Love / Bad experience with a Polish Guy who... had another girlfriend :( [49]

absolute gentlemen (and drop-dead-gorgeous too!)

Agreed on both counts :)

I've only dated one thus far - he was 1st generation in US from Chicago - he was sweet, but I was second priority behind the Bears and whatever hockey was on TV. Don't know that reflects the average Polish guy though.

I'd say that since I'm in the dating market again, a Polish guy has a better chance than most others as I'm pretty tired of American men in general. I think even if some are rats they are quicker to show it.

Love / Bad experience with a Polish Guy who... had another girlfriend :( [49]

Oh the swearing - I like the forums.

I'm not exactly a prude - and frequently use the base American version of the word to emphasize a strong point when needed. Then again, I work in an office of all men - so that's bound to be a part of the language. I try to refrain from using it in general - so since I'm trying to learn a new language I'll save it for strongly needed cases :)

The first post is good, but it rapidly declines afterwards!

One of my friends had previously forwarded that same info in the first post from another website :-) After reading that I became a bit apprehensive using it at all - although for the guy that's the topic of this whole thread - I'd say any would work ;-)

A a : u sound in fun

Thank you for written this out - i'll start learning with how to say the letters right :-) It may help me to not completely kill the proper pronunciations

Love / How to get to know a polish guy better? [102]

but now I'm doubting a lot !! Maybe I shouldn't have written this mail, and just tried to meet him again....

liii - you did the right thing - you've been focused on this for a good while and if he is really interested that email isn't going to be a problem. Otherwise, you'll know and the initial disappointment will wear off and you'll move on to something that is possible.

I feel your pain, I'm in a similar situation, only I don't get to see my Polish guy. We only IM and phone every now and then about business.

Genealogy / Anyone Else 1/2 Polish??? [58]

Best yet - figured out the family tree - Polish Jews that put Russian as their nationality. So I have just found out that I am not 1/2 Russian, but 1/2 Polish. That makes more sense because my family is friendlier and happier than most of the Russians I've ever met.

The rest genetically, 1/4 black, 1/8 Irish, 1/8 Cherokee Indian

AKA - Heinz 57, mutt :-)

Genealogy / Tracking family tree - anyone know any Olian family in Poland? Marek Skawica? [5]

Hi - I have been researching my family tree and found that my Grandfather is 100% Polish. So now I know I'm at least 1/4 Polish.

But...on my grandmother's family I'm hitting a dead-end. I can't seem to track down where they are from. It seems many Polish Jews put Russian on their immigration paperwork - does anyone know why?

Anyway - I'm looking for anyone who may have Olian or Blocher in their family heritage.
All I do know is that according to verbal story many of our family were taken to concentration camps. This seems to make all this geneology a bit harder.

Life / Date of daylight savings time change? [10]

Yes seems weird but it's usually a week different between Europe and North America.

Bush changed the rules of the game for some silly reason. Something about conserving energy or whatever. Just to confuse us and make the US contrary to the rest of the world's time schedule.
