Love / How to sustain a Long Distance Relationship with a Polish girl [75]

yes i want to prove tornado wrong! at least you girls have given me a more positive outlook than he has! i have got to give it a go or i will be crying into my beer for some time to come...

I said this earlier but who cares? If you don't try, you'll never know and you'll always think "what if?" especially if you really are fond of this girl. Good luck :)

brown nosing is not my style as you may have guessed,

I hardly think giving a different opinion from you is "brown nosing". And I hardly think sausage was looking for a pat on the back. Some advice maybe...

, just because i'm giving what could be viewed by some as negative, your telling me i'm wrong :) funny that :)

Don't believe that I said you were wrong. I think you'll find that while I suggested he try (rather than walk away), there may also be the risk that it won't work out. You were suggesting he did even bother about it. Different altogether.

Windy, you'll see that your first reply doesn't really respond well to the topic title and first post.

He was asking 'how to sustain' and you just pounded him with reasons why he shouldn't. An opinion, yes sure.

ok if you really think wasting time is a good idea, then crack on :)

Unless you know sausage personally and the girl he's involved with and his situation and both their feelings on the situation then you cannot possibly say that either of them are "wasting time".

This was the original topic title. Nothing about it being realistic or being a fantasy.

Life / How much do you HATE POLISH PEOPLE and POLAND [1260]

Give me a job then lol, I will take the low paid ones

Good suggestion but would mean massive relocation for you and your family. That in itself would not be worth it.

I could reply to the last suggestion you had for me but then you would just accuse me of being negative so I won't bother.

If you mean about my example of taking up an apprenticeship then I am sincere in that, there are hundred of appenticeships available in plumbing (and many other trades) so if you have one hundred and one excuses for not taking this on, then maybe I would consider it negative. If it's about being skint and struggling for a few years, then I understand that. (I know about debt).

I never meant to stop you from posting with my "negativity" comments. I just think that people here have tried to be helpful and suggest things and you've always been quite negative in your responses.

I also can't be bothered with one nation being blamed for something like lack of jobs. Every couple of years it will be a different nation. The Polish people have always been prominent in UK life.

Love / How to sustain a Long Distance Relationship with a Polish girl [75]

they love a good 'romance' to read :)

Actually I prefer a good 'murder/mystery'.

it all seems like a dream so far... a whirldwind romance

It probably does feel like this because everything is so unsettled and nothing is confirmed. Wroclaw's advice of a holiday together soon is a good one and you should spend some of it discussing how the relationship is.

I say lose touch with reality. You only live once. And you survive in the end.

Exactly! Take a chance on the unknown, rather than remaining with the "safe"!

Some things we take seriously, which by your final comment, you are not.

Yeah, seems that way Wroclaw. That's what we get for being such a caring lot ;)

sorry to sound flippant. leaving her at the airport was very hard for me. i hope and pray that it doesn't turn out to be just a holiday romance.

Good luck sausage and maybe in the future you might let us know how you get on. All the best :)

The financial cost will not be too big and you will learn the truth of the situation

This is a good idea. You will physically see each other and maybe some kind of conclusion will be made about whether to carry on or stop the relationship.

When you do find that feeling, I think you should go for it even if there's no guarantee involved.

I do to. Risks have to be taken.

Love / How to sustain a Long Distance Relationship with a Polish girl [75]

you put effort into any relationship no matter what

Therefore - distance doesn't matter if you think it will work!

Some people don't find it so easy to fall in love. My advice to sausage is to wait and see what happens. Don't give up too quickly unless she wants it to end. If you're really going to move there, it's not going to be a long distance relationship forever. If it doesn't work out, at least you'll feel satisfied that you tried.

Good advice :)

to be man enough to say, hay look this is not a situation which is realistic.

Or be man enough to say that this is something you want to work at, yes it will be difficult but the end result may be wonderful. It's about the effort a person is willing to put into something rather than just walk away because the effort might be too much.

these measures purely string out the realisation of the inadequacy of the relationship. Its better to be quick and act fast than waste time and resources

Sometimes the best things come to those who wait...

not worth following this up when there are plenty of other potential relationships waiting out there that will be better placed geographically

Well, you don't know that. I don't think sausage is as into this girl as I first thought but you fall for the person you fall for, regardless of location.

