Asa Harvey no lmao, she’s obviously used to laid back American culture and isn’t ready for the strict rules in his country. No reason to bring up feminism or being a “ho”. Literally just a cultural difference
Everyone blaming her and acting surprised about her reaction. Imagine feeling attacked and you feel like your doing the best to please somebody just to be verbally and emotionally abused. I would panic too
Naw she had that shyt coming she came in there with an attitude because of an argument that she didn't let go. Shes rude and disrespectful to their county and beliefs. As crazy as any religion is thats their culture. She didn't wanna respect it so she acted like brat. Yazan its at fault too he should of gotten someone that respects his religion and beliefs. Here in America we see it wrong but thats their county and that how it is. 🙄
They’re actually trying to fool her.... in the Arab culture that shit is false as fuck... nobody can ever say such a thing but apparently his parents didn’t like her that’s why his mother went nuts
I feel her pain but its obvious that they r not compatible....he needs to be with someone in his own culture ...she needs time to heal and do her until she is ready to meet someone who understands her
As someone who’s traveled, I can definitely say respect definitely isn’t cultural! I’ve lived in Muslim countries where all I got was respect! They disrespected her because she’s not Muslim! His family is just rude!
@@laurencameron3150 I think its just the parents. Like, they represent Jordan poorly in terms of how parents can be. I understand these parents are an extreme, and the mom a Karen.
@@downnthevalley1028 no. There are loads of black Arabs. I'm one of them. Stop with this tired narrative. The issue is that she has overtly sexy social media pictures. It's really not a good look in our culture. However, the mother has no compassion. She should have spoken differently in a more understanding way. Also her fiancé didn't defend her. Her future father in-law was the one who was more worried about her. That's not good. Yazan didn't defend his fiance spontaneously.
@@LL-ip5mm and I responded, that I can't explain consent and respect to you. I wish you good luck if that's how well you would listen to your partner. 😘 If you didn't watch the video, start there before sullying the comment section with your brilliance.
I like that brittany is always smiley and always talking to people with a smile. I feel sad to see her cry😞 I am muslim raised in the middle east.. they’re just a little too strict with her.. she is trying.. look how she wears the pretty hijab and everything.. you can’t expect her to be like you want right away..
I would’ve bugged out the same way, being in a different country..the language barrier and being screamed at like that without my man coming to my defense. Brittany did no wrong.
I don’t know what she expected. Who in their right mind moves to a country without a lick of research or knowing any of the language. I don’t even know how you can truly fall in love with someone if you guys can’t even communicate
As a 22 year old Jordanian female, I swear Yazan is just marrying a girl from Jordan. His parents are obviously conservative, and, in our culture, when you marry a person, you really marry the family too. He and Brittany simply aren't compatible.
@Vincent Price I’m an arab female myself I can tell you arabs can be truly racist it’s not about faith If she was blonde blue eyed Russian girl they would brag about her
@Vincent Price as an Arab myself i can assure you that yes her skin color matters , they will not accept a dark skinned girl , cuz beauty standers there are a girl with fair skin , she looks nth like what they imagine their daughter in law would look like , she could be muslim but still would get rejected for being black , this is the ugly truth about these countries
@Vincent Price In Louisville we have plenty of North/Horn/Arabic Africans. And many Middle eastern people as well. The divide/hatrid between them and Arab or middle eastern people is serious. They may sound alike and buy the same bleaching creams😂😂 but they arent too fond of each other. Dont @ me for the joke. Im Jamaican on my grandfathers side, we buy plenty bleaching cream too.
Everyone's saying Brittany shouldn't have gone to Jordan. Like she just picked herself up and went there. YAZAN encouraged her to go. HE gave her false hopes. HE knew exactly what type of person she is. HE didn't explain everything properly before she left. She really wants her dad there. Yazan's mom's crazy for saying that her family is not important anymore. She honestly tried to fit in. If he was so concerned about his family, Religion and culture he would have married a Muslim woman from his birth land.
