Life / POLISH YOUTH compared to the youth in other Western countries? [57]

They aren't as disruptive in class as the average UK kids - and I'm talking about normal schools, not language schools.

Do you have any figures or statistics to back up your claim? I'm willing to bet there's not much of a difference.

This will inevitably change as the govt follows its plan of dumbing down education in the international "race to the bottom".

In that case, I've won the race!

;P

Oh no! Why did this have to rhyme?

Love / All the good Polish men for dating are taken? [111]

your best bet is the curious maverick who has refused to join the masses, but there really aren't many of them. they tend to be v much worth it, though. rare gems. but i am biased.

I guess that makes you a maverick aswell then. Some mavericks catch a little too much abuse for their curiousity though, so they might carry a lot more scars than the people who have chosen the way of the least resistance. You might want have a lot of patience with some of these rare gems. (Most don't have the stomach for it though!)

it was just about guys in general and point that most of good ones are taken

Define good ones. You have bad looking guys who are infact good, and you have decent looking guys who are bad. You have good guys who did something wrong, and you have bad guys who did something right. Your question shouldn't be why all the good ones are taken, but your question should be who is good for you..

So are the morons :D

Same goes for the girls.

did i wake up your spirit, guys? ;)

Love / All the good Polish men for dating are taken? [111]

i dont need to mke changes to myself lol as im perfect lol am not really but all the nice men in the world end up with ******* who treat them like **** all the time

I wouldn't ever expect anyone to change for me. I wouldn't even want that. We are who we are and that makes us unique. (Which is interesting!)

but thanks for the reply and thanks for saying my name is nice i dont like it but tis ok

You really don't understand me, do you? Here;

why is it all good men are taken

How is that not arrogant? Do you know every single guy on the planet? Does every single guy suck? You're right, you should find a nice married man, cheat with him and save him from that witch he's with so you can feel better about yourself, right?

but women are not arrogant it is just that some of them think they are better than everyone else when they arerent and pisses me off because guys label us all with same brush xx

I don't tar everyone with the same brush, I just gave you a dumb reply, because I obviously heard that cliché of yours one time too many, and I don't think you can blame everything on the guys like that everytime.

and i am not like that in any way i am who and like the way i am

You should. Just don't expect everyone else to like everything you say, because I also happen to like the way I am. Which is exactly why I've said what I've said, but I guess it didn't quite come across that way. (Not sorry either, because I obviously wasn't talking about you there!)

History / The Untold Battle of Britain [205]

its about definition and right word to describe an act.

Does a definition change the act itself?

its not about emotion but about using the right expressions.

War is always about emotion. You need to make two or more groups of people angry enough to kill eachother.

If you would said that killing human being regardless of circumstances except in defence of your live or the live of your family,is not right - I would agree.

I call that murder. (Which is a definition you should be able to understand, according to your own logic.)

However jumping on the tree doesn't make a monkey out of human - analogously your claims and emotion doesn't make it true.

Have you ever seen how a woman got cut open alive, and how they killed her baby infront of her eyes while she was bleeding to death? But you're right ofcourse, emotion doesn't make any of that true, or even a murder.

Murder is murder, nothing less and nothing more ergo war cannot be murder although can encompass a many murders ....

So Hitler's genocide wasn't an organized mass-murder? What's the difference between a murderer and Hitler for example? A murderer who killed one person might get caught and go to jail, and will be called a murderer after his process, if proven to be guilty. Hitler organized a mass-murder of certain ethnic groups based on his psychopathic ideas and it's called a war?

Which words should I use here? Which one is the right definition I wonder? Should I call that a race murder, a mass-murder, a racial extermination, a genocide or a massacre? Does it change anything?

Answer: No, it doesn't.

History / The Untold Battle of Britain [205]

What's depressing is the fact that I spent quite a lot of time yesterday trying to make people on PF admit that war = murder, and they wouldn't.

I'll be the first to admit that then. (As an ex-military.)

youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=bX01miySwkI

There are plenty good videos on Youtube on this topic. The Spitfire ones are the best :) :)

I bet you don't even realize how this sounds to me, but it seems you don't mind a good video. Enjoy. I guess.

No the goal is to win.

Oh really? And what do you know, paintball champion? So it wasn't about genocide during the second world war? It wasn't about genocide in former Yugoslavia? It wasn't about genocide in Rwanda? They've never dropped any Napalm on villages and civilians in Vietnam? They've never dropped a nuclear bomb on Hiroshima?

