    Location: Opry Mills Mall, Nashville TN...
    Players: ROXRAN, 37.. From U.S.
    ADI, 21.. From Israel

    I know what you're thinking..., older guy, athletic and may I say very handsome. Young middle east girl - very attractive

    It would be easy to see the similarity of the unfortunate McNair like scenario with so much commonality...Afterall, The D&B overprice fun restaurant was only a stone throws away where the former athlete met the eager yet unknowningly mentally disturbed waitress...But alas I got suckered into some cosmetics for my wife which I intended to shop for, but not necessarily out in the open at the small outpost...

    Very flirty and I played along knowing she was into this for the money, but then we got talking about her country and how she just came from Israel a month ago...She apparently digs shooting, and yes she was very attractive, as we are talking she tells me she can give me her email...I decline of course (happy married), maybe I got a tad flirty as well, but it was just for fun...

    Then the thought came to me if I was single, I would have likely taken that info. or more, but how could this be anything but a fleeting moment?

    I have heard of cross religious relationships,..but seriously?

    thoughts?

    I don't know whether to take this thread seriously or just demand pics and scold you for not hitting it.

    ROXRAN, was it one of those dead sea hand lotion places? They bring Israelis over, pay them no salary and have them work on commissions only. The women get VERY flirty. After doing that job for a while, those folks are extremely good sales people. I was working with a retail company several years ago that wanted to hire a ton of them for their stores, but couldn't due to their legal status. The ladies definitely toe the line on what is acceptable from a flirting standpoint.

    If your parents aren't rich and you don't have a university degree, and you aren't a naturally gifted IT person, it's better money than anything else you can do legally here. I know plenty of people that did it gladly...the pay is crap by our standards but you should see how much worse the average waitress makes.

    Roxran, I don't know you, and I'm not exactly sure what you are asking, but if there's one thing I understand, God help me, it's Israeli girls. They are notorious flirts and they figure almost all American guys to be suckers that can be easily played. They are aware of the stereotype most American guys have of them and will play it up. A horny American gets a hard working girl an easy green card.

    As for religion, Israeli only recognizes Orthodox Judaism, and at that a far more conservative interpretation than that of the Orthodox I know practice in the US. The result of that is that most Israelis, even if they believe in God or in any of their customs aren't very religious at all. If she's pushing Dead Sea products in an American mall, you can bet for sure she isn't.

    There's nothing to gain here other than a headache. Tell yourself, "it's just the accent" and go home to your wife. :grin:

    There are a ton of Israelis working in Galleria kiosks selling hand lotion from the dead sea.

    O my, you are completely correct about the place...Yes very flirty, but very good at sales.

    Wait wait wait! I wont let you guys off this easy without giving me a specific name and location of these places with flirtatious Israeli girls. I must visit, as I have been shopping for dead sea lotion products for years ;-)

    One of those Isreali Dead Sea lotions tried to give my wife his email in San Antonio over the summer. He got it thrown in his face and told to "F-off" :grin:

    If there's one thing this post taught me, it's that there's another Rockets fan in Nashville. Hooray!

    I've never heard or seen one of these Dead Sea Hand Lotion kiosks so I can't comment on that. If you are talking about cross dating religions I don't think its too big of a deal unless she happens to be an Orthodox Jew or your family cares about marrying a Jew. I've dated a girl from Israel and an American Jewish girl, who went kind of crazy when she lived in Israel, and religion wasn't a problem for either of them. The Israeli was half Indian and very secular.
