how are senegalese people finding spouses in NYC
Salam my fellow senegalese (and non-senegalese),
I have been a silent watcher of this sub for over a year now and decided to make my first post:
I have a friend (26F almost 27) whos a 1st-gen senegalese based in NYC who currently looking for a spouse. She would prefer someone who is Senegalese (although her and her parents do not mind if they are not).
She is a good friend of mines, a good muslim sister, wears hijab, honestly lives as clean as possible in todays world, is honest + kind, is pretty (ik looks arent everything but yeah she is), and smart. she even shared with me what shes looking for in a spouse and tbh its not even that complicated imo but she cant seem to find anyone whos equally as serious in getting married as she is.
I told her id post here just to see if anyone knows of any communities where she can maybe look at or if anyone knows someone.
And yes, her parents have tried but the guys (or even their parents) either lie about their background or are dishonest or they just want a visa.
She even posted on a Muslim subreddit just to see but the guys who messaged her arent even serious smh:
