Looking for open minded girls to hangout with in Riyadh
Hey everyone!
I just got to riaydh a few days ago. and I'm looking for some new open minded friends to hangout with here. I realized everything here is split into women only or families and men only. And so it hit me I can't survive living here without making some new girlfriends. But, I'm looking for the open minded internationals like myself or saudi's who've lived abroad because I get the feeling I won't get along with the girls starring at me like I killed someone when I take off my scarf at the mall. I'm also looking for a fitness club companion and I hope I can find someone who's new too and is looking to join a fitness club.
Ps. I got access to the Diplomatic Quarter, so if you do too, please let me know! I loved this place, but I don't feel like exploring it alone.
Hoping to hear from all of you soon!

Hey Aya, thanks for sharing your thoughts with us and let's hope you find your "open minded" friends in near future. . All the best.

Hope you all the best Aya
Lol agreed. I'm curious what exactly you'd fill in the blank though
some weekends i usually dropped by DQ for breakfast at Kudu at Al kindi plaza, after driving around Wadi Hanifa in the early morning. i think it's not your kind of place for breakfast. lol
welcome to saudi arabia.
I actually considered planning a breakfast outing at Starbucks there. it looked really nice.. but since I don't know anyone here yet.. I don't know who to go with T_T First world (Saudi Arabia) problems.
is there a starbucks in DQ?
DQ is far tho (from mine)..but it's one of the best places to jog too ...then hang out at starbucksÂ
Welcome to riyadh ..hope u 'll enjoy
Hi Aya, where are you from...what made you decide to come to Saudi? I have been here for 5 yrs....and I totally get what mean you about getting some open minded friends..I am from Australia btw.
HI Open minded,
Welcome to land of sun, sand a oil...
I am from USA and move here few months ago. I am a consultant for a Saudi Hospitality group. If you are interested feel free to contact me and we will exchange numbers later.
Thanks,

I've been here for 10 years now, and do have the knowledge to show you how beauty Riyadh is???!!
all what i can do to join you in having shesha or coffee somewhere in compound or so...

Just a gentle reminder guys that the title of this topic thread is "Looking for open minded girls to hangout with in Riyadh.
Some of the members responding here sure don't look like girls.

Hi Aya,
Good to know that you are making the effort to get open minded girls to gether.
I would like to be a part, but DQ is far for me
I haven`t seen it yet.
In case something get fixed around Kingdom tower, i would like to come.
Good luck in that ....
Hi Aya,
I also just moved here recently, and the one thing I was thinking about is finding my group of girlfriends like back home. Your post was a few months ago but do let me know if you still want to chill
Hey B,
That post was back when I knew no one here. I know exactly how you feel! But now I know a lot of people and riyadh has become so much better. I'm always up for meeting new friends tho, this is kind of how you survive here after all. So, leave me a message and we can chill sometime for sure.
hmmmmmm quite sad..... are there not other websites for this kind of thing

hi Bee,
what about meeting on a coffee on one of those days?
mail me: f.v.i.saller@gmail.com
I am also new, and looking for a female friend..
Didn't think you had to so anything to get access to the DQ. Usually I just drive up and wave at the guy.
The guards do get a little annoyed if you use the green lane without a stripey iqama or plates, but it's worth a laugh.
Isn't it curious just how many MALE members always seem to find it necessary to post replies on topic threads that are looking strictly for FEMALE friendships?Â
It's no wonder that our female members are complaining all the time, reporting so many abuses and that we've even found it necessary to implant security measures that are going to weed these individuals out.
Gentlemen, when you see a topic thread that clearly indicates it should be "GIRLS ONLY", maybe it would be a good idea to respect that and NOT post. Just a thought!

Mike,
Perhaps you should go back and re-read reply #29, it seems you didn't understand it the first time around, this is a "GIRLS ONLY" topic thread.

I'm up for that!! I am so bored!
Hi Siham 19
Let's get together
Ok girls lets do this
How about a meet up in a compound in Al mursalat or Starbucks in DQ? Whichever is easier for most I think??
Would you like a get together at our compound in Al mursalat or meet in DQ or another place ?
We could do lunch coffee dinner movie night (at our place) or just sit by the pool with drinks..... I don't know whatever lets do it!
Email me a time and place preferred if anyone's interested in getting together.

Please use the PM system to exchange numbers. It is not safe to post any personal contact details on an open forum.
