Love / help dating polish lady [78]

well I cant be bothered to read your whole post as its way too long and Im at work.. but my advice is that if you work at Asda you should be in a good place to meet other women, just check out their baskets to see if they are single or not.. or start a singles night at your supermarket. Leave the girl with the bf alone, she will bring you heartache.

Travel / Warsaw, Poland included in Lonely Planet's Top Ten Cities for 2009 [26]

this list is surely a joke. It includes some of the most polluted and dangerous cities in the world. There are none here that I wouldnt visit, but most wouldnt be top of my list. However, each to their own and as the list is updated annually they must be running out of new places to include. Ive been to Bombay (although its now called Mumbai) but not Shanghai.

Love / How to impress a Polish girl [29]

I'm guessing her parents live in Poland? If so, I would be surprised if they are totally cool with her sexuality, even if accepting of the situation, so it might be hard for you to win them over. For now, I would concentrate on her whilst taking an interest in her culture and asking about her family and upbringing. Apart from that, cook her a nice meal and do something romantic. Learn some nice words in Polish to say to her.

UK, Ireland / All That Manners Business [I'm Polish, moved to UK as an au pair.] [87]

in my opinion it is harder for Polish mothers to accept foreigners hooking up with their offspring than the other way round. I can only speak from my own experience but they seem much more judgemental than English parents. I also think that no matter how much you dislike her you should make an effort to please her for the sake of your partner. If you are not even making an effort to ask her how she is, then she probably thinks you are rude. Having said that, she has already formed her opinion of you and thats unlikely to change.

perhaps you could try the Channel 4 website? the programme is called Cutting Edge.

UK, Ireland / Bobski the Builder ... Channel 4, 9pm Thursday16th Oct 2008 [20]

personally i dont believe that jarek didnt make any money at all.. they failed to mention the money that the TV company must have paid him to make the programme. I agree the English firm was terrible and their attitude was appalling. One thing i was wondering is why Jarek had to travel to Poland to find his team, when there are hundreds of Polish builders in the UK.. it seemed a bit odd and just trying to stereotype the Polish.. overall the Poles did come out of it looking best though and although there were problems their job was better quality, cheaper price and a lot quicker. He should have insisted on getting more money upfront.

Travel / My trip to Poland - I hated Katowice, loved Krakow, and adored Bielsko [59]

Who are you talking to? This is your thread so you dont need to justify your comments to anyone. Sorry if we got carried away with our Midland talk, it was just a bit of fun, didnt mean to trash your thread. Please carry on.

Travel / My trip to Poland - I hated Katowice, loved Krakow, and adored Bielsko [59]


apparantly it looked too much like Birmingham :)

Travel / My trip to Poland - I hated Katowice, loved Krakow, and adored Bielsko [59]


Im certainly not blind to the bad point of the Midlands..I havent even lived there for 20 years and Ive still got the accent, which believe me is a social hindrance! I was jkg about Spaghetti junction.

I love this comparison of Midland towns to Polish ones though. Perhaps we can start a comparison of other towns in Poland to ones in other countries... maybe even do a bit of twinning.

Love / My polish girlfriend will not leave [47]

vegetables and dips.. certainly hope not! I am racking my brains trying to think why someone would have certain personal habits but then call his gf crude for picking up on them, doesnt that make him crude too??? Anyway, best not to ponder these things.. time to get out of the office me thinks.

Love / My polish girlfriend will not leave [47]

sorry I was intrigued.........

Love / My polish girlfriend will not leave [47]

Have you been supporting or helping her financially with rent/bills or anything else? If so, then thats probably why she wont leave. Maybe she does love you in her own way or maybe she is just using you til something better comes along. Only you know the answer, which is there if you search your heart. Talk to her and sort it out. If you decide there is no hope and you really want her out of your life then you need to be extremely firm with her, even if that includes bagging up her clothes for her. I would give her one month or move out yourself if thats an option..or if you are renting just tell her you have given notice on the flat.

Please do elaborate on what the crudeness related to your personal habits is?

Love / Polish women are known for their beauty, but men are so ugly (most of).. [250]


Beautiful response :0) Could the same could be said for all the Polish women who hook up with foreigners too... that they are wanting to slum it?

Personally sometimes I feel likewhen my partners friends (living in the UK) find out that he is with an Enlgish woman they are intrigued and want to know everything about how we met and more about intercultural relationships .. the men want to know things which I wont even go into. They are always surprised when they actually see me that I am not some gargoyle, but actually (if I do say it myself) a damn sexy woman. It is always interesting to be considered an exotic creature in ones own country.

Travel / My trip to Poland - I hated Katowice, loved Krakow, and adored Bielsko [59]


Spaghetti Junction anyone?


are you sure? There is a reason for the phrase 'being sent to Coventry'. Personally I think since the regeneration of Brindley Place and the town centre B'ham is a far nicer place than Cov. and I wouldnt live in the latter if you paid me. Mind you if you like the nightlife in Broad St. other than for a stag or hen night then you obviously have questionable taste anyway. Sorry this is nothing to do with Poland, but I feel the urge to defend my homeland.

Love / Polish women are known for their beauty, but men are so ugly (most of).. [250]

OK I know this is a pointless debate, but if all Polish women are so hot, why do some of their menfolk prefer foreigners? I have my own conclusions, but not sure I can post them here.

UK, Ireland / Bobski the Builder ... Channel 4, 9pm Thursday16th Oct 2008 [20]

thanks for that info. Looks interesting, I will definitely watch it along with the Polish builder boyfriend who I'm sure will have plenty to say on the topic.

Love / Need advice re: Polish man. What can I do to make him interested? [50]

Im assuming you are a Catholic? If so then its perfectly normal for you to go to Church, but if not then he will think you are stalking him at church. Since Im assuming the former I think just keep going to church and show him you are a good catholic girl.. maybe go for a coffee after.. God can maybe show you the path to true love.

another nugget of info from southern - those with the gypsy mentality are normally begging on the streets in london, but they tend not to be Polish. Anyway how about the girls from your own country?.. and yes I do know where that is :)

...and I dont fancy Brad Pitt either.. too girly looking and bad skin.

I did! :)

This thread seems to be getting into a general debate about the sex industry, so heres my tuppence worth. Sex sells, simple as.. whatever you might think about it, there is always going to be porn, chatlines, prostitution etc. etc.... cos there is always a demand (i.e.) So unless we wipe out 50% of the population (i.e) men, lets just accept it. Personally I think there is a need for the industry as it provides an outlet, which if was removed could well lead to more sexual related violence. Of course there are some who are exploited and driven into it through poverty, but there are plenty of women who also make this their career choice. The point I was trying to make earlier, was that although I am sure this was upsetting for the individual involved, not all women are innocent and naive and plenty could easily deal with the situation.. as far as I can see from the post, there was no violence or physical contact here, just a request for some information and an offer of sex for money, which Im not saying is a good thing, but not exactly devastating either. She should have got his phone number and details and reported him to the police if he was really harassing her.

Love / Need advice re: Polish man. What can I do to make him interested? [50]

it sounds like he knows you are interested if you are making the effort to speak to him in Polish. At his age is it highly likely he is married, but he could be divorced or separated.. I guess you are not going to know unless you ask him.

I think you are right, theres never enough parking in the street so it was most likely one of the neighbours. The irony is that the car we have now is twice as big so takes up more parking space. And no, we werent trying to avoid paying, it was still within the 6 month period and we always intended to register it.. unlike some of you dodgy folk on here.. Right, must go buy my TV licence!
