Life / Coming back to Poland after 5 years in UK [14]



Now you understand that money is not everything.


There are plenty of places in poland, especially the big cities, to go out for drinks and some fun. Doesn't krakow have something like 10,000 pubs??


Moving from country to country or even from city to city can create quite a bit of stress. You just need to go out and find some friends - and a man. Being around friends will make your transitition to your new life much smoother.

I'm sure you felt out of place when you first went to the UK but eventually you made friends, found work and were able to adapt to you new life. Going back to poland is no different.

Life / Dog's life or what to expect when living in Poland with a dog [22]


LOL few people in poland understand this concept. The worst is when all the snow starts melting! All the poop that accumulated over the winter becomes uncovered as the mercury rises, thaws, runs like water over the grass/sidewalks, and the smell of sh!t fills the air. I don't understand why people don't carry a little bag with them when taking their k9's for a walk.

Life / POLES' ENGLISH COMPARED TO EUROPE AS A WHOLE? [39]

I agree with some of the above posters - poles do have poor english language skills. I'm not sure if this has anything to do with the polish language being in a different language group (than english) or whether isolation/popularity of russian/german during the commie years had any affect on this. It is quite amazing how well scandinavians speak english though.

Mustaches should be banned.

Love / POLISH FEMALES PREFERABLE TO MALES? [12]


Generally speaking, women go for well established men not the other way around. This isn't just limited to poles though - females are the more "choosy" sex, and in this century $ is a desirable trait.

Haven't we already covered this topic? Deja vu anyone?

Love / Little advice please - another guy called my Polish fiance beautiful. [47]

Why am i getting the feeling that warham will return to pf.com sometime in the future and create a thread entitled "polish women are *****", "don't marry polish women", "polish women are golddiggers" etc. ??

Life / Are Polish People Hypochondriacs? [50]


I admit that I have "PolishPhysicianPhobia" simply because they hand out medicine like candy. Poland consumes more antibiotics than any other nation in europe! I think it's ridiculous that a doctor prescribes antibiotics to a patient who has only been sick for 1 day (common cold/flu).

A deadly combination of poor pay for docs and greedy pharmaceutical companies are to blame IMO.


Check ups are a good idea as you age. In canada/usa doctors and governments constantly encourage people to get check for prostate/breast cancers, colon cancer etc.

News / BOOZE & CAR TAX TO AID POLAND'S NEEDY? [23]


I think you're missing a zero after the 3 > $430 mil

I think it's a good idea. People will soon forget about the extra 1/2 zl. It's like with cigarettes in the usa - they tax the bejesus out of them yet people continue to purhcase cigs.

As for the school lunch program, do any other european countries have this? Does it work well? Decent food?

Life / What to wear for winter in Poland [51]


But it was only 1-2 degrees celsius yesterday! How will you dress when the temp drops to 15-20 below zero? :)

News / POLES the BLACKS of EUROPE? [104]


I'll give you an answer, adrian. Our british friends on here don't like these racial topics.

I don't see any connection. You see unemployment, crime and school drop out rates are quite high in the neighbourhoods your talking about. Poles however, tend to work even if it means that have to perform menial jobs. The vast majority of poles that leave poland for w. european countries do so in order to work not go on welfare/unemployment (though i'm sure a small minority do this - there are bad lemons in all countries after all). The situation in the US/canada is similar. Take chicago for example, which has a huge polish population. These poles work/go to school and i've yet to hear about problems regarding widespread crime/unemployment among the polish population.

Use the following pictures as a guide. It gets quite cold in arctic poland in feburary: ^ This last picture was actually taken in downtown Warsaw last year at the end of January.

News / What did Poland get out of the wars and struggles for others? [1108]

I agree with you, kraut. It's actually the germans that are ubersaints, especially during 1939-1945 when they tried to exterminate the jews and work others to death (ask your father/grandfather, they'll fill you in with some details).

News / Captain of hijacked tanker is Polish [71]

These transport vessels will have to arm themselves and hire some kind of security personnel. Hijacking is no longer confined to the somali coast as this vessel was captured off the tanzanian coast. The eastern coast of africa is far too long for anyone to patrol. I'm sure i would be more economical to arm individual ships rather than have navy ships chasing down these buggers.

Love / Such a mess with my polish boy...:( [30]


Ok, Polish doctors scare the bejesus out of me! Their solution to any and every problem is pills. In the case of depression pills can be helpfull, but treatment for depression is most affective by going to a psychologist for some "talk therapy" while taking anti-depressents. I got all this from my buddies old man who is a psychologist.

Life / Uniformed people in Poland - explanation needed. [17]


I disagree. I absolutely love talking to those hotties in military uniform at the airport and can always get them to laugh. Maybe it's a female vs female issue in your case... :)

Love / 3 Polish Men.. it isnt just me right???? [25]

hmm maybe you are my ex...

no way!! haha

Love / 3 Polish Men.. it isnt just me right???? [25]


ummmmm FALSE!! I once dated a black girl. Well half black, but still. Kinda like Obama, but female of course. I'm polish, living in canada (near toronto). I can be there in ~ 8 hours. What do you say?? :)

This is by far the worst, for me at least. Do they know what customer service means?

Love / Dating a Polish guy for the first time ever in my life [22]



Ok.




What?? After so many polish female golddigger stories on this forum, could this possibly be the first male golddigger on PF??? I ... ummm ... am ... speechless and totally unprepared.


What's wrong with different guys? Listen, if you're happy with him stay put and see what happens. Maybe eventually he'll learn english and find a better paying job. Statistically speaking, a high percentage of relationships where the female is wealthier than the male end in failure, but maybe you'll find happiness.

News / Another Case Of Intentional HIV Infections in Poland [73]

I wonder what they will charge him with. What's the penalty in Poland? Here in Canada there is a case where an african man with HIV is being charged with 1st degree murder (2 women actually died) for not disclosing his medical condition before having sex with many women.

News / Why is Tusk still Polish PM? [67]

While shopping at the local polish deli today, i heard an old women call tusk a niemiec (german). Do poles actually think of kaszubs are being germans? Or did this old lady forget to take her pills?

She would definately open poles up to sex.


It's all about experience. I bet that women is still sexually active.

I'm surprised more people haven't been charged for defaming the kaczka.

Love / Understanding Polish Man [41]

gtd may be right, *OR* he may have started to like you more than a friend recently but knows that you don't feel the same. The arguement is just frustration of wanting something he can't have.

Life / PAYING TO TAKE A PISS IN POLAND, it's BIZARRE [77]

The best is when the toilet lady asks you "number 1 or number 2?" Sometimes it costs more to **** (50 groszy or so more) and you have to tell her or she won't give you any toilet paper!!

Anyways, it doesn't make sense why they have old babcias charging to use the bathrooms!?! Proceeds from sales should be used to keep the bathrooms clean. Heck, raise the price of everything a few pennies to help cover the costs of cleaning. I think it's a ridiculous and extremely weird/bizzare custom. They should think about the tourists.