It's obviously not about peace and diplomacy. It's about big bucks and resources for the elite and their industrial empires, and also about happy puppet-politicians who are allowed to keep their jobs if they agree. Oh, and something else; How can winning be a goal when everybody loses? Newsflash: War costs money and has the potential to damage and traumatize whole generations.

As for Bomber Harris, there's a statue of him and the majority of people dont believe he did anything worse than the Luftwaffe did to cities in the UK - as already stated, it was war time and **** happened.

Self-defense is justified in my books, but invading definitely isn't, especially not under the guise of stability, democracy and peace. (It's sounds nicer, doesn't it?) It doesn't change the fact war is disgusting though, and that every soldier is basically a man who's forced to shoot another man, whatever the political agenda dictates. That said, I can only hope that humanity will grow too old for this behaviour.

:)

Killing of enemy combatants by lawful combatants in accordance with lawful orders in war, although illicit killings within a war may constitute murder or homicidal war crimes

Definition of a combatant: An armed person who's actively engaging in combat. If you shoot an unarmed soldier, it's murder. If you kill a civilian, it's murder. About 1.366.350 Iraqi civilians got murdered already, and about 16.373 American soldiers were killed in action. So you can do the math, and then have the nerves to tell anyone that war isn't murder. You can dress it up all you want, however you like, but I'll be there, whiping my butt with such euphemisms.

Hey, I try different beers and drinks every weekend, and I've already tried all of the aforementioned beers. I've never had any Greek beer though, or perhaps I can't recall what I was drinking in Greece anymore? Which means I've had a blast in Greece! (Maybe even with Southern's sister, who knows?)

Does any country other than Poland serve a tomato-catsup-like sauce on the side with their pizzas? In Polish pizzerias that is common, but I have not run into an pizza places in Michigan that do so. The tomato sauce is baked into the pizza, not poured over the baked pizza.

Love / Are there Polish women who date black guys? [281]

White guys who don't have a problem with that either have a beautiful girl themselves (so they don't care) or they are metro man with no balls.

Or they're busy with German girls in the dunes.

xD

In natural history it used to be normal for single guys to get angry when seeing a girl of their own tribe dating a guy from another tribe.

In the earliest days of humanity, humans used to be nomads and hunter-gatherers. They travelled the whole globe, traded goods with eachother and never actually settled down in one place. The smaller their numbers got, the less chance they had of surviving, so they actually had to team up whenever they encountered another group, and they actually had to cooperate to survive. There's a lot of evidence which suggests that the earliest humans didn't wage war with eachother, apart from a few isolated cases which probably had to do something with rivalry, in most cases probably to settle disputes about who had the leadership over a group. Oh, and exchanging partners from tribe to tribe was actually quite normal, because it ensured healthy offspring and prevented inbreeding. (We're not necessarily talking about race here.)

Now get back to find your natural feelings, you brainwashed boy!

I'm willing to bet he experiences more natural feelings than you do on a monthly basis, but ofcourse you're too busy to whine about black guys to notice that, instead of picking up your balls and actually approach a girl.

Love / Love without chemistry? (Asian in love with a Polish woman) [195]

Love is complex.

You can keep telling yourself that, but it's really simple actually. You really feel attracted to eachother for all kinds of reasons or you don't. I say 1+1=2. You say 1+0 could turn into 2.

Emotion is affected by many factors.

Yes, but at the same time it's all very simple. If she likes strawberry flavour, and really dislikes citrus flavour because it's all a bit too sour for her, then you can pretend to give her strawberry flavour all you want, but she'll taste the citrus flavour everytime. Why do that?

It may change with age and life experiences over time.

When I say chemistry I mean everything, the whole picture. I don't mean you have to fit her description perfectly, but she'll have to like something about you, right? I don't mean ''I appreciate the things you do for me and that's very nice of you'', I mean ''I'm really happy that you're the one who's doing those things for me''. There's a real big difference between those two lines, buddy. (Sorry, there just is!)

A woman may find you very physically/chemistry attractive now, yet look at that same physical attractiveness with disgusted eyes some time later if you cheat her, if you over emphasize that appearance, boasting about it, or if she found out some other characters about you.

I'm totally open about who I am, what I think and how I feel about a variety of matters, and if she doesn't like any of that, then it simply wasn't meant to be and you won't hear me cry about it for one second. (Yes, I've learned from every possible mistake I've made in the past, because I took a very long break to look at myself.) Oh, and I might've said a lot of things, but I've never cheated, and will never do so.

A woman may also feel you're not physically attractive now, yet later on want to have intimacy with you, and settle down with you for a family, based on your characters, that she feel secured with you, that her kids will have a caring father.

