Old middle eastern lady called me habibi once in a checkout line..

Still think about that sometimes

An older lady was trying to push two carts at the same time out of a warehouse club store. I was just carrying TP by hand, so I offered to push her extra cart.

She called me her bodyguard. I ascended immediately to heaven.

Love it, dude a guy (recent stroke survivor) cried when I helped him with a flat of water 😊

Helping people can be the most selfish thing you can do hehe

We have Syrian, Iraqi, and others who have recently come to our country. (When I say we and our I also mean them)

My fence is covered in grape leaves from about April to September. I get lots of people around the neighbourhood that come by to take them.

Last year one old dude came and started picking them. I got up to say hello.

He spoke no English.

He said some things and made some gestures and I kinda got the gist.

Went inside got him some water and a cloth.

He drank and wiped his hands.

Shook my hand and said habibi.

I almost cried.

Well I'm crying now.

I misread that as "face" and thought it was an entire story until the water and cloth. 🤪

Love to see it

I never thought about how seldom men get compliments and stuff until some random girl complimented my thick eyebrows 😂

I will never forget that ego boost, was flying high for days lol

Some girl said I had nice eyelashes 12 years ago. I still bring up that at least once a year.

I’m friends with two siblings who frequently refer to any/all of their friends as ‘habibi’ and it makes me feel warm fuzzies every time.
