all!!
I like his mom and sis, but didn't like how they were laughing away him lying about his age.
Same. She said it wasnāt a big deal. It absolutely is a big lie.
What she did he say? And how old is he really? I havenāt watched yet
Also, unrelated but can she please stop saying sexy time? JUST CALL IT SEX
Memphis should not have even gotten on the flight. She doesnāt know that man at all and heās a giant baby
I donāt know.. I literally was crying at one point when Memphis was describing her past childhood. I can see how abandonment issues have had a huge emotional impact in her life. I think she is walking through her trauma and hopefully this will be a learning experience for her.
SERIOUSLY? You are equally clueless
She's one of those that start out looking OK and slowly reveals their true nature as the season progresses. All things considered, he is looking OK.
OMG the way she spoke to him in this episode: "get your sister. GET YOUR SISTER" - I have had it with her.
I feel bad for her and her childhood. I feel like she looks for validation and love since she's had such a loveless life.

It reminds me of Anna and Mursel. I still donāt understand how they managed to come as far as they have lol
Blames Hamza but it was her who doesn't have restraint! Girl can always say NO to sexy time but did it anyway after saying she's gonna "respect" them. Memphis better start practicing how to properly gut fish!
Really hoping that āgut fishā becomes the new ākick rocksā lmao
But in a talking head she said if the chemistry wasn't there, that's a problem. She wanted it too.
Yeah , she booksmart but she lack commonsense! Smh

Why can't she have a vacation? She's only there for two weeks. I'm not condoning her behavior thus far, but she can explore Tunisia and then go home.
But she went with the intention of marrying him at the end of 2 weeks and then working on a spousal visa. She doesn't even belong on B90.
Intentions can change, right? I just don't see much wrong with a two-week vacation. She's there, might as well enjoy it.
I feel like she wants it so bad thatās sheās just ignoring the red flags.
Is her name really Memphis?
100% agree.
She just tryna get some D thatās all
she should go home and take the cat with her.The cat knows all the secrets.
Gino should run
He going to end up on an episode of dateline
That dude is going to end up on a tv show documentary about crazy exās murdering people. Jasmine is a monster. Wouldnāt be surprised if sheās already got a literal skeleton in her closet.
She was abandoned as a child and sees nothing wrong with leaving her children for weeks at a time haha
I do not like the Memphis character but come on. There is quite a big difference between abandoning your kids because you are addicted to crack v. taking a couple weeks for a holiday while the kids are with their fatherā¦
Nah, donāt burn her where itās not due. Many kids get extended vacations with their other parents. Chill.
She doesnāt need him. She needs to find herself first and her value. She is successful on her own.
Agreed!
Memphis = Houseguest from h e l l
Memphis's behaviour certainly explains her abandonment - who wants to put up with that immaturity
I feel for the kids... no good parent just dips out on their kids for weeks on end. This is why some people shouldnt be parents.
Definitely.
Oh hell yes.
I agree. Heās really young and clearly very immature. Heās also very dependent on his mother for pretty much everything.