''Sayanora''.

;)

You're right that I'm a bit humourless.

Everybody has a sense of humour, and so do you, but you just have to find out what kind of humour you like best.

For this point, I totally agree! Thanks.

Hey, you don't have to agree, because it's just a simple truth.

;)

There you go. Why is it hopeless when we've had those moments, and when she's still free to make a final decision for her life? It's just what you think because of your life experiences and belief, which are different from mine.

It's hopeless because you've told us she doesn't feel much for you, because you've told us that she doesn't find you attractive, but mostly because of the fact that you don't really seem to acknowledge the importance of butterflies and strong feelings for eachother. (Whatever the reason!)

Thanks for your comments. We're very different. I guess we don't actually appreciate and understand each other's points. Yet I respect yours. It's OK though.

Good, because I'm not here to hurt your feelings.

:)

What does this drivel of yours have to do with Poland apart from a Polish woman in question who has no romantic interest in you?

Ofcourse there are more things on this forum which don't have anything to do with Poland, but these threads are about what occupies many people, and as you may already know, people are pretty much the same everywhere, even if you take all of our little differences into consideration. But you're right, I'm afraid he doesn't get it.

Love / Love without chemistry? (Asian in love with a Polish woman) [195]

I guess you would quickly walk away from a woman who doesn't understand you.

Depends on her reaction, and ofcourse we can always be friends.

;)

How much time you would give a woman to understand you? First few minutes, hours?

Hey, she either does, or she doesn't? I'm not giving her any time schedules actually, I'm simply enjoying myself and if she thinks she wants more.. Well, who am I to object? To keep a long story short; I don't really have too many expectations whenever I talk to a girl, I'm just simply living my life and usually try to enjoy myself.

;)

How long you can keep that understanding and laugh, without all the realities (or needs per your definition).

How long? Hey, it takes two people to Tango, but it seems you just can't grasp that concept, since you seem to believe that you can create chemistry where it's completely absent. No offense, but you sound a bit humourless, and from what I've gathered you don't show too much initiave when it comes to involving her in fun things, so maybe you should do something with that little piece of information! Who knows what it might do for you in the future?

You're not married yet.

I plan to study, and marriage is overrated anyway. (It's just a piece of paper really!)

When you are, you may change your mind as how much time is necessary for two people to understand each other, how much effort and change of self and sacrifies are required to keep the laugh in the house.

Why do you think you have to change yourself? Just do yourself a favour, and try to look for someone who understands you, who's a bit like you, who can laugh with you, and more importantly; Someone who feels butterflies for you! Oh, and I'm fully aware of the fact that some situations require a compromise, and I'm not the type to run away from any of my responsibilities either. Effort? When I'm really enjoying her company, the entertainment comes naturally. I mean to say that I don't see anything as something I have to do for her, but something I like doing for her. (Maybe I'm lucky in that aspect?)

It's not simply a matter of chemistry click.

It is. Ofcourse other things matter, but like I've said, you have to be able to be naturally you with her, and excite her, otherwise it just isn't meant to be.

By the way, what is the longest time you have laugh with a woman who understands you, if you don't mind telling? It's a learning experience to me.

Twenty years, five months, eightteen days, about twelve hours and a few minutes. But let's ask a few women here a question; How often do you smirk, grin, chuckle, smile, giggle, blush, laugh and think: ''Silly!'' when you're reading from me? (Just be honest!) How often do I píss you off and annoy you? (I bet just as often!) My point is gg4, you don't always have to make a woman laugh because you want something from her, but simply because you kinda like them.

;)

There're already some happy feelings among us in other matters, except that in sex.

Uh-oh.

It may take a little more time to get things smooth, or I will have to go away.

A little? Dude, if she isn't sleeping with you within a few months, it means she's either frigid, a Lesbian, she hates sex or that she's ultra-religious. (Or could it be that she kinda likes your friendly gestures, but that she doesn't really feel anything for you?) It sounds like she could be a good friend to you, but you're going to lose her completely if you're going down this road..

As I said, I give it a few more months, may be longer if she would think it may work out in the end.

Hey, forget I've said anything! I'm just a figment of your imagination..

xD

First, we need to commit into a real relationship with each other. Then, if she would do that, I'll take it a memory to keep, a little bitter, a little sweet, and salty.

I'd recommend a Taco with Chili peppers and a bottle of Tequila to flush!

;)

But before we commit to a real relationship, we will figure out how to solve the financial issue, the children issue (if we will have any), and other issues. We will have to plan for our future.

Before what? She already told you she doesn't feel too much for you.

