Genealogy / Help regarding finding Polish Birth Records [18]

if she ran, theres
always a reason.

What the hell is your problem? Yeah maybe she ran because she was a scumbag...it doesn't mean this guy did something to her like you are insinuating. It might be his fault and might not. Why are you treating him like crap?

Love / Shall we go back to interracial relationships for a bit? [50]

Carole...I know it doesn't make dealing with the idiots any easier but if you love him and are happy with him inside of your personal world then SCREW everyone else.

NOBODY has the right to judge or tell you who you can love.

Racism is all over the world but is is more prevalent in Poland and I think you know that.

Just remember what is important (meaning loving and caring for each other) and try your best to avoid/ignore the simple minded morons who would give you grief.

Don't mind Greg he thinks he knows everything and apparently that he speaks for everyone.

Someone will help you eventually. But I can tell you this...even if you find the right office the chances of you getting the info without going there yourself are slim...very slim.

Life / Polish Driving Licence. [314]

It's easy....go take the driving course....take the exams (3 or 4 times) and get the license.

All we need are people who can't freaking drive buying licenses and driving anyway.

Love / I got married to a Polish wife; Polish family advice needed [45]

Do you love your wife? If you do and her parents truly need help you should help them. Sure is could be nonsense...but it could also be people in a bad way. your wife could have been embarrassed to tell you.(ah just read your later post where you said that...)

This is not about Polish, English or whatever...this is about the family of who is supposed to be the most important person in your life. I am shocked you have to ask if you SHOULD help. Re-education at 60 ain't gonna happen. Marriage is a PARTNERSHIP and at some point you WILL need something from your wife...then what if you don't help her. Plus unless things are very tight for you...50 pounds a month max is not that much.

It is easy to judge people when you are healthy and when things are ok for you. When you are older and have problems I promise you will look at the world differently. When I was young and knew everything I had the attitude that "people should just get off their ass and work!" but as I have matured and seen life all over the world I know now it is not that simple.

You have the right to help or not help...but you do not have the right to judge them nor do any of the know it all posters here.

Those of you that say cut them off...when you need help in the future you should not accept any help from anyone ever...that would only the fair right?

Gunners you seem like a good guy or you would not even be torn over this...you'd just say screw it. I think you will do the right thing and help some old folks out.

Life / Polish Driving Licence. [314]

If someone is selling driving licenses they are a crook.

I guess this is why it is so hard to get anything done the right way in this part of the world since so many people are messing up the system with this nonsense.

Life / Polish Driving Licence. [314]

You can't. You would have to take the Polish training and tests. Your US license along with an international driver's certificate (from the AAA for 10 usd per year) will allow you to drive for a short time (3-6 months depending on who you speak to)

Also...people keep talking about an EU driver's license. There is no such thing as an "EU driver's license". Each country has it's own licenses.

Anyone who 'buys' a license is an idiot waiting to get caught...do you really think you can trust a criminal to give you a REAL license? what are you gonna do when you go to jail for fraud...ask for a refund?

Life / Health Insurance for Polish people [6]

First of all D-rek is WRONG.

There are private companies in Poland that will insure any person from any country.

interpolska
warta
signal iduna

The problem is they all are missing 'something' to make any one of them a good package.
One might not cover surgery...one might not cover medicines...etc etc. The cost for a woman was something like 3200zl per year minimum with men being about half as much.

Life / Why is Poland so slow; it takes a lot of time to arrange anything here [53]

In my experience that 'pee satined' person is the only one that ever HAS the right change and they count it out groszy by groszy for about 5 minutes to buy their one Mocne Piwo.

But honestly that doesn't bother me as I would hate to be in such a position in life. I say if a beer makes their day a little better than great.

Travel / Leaving and entering Poland with a temporary residency permit. [16]

WOW again you create things...I never scratched around any schools. Any teaching I did/do was private as I was bored when I am on a break from work (you see not everyone works 8-5 in an office)

Mom and Dad are dead...thanks...and didn't leave much at all due to extensive medical expenses that the whole family contributed to. Don't you feel like a big guy now. In fact dragging my parents into it is the first thing you have said on this website that I actually was bothered by...what a great guy you must be...probably kick puppies too.

At least I know I really am dealing with as much of a piece of trash as I imagined.

Travel / Leaving and entering Poland with a temporary residency permit. [16]

no loss to us.the sooner the better...

Actually you (or the Polish economy) will lose the money I spend in Poland that I earn from outside of Poland. So technically you are WRONG...again.

Again I will say...if all expats left Poland and all foreign investment left you would not be so smug then as you would be about as prosperous as mud.

Love / TO GO OR NOT TO GO (to visit my Polish boy-friend in Poland) [30]

What the hell is wrong with you women? If a guy really loves you it won't take an internet message board to let you know. YOU will know.

Do yourselves a favor and keep moving until you find someone that doesn't make you all freaked out.

Relying on total strangers for validation is a major set up for failure.

Language / Share Perfective and Imperfective Polish verbs [105]

Clearly he meant on an international scale....of course when dealing with Poles it is a very useful language :)

If you spoke English, French, Spanish, Chinese and Arabic there are not many places you could not communicate....Polish has a limited value unless you are dealing with Poland or Chicago.

Love / "Let's leave beautiful women for men with poor sexual imagination" [150]

It has nothing to do with her being Polish. You met him the night they split up. He was on the rebound. That never works.

Anyone who marries without spending at living a year with someone is bound to be disappointed. You cannot know someone in 3 dates.

An women all over the world act like her...it is not a cultural thing.

Life / Places to meet Canadians or Americans in warsaw? Online Groups? [19]

Hahaha....

You keep saying things that are not true. Do you think if you repeat them over and over it makes them so?

Again slowly for you Harold...I have a job (you have no idea how interesting it is and I am positive it pays more than yours as it is not based in PL..and no harold is isnt teaching full time) and manage just fine. You confuse LIKING a place with managing it. The whole permit ordeal is much more complicated for non EU members and that is your only perspective. I got that sorted and legally without succumbing to the mafia nonsense. I bet you would have just walked in and TAKEN a permit since you are such a stud.

You write a back page column for some nonsense excuse for journalism and call others pathetic? try again when you do more than blather on about unimportant drivel in order to get your attention fix.

You are so easily manipulated here it is almost boring...Bad A$$ Harry gonna put me in my place....
