during a day out (girly gathering) we discussed how the greeting here in kuwait is not fixed, as if every person has his/her own protocol.
Women :: you never know what will strike you @!@ weather she will shake hands, kiss you on one cheek or both & you never know the number of kisses on each cheek also if you at least do know how to go along you will be facing the risk of turn into a tenis fan, turn ur head right & left to catch up with her! WHY IS THAT? why couldnt there be a general known code/protocol for women greeting women?
As a simple solution "at least for our group" we decided to make our own unbreackable protocol : say ur greeting word or what ever question like "eshlonch!" - hand shake - a single kiss on each cheek & thats it.

Eshlounich?
Hand Shake
& a kiss
is too much
what do you think of
hi + 1 kiss
well also my sister suggested a hi only but that would be too cold for our culture, people here prefer warm welcomes that involve a long greeting process to feel that u really like them, so skipping it to two steps is too short i think
Usually, I kiss women once on the right cheek and then squeeze the life out of her kinda hug.. hehehe..
Missing you so much.. :*
A hi, a hand shake, and a kiss or two sound good to me, whether you're greeting a friend or a friendette
ChillGirl, shlounich? :**
gowa/hala/ahlain/hi & 1 kiss on the cheek or 2 on each etha men zeman mo shayfat'ha, "shloonech/shakhbarech" comes after the kiss...
lol so very true... I NEVER know what to expect!
Personally I prefer a hug and/or one kiss on one cheeck...
