Nomadic People

Nomads are any community of people who have no settled home. They wander from place to place seeking fresh sources of food for themselves or fresh pastures for their animals. Some nomadic groups move among settled people selling small items they have made, doing specialized mending, entertaining or begging. Nomads keep themselves separate from other people and usually speak their own language among themselves even though they also know the languages of the people around them.

Why do people ignore you?

It depends on what guy is ignoring you. If you like someone a lot and they ignore you then they either don't feel the same about you or could be shy. Men think that women are a mystery, but in truth, both sexes are a real mystery and I doubt we'll ever be able to figure each other out. Men think different from women and while women can sometimes thinking about the romance of a relationship that could happen or is happening, often men can be 1,000 miles away and thinking about what the score is going to be on the next football game.

If there is more than one guy ignoring you, does there have to be a reason? It would be a whole lot better if you could answer my post and give me a bit more information so I could give you more constructive advice.

Why were the bedouins such excellent guides?

Since Bedouins are nomads and often have to retrace their steps to find water and plentiful vegetation for their herds. Those Bedouin who cannot figure out where they are and guide well will be those Bedouin who will die in the wilderness from dehydration and thirst. As a result, by the time any foreigner meets a Bedouin, the population has already been winnowed to the point where the foreigner only sees excellent Bedouin guides and trackers.