Asa Harvey not saying it’s the mans fault but when you lie to someone about having to assimilate to their culture and not having a choice in bringing your dad like she wanted because it would make her more comfortable and having literally a WHOLE family argue with you because you don’t want to assimilate to their culture is bullshit. She’s a free spirit and that guy and his family is literally trying everything to break her spirit and freedom. That’s not a relationship. So you can say that you’ve “heard it before” but until your in her position and getting yelled at for wearing makeup (because in one episode his mother got mad at her about wearing makeup) then maybe you should 🤫🤫🤫 you can’t expect to have a relationship and then expect the women to change everything about herself to fit your needs.
they need to respect each other period but it sucks because its just their views on him wanting to marry someone not involved in their religion... i wish it weren’t like that... 🤦🏾♀️ i just wish people cud love whom they want to love.
@@anndeeq3211 they’re terrible people are you kidding? She didn’t do a thing wrong and even changed her clothes! Plus, the dad literally threatened to kill him if he married her. Disgusting
@@Justaperson354 it is disgusting, but you are talking from our western cultural experiences. In their strict culture, Brittney was being disrespectful to their son. They do not like Brittany’s American ways and see her as a prostitute with her raunchy pictures on social media. That’s why he threatened to kill him because it’s embarrassing for his strict family.
@@syneshiarivers9999 I agree that she should’ve done research but bro she’s not nuts trust me, how would you react if your significant other’s parents told you that crap like cmon think about the circumstances
She’s such a drama queen. The reason she is trying to delay her father in coming is because she is still legally married and is trying to buy time for her divorce to finalise. She told Yazan and his parents that she is already divorced. She knows exactly what she is doing.
@@rosequeen7204 everyone speaks multiple languages in every country except the United states. Not that hard. Knowledge will take you a long way. Get some booboo
They are just not aware of the extent of the cultural difference it actually is. This girl really tried, but she is also standing up for herself and so is caught in a Catch 22
I am from Middle East and I gonna say I blame the guy. He knows his parents and yet brings a Western girl to get their approval. Like dude do you want to her to become Muslim and learn about your country’s cultural norms within few days?! Get yourself a girl from your country!
Ppl need to understand that the world has different views and morals so when one decides to branch into a totally different person's world, its YOUR MF JOB to know what you're getting yourself into.
It's your responsibility to learn, but isn't that part of getting to know that person? She could've read the entire Quran and still not have been ready for thay
As a Muslim myself I can honestly as the one who is to be her husband it is also Yazan's duty to explain all these things to her and know that there is no compulsion in Islam.By the way when the video hit 2:0 I started to lol.
Her meltdowns seem like mine, i think deep down she has some insecurity or anxiety issues, over apologizing and going straight to the worst thoughts. Also, Yazan does not stick up for her because he was raised by those toxic parents, so he thinks their behavior is normal or being obedient is better for survival better than sticking up. Also, I admire how they were communicating great after she calmed down, that they apologized to each other and tried figuring out a solution. I think that was a healthy conversation
Brittany this is culture shock, you will never be happy there, no friends or family for support, his parents will interfere in your marriage and when you have kids and trouble starts, and you want to leave and go back home, they won't let you and take your kids, think seriously, this is going to be difficult, very difficult, go back home, many fishes in the sea, this is a very difficult country to live in.
He is going to bait and switch, he held himself back like there is no tomorrow in the car scene. And she will be broken and end up a wrapped up belonging in a country she doesn't belong in. Girl, get out of there, he's after a green card or a submissive wife.
It is their culture. Anyone will retaliate if someone flips their shit WHILE you're driving. She wouldn't been put out of my car and walk if that was me
As a Black American woman particularly, she needs to call this quits. She is not prepared to be absorbed into an Arab-based culture, and they are not prepared to deal with her. Very bad combination.
They’re fine with calling her a whore for posting revealing pics online. I doubt they’d have a problem with admitting they didn’t like her Bc of her skin color, if that was true
Relationships are always gonna lead to that at some point, there's no such thing as a "perfect relationship" people who say that are just false advertising, a good relationship is working together to fix the struggles
being stressed and overwhelmed are normal human emotions, she cried and yelled because things were too much for her in a relationship, a partner is suppose to comfort the other one when going thru tough times
Playing between 2:37 and 2:48 on repeat, the she just cracked and his reaction is hillarious. Brittany: Starts to scream and go insane "how was I supposed to know that, I DON'T GET IT DON'T KNOW THAT" Yazan: "yeah yeah yeah" 😂😂😂
@@anastasijaaleksanderp.8841 Actually in Islam, your wife's happiness comes first. If the husband is constantly putting his parents before his wife, and the wife is unhappy, the husband is doing something very wrong. Now that's the religion. There will, unfortunately, be some Muslims out there who do the complete opposite, and is messed up. Again, that has nothing to do with the religion, or the Muslim nations in general, just those certain Muslims who make us look bad. And let's not forget, this sort of disrespect happens everywhere. Stop trying to make it seem like only "the muslim world" has this problem. It's not the entire Muslim world, it's not the religion, it's just how some people are unfortunately that they have no care for women. It's pretty ignorant to think that this problem only exists among Muslims, which it doesn't. There is a lot of abuse against women and discrimination in the Western world too.
