A Little Bit About Me
I am considered very bright by some, think quickly and have a lot of energy. I have been described before as charismatic - it seems wrong to mention that myself, but really I say it hoping that it is true! It's a nice word, so I'm going with it. I'm definitely confident, a talker and engaged with other people when I'm with them. I like people. Seems an odd thing to say - but some people don't. I'm not introverted or a loner, so I do like the idea of a busy home with lots of love and laughter. I had that growing up in my family home and I would like to create my own one like that, with lots of kids running around and chaos everywhere : ) My father is my hero. He is the most gentle, peaceful, kind man in the world and has led our family through every trial and tribulation with grace. You couldn't be a better man so I hope one day that my kids will see me with the same eyes. I'm currently doing very well in my career and have been for the past couple of years, which makes me happy, yet I would like to do more and have lots of ideas and dreams. I'm very passionate about the things I care about. Ultimately, I would like to own my own business one day and so look at various opportunities that arise, relying always on Allah to guide me, Inshaa Allah. Still though, I am grateful for my career as I feel it is very important to have a steady and reliable income. I am very close to my family and live with them in Egypt. I'm not the type of person who plods in life, I'm usually brimming with excitement or ideas about something.

What I Am Looking For
I feel that there is so much in the world and so many possibilities that I want to experience them all. I just want to do that with my soulmate beside me. I have some great friends and hang out with them a lot. I would say that friendship is one of the main joys of this life. Alone and with my friends, I enjoy travelling, fishing, video games and good conversation. All that might be fun and I may be happy enough, but I feel that I am ready for a new stage of my life to start now. I have been ready for some time, but it is difficult to find the right person.
I am not like some other men, in that finding the right person, with the right mentality and chemistry between us, is vital to me. There must be the right spark. If I cannot find it, I would rather never marry. I know this is maybe an untraditional point of view in many ways (I know - it's half my deen!) but I want a happy life and to make someone else happy too. I can't settle for someone who is just ok for me. I believe that the right person will be my best friend, soulmate and confidante. This is what I hope for one day. I believe that Allah will bring this for me, Insha Allah.
I do not have any strict ideas looks-wise, at all. Just that she be pretty to me. I do not have very set views on whether she must wear Hijab etc, as believe this is a woman's choice and it is not the most important factor to me. It matters, but not as much as the other qualities. I would like her to have faith within her heart, not just on the outside. So with these elements again I am open-minded.
I would like to find this person wherever she is - whether it is Egypt, Europe, Qatar, Canada or the Arctic. I will move location for the right one - if she happens to live down the road, even better : ) (However, I think my mother might have already mentioned her if that were the case.) I do already have family in the UK, so after Egypt, I could see that that would be a possible location for me. I also have a Scottish sister-in-law who has requested I find her a comrade : )
I think character wise, I would like someone who is fiercely intelligent, passionate and opinionated, while also being kind, caring, considerate and feminine. I would like to be challenged - I definitely do not want a passive, submissive wife. However, I would like to be cared for and have a woman who is happy to create a home with me and will love me completely, like I would her. Ultimately, I think I am looking for an equal partner. Someone who values family above anything else, not someone overly materialistic. Someone who celebrates other people's joy with them, instead of feeling envious. Who loves children and wants to live a big, happy life with someone who has been waiting for her all his life.
Whatever. Keep an open mind everyone tells me. So I will. Here's hoping I find you.