Things such as e-mail, phone calls and sending pictures etc etc are elements that you can do without when starting a relationship.

Sometimes when location separates you, there's nothing else for it.

Now we only phone each other a couple of times a week

It depends on the content of the calls. You'll know yourself if they are just friendly chats or if there is more there.

Six months is a long time so perhaps you should arrange to see each other in that time, if possible - maybe another holiday?

Perhaps you could begin to exchange letters or emails with pictures of parts of each others lives you may have missed by being apart.

Life / How much do you HATE POLISH PEOPLE and POLAND [1260]

To say to a guy who is unemployed and desperate that he 'is just being negative'

I've re-read my words and I still stand by them. Phillybob1982 arrived here looking for a place to sound off because he was frustrated. Fair enough.

However, people have tried to suggest ways for him to get out of the rut he was in and he always had an excuse for why it wouldn't work. I suggested picking up a trade, he said he'd tried to go to college for motor mechanics and was refused on age. The college is at fault here.

But there are many other trades. I think Phillybob said he was 25 (if that's wrong, sorry) but lets take plumbing, major shortage of plumbers in the UK. If he fancied taking up this as a trade he should get in touch with plumbing companies in his area. Not sure how it works in England/Wales but can't be much different from up here. Yes he would be on a low income for the first couple of years but with a plumbing company behind him he would attend college while also working in the trade and after 3/4 years would have a reasonable trade behind him. This is just an example of course and I make it sound easy but the facts are - people have to work hard to get where they are.

And no, Polish plumbers coming over here to work are not stopping apprentices being taken on.

I believe its also being caused by people picking sides in this Poles Vs British working class debate.

It's not about taking sides, it about opinion. I am very aware that Poles are taking the lowest paid jobs and I repeat myself when I say I know from experience that I can't get British people to take these low paid jobs in my company and I believe that is the same throughout the country.

Love / Why are polish girls more approachable than north american girls [158]

Perhaps you are into little boys like your father. Generally men that like U.S. women over foreign women tend to be closet gays. You need to realize you are gay.

Hottest women are from Central/Eastern Europe and South America. Those that disagree are gay and like boys or fat cow women feminazi women, which seem to be into because you are emasculate.

Superb arguments... not...

You're negative about everything anyone is suggesting. It might be true that Polish people are taking on low paid jobs but it's not true that they are preventing you from going to college, learning or getting some kind of job.

If you are going to be continually negative about things I don't think there is anything anyone can do for you. Sorry.

Only you can help yourself. Others will never do it for you...

I agree that this is false advertising but it really does happen

I know that but it's called "false advertising".

motor mechanics course, they said at 25 i was too old.

Not sure which college this was but that's not correct. There are only a handful of courses available that can be refused on the basis of age being too old. Motor mechanic and other courses in trades generally take people on up to a certain age and 25 isn't it.

Food / Krokiety Recipe [16]

Thanks Z but I can't get this to open. I tried going through epicurious and searching for krokiety but it said it couldn't find anything :(

I will give the cooking a bash next week. If the results are reasonable I'll take a pic and post it. :)

It typical that I typed "Krokiety Recipe" into Google and this was the first result it came up with... :)

Why is it so difficult to find? If I wanted a thousand different recipes for Pierogi I'd have them because they are everywhere.

This is very true. Not just evening classes but also open learning. A great deal more colleges are taking this on.

But now when you enquire about the jobs that are advertised "a few in English, not many though lol" the reply is usually "no work at the minute mate" and yet, they still continue to advertise.

Then this would be a case of false advertising. They really aren't allowed to do that. Neither are they allowed to say "Polish People only" so I guess that's how they get around that.

Count me as an example.

Recently I had something that was like minced beef (maybe another meat though) with mushrooms, saurkraut and maybe other stuff, wrapped in something pancake-like...any idea's what that was?