I totally understand her. I went through the same thing when I went overseas for my husband. When u have a partner and they speak their own language, it's very distressing for the one who DOESN'T understand.
I feel so bad for her, I just had a baby 2 weeks ago and I had ALOT of emotional breakdowns during the pregnancy cause by my partner. They suck so bad 😭 it's hard to come down once you're up too!
Taj firstly she is a liar, secondly she is screaming to distract from the fact she is also to blame and is playing the victim, thirdly she is rude, and finally, she looks nothing like her insta so all in all she is fake as hell
The look on Yazan's face when she said she doesnt want to see his family again. Girl, walk away while you still can if yiu are not ready to give up everything for him.
A lot of people are saying she’s overreacting but I don’t think she is. A lot of times you can have a breakdown from overstimulation. I think she didn’t realize how serious it really was hence her rhetoric, “I DON’T KNOW! I DIDNT KNOW!”. She probably genuinely thought it wasn’t that serious for them to meet her dad so soon. It’s different cultures.
@@karenmcginley3529 from the cast crew to telling her to get up, to Yazan’s mother screaming at her in a language she doesn’t understand, to Yazan just standing there. She prob didn’t truly understand what was going on.
Girl get yourself together, next time you want to marry abroad, take the time to study the culture, have some grasp of the language, and always expect the unexpected.
I mean... I don't wanna be harsh to her but.. Doesn't she know a thing about the culture of the men she's there for?If I go in a foreign country the first thing I look Is "things to do and not do" ,that place is not America,not every country in the world is LIKE America, plus they have a very men centric culture there... And she clearly can get along with it...GO HOME.
oy my god "things to do and not do" lol so she cannot have her father in january for the wedding? as her mother in law yelled at ther: you're family is not important anymore you must forget them ...WTF i would have a meltdown too
*HONEY TAKE YOUR PRIVILEGE AND GO HOME* I’m not trying to be rude here. But literally everything about her. Is Oil to water in this culture. I don’t think she really and truly understands. How women are treated in this culture. And their rules. People need to stop chasing international tail. Without studying or putting at least a little bit effort. Stop winging it you will only fail
Facts. She's going to get herself and him in a lot of trouble. There, you have to follow their rules and if something goes south guess what babydoll, America will not get you extradited.
All women are definitely not treated like that in arab/middle eastern culture, like I get what you’re trying to say but as someone w middle eastern family none of them would be as strict as he is.
Amy The 4 regardless of where you were born you can’t stereotype all people from the Middle East, just because you had bad experiences doesn’t mean it’s always gonna be like that for everyone
Gosh darn it. We colored people really need to start making our own movies portraying white people as the "others" and how oppressive, backward and bad this "other" culture is, based on "true stories" so that our colored people can be warned.
@Lavendar Hijab The movie bothers you that much? Why? It’s a true story about one woman’s experience. Also, I don’t understand what you are saying. The movie isn’t about “colored” people. USA, who made the movie, doesn’t consider Iranians to be “colored.” Why are you talking about “white” and “colored”?
She is childish. I think she lashed out like this because she feels pressure from the secret she is keeping. Like damn, calm down, tell him, and face the consequences of your lie.
LifeWith Bri girl she’s MARRIED!!!!!!! She had gotten married years before but has been separated from her “ex”. Her current boyfriend and his family knows that she was previously married, but she assured them that she would take care of the divorce before coming to live in their country. Turns out she never did get divorced. She went to a divorce lawyer RIGHT BEFORE she was going to move to be with her current boyfriend. She has yet to tell him or his family that she is not divorced. So she’s keeping that secret, and that is why she is making such a big deal about not getting married to him immediately, or at lea set one of the main reasons.