This may sound too much conditioning and not natural, as most people, esp. young people only believe in love and disregard the consequences.

No, it doesn't sound natural at all, it sounds creepy, forced, sad and obsessive! Oh, and if you're willing to work your ass off for the girl who loves you, things will be alright. I mean, nobody's perfect, and every relationship will have it ups and downs.

They always think that "we love each other, we will solve all the problems, we do not need to talk about money, that's not real love".

I don't think that, but I guess I'll tell you again; Money doesn't buy her heart. Besides, most working couples don't have to worry about money too much and you know it. It's funny how some people on the internet are always the most succesful though! I prefer to be realistic, and just say that about 90% of the people aren't too rich, thanks. You make it sound as if being succesful automatically ensures a happy and satisfying relationship, so I guess you're the one who's a little naive here..

;)

How can I have any chance if I ignore her feelings?

*sigh*

We had great moments.

I'm sure you've had those moments, otherwise you wouldn't be here telling us all about it, but I still think it's hopeless.

I believe that she would be fine with me in all aspects, except sex that we do not have sth in common yet, b/c of physical appearance. It may take some time, or never, I don't know by now.

So she doesn't think you're attractive either? You must really like her a lot! I think you should just treat her as friendly female company you can learn something from then, and who knows she might appreciate you for your help..

I may have been overexaggerating the situation, because all I lack are some biceps, triceps, quadriceps, major pectoralis. As for the Ischio cavernous and Bulbo cavernous, I am fine.

Who says you're lacking anything? Some women actually like slim guys you know..

;)

Personality matters. Other factors do too.

Hey, other factors always help, but if she isn't really there because of you.. (I don't have to explain this one, do I?)

Love / Love without chemistry? (Asian in love with a Polish woman) [195]

You sound like you never have problem in relationship, do you? Would be great if you could share more of your experiences.

I don't want to sound too arrogant, but I don't think I will have much problems with a woman who understands me.

No, i don't agree.

No? So you really think you can tell me that personality doesn't matter?

Lot of these marriages were broken because they were based on chemistry.

I'm about to disprove your whole theory, so stay tuned..

They came to each other because they simply like each other, without taking into account all the realities of life such as: convenience, security, materialistic needs and social status.

There's a difference between reality and needs sometimes. Now, about social status; Just take a good long look at famous and wealthy people, like moviestars for example, do they really have long relationships in comparison to less famous people? Quite the contrary I'm afraid.

When chemistry is gone, what are they going to do?

Who says the chemistry will be gone if you really found someone you understand and can laugh with? Anyway, about your theory; You're trying to create chemistry between you and this woman, and she still doesn't seem to feel too much for you. But here you are, talking about what other people will do when the chemistry is gone? It seems to me you're contradicting yourself here?

For people who come to stay with each other after long time of building up trust and understanding, knowing what they want from their partners, it's more stable.

Wrong, if there are no happy feelings involved, then you can't possibly convince me that you really understand eachother. There's a fat chance she'll want to leave you as soon as she'll meet someone who really does turn her world upside down, and if on top of that his financial situation seems acceptable to her, then you can bet your bottom that that's what will happen, if she doesn't feel much for you. (Sorry!)

Ofcourse, physical attractiveness is also important. That's why I am trying to build up some more muscles!

Didn't a few women tell you already they value personality and character?

I never ignore feelings. I just want to build it up, not from chemistry as I am not lucky in that matter, but from other factors.

I'm sure your intentions aren't too bad, but I'm afraid you are completely ignoring her feelings for you. (Or should I say her lack of feelings for you?) Look, if you can't excite her, can't make her laugh, can't entertain her, and if she can't even tell you that she really loves you, then you're not exactly acting in her - or even your own - best interest by prolonging this emotional emptiness. (You're going to make her feel bad, and I doubt that's what you want.)

:)

I'm not the daddy type, sorry.

Small correction there by the way; I guess I shouldn't ever say never, but I probably meant that at this time in my life, I don't want to be a daddy, because I want to achieve a few other goals in life before I can honestly say I can offer my unborn child a bright future.

I think you should celebrate life with someone you really like.

..if he or she feels the same way about it that is. (Blame it on the beer!)

Love / Love without chemistry? (Asian in love with a Polish woman) [195]

50% Americans divorce in 1st marriage. Another 30% -40% divorce in 2nd marriage. I guess those could be benefit learning from you what a relationship should be about. There's no single formula for a relationship.

Thank you for illustrating my point, because a lot of these marriages are based on convenience, security, materialistic needs and social status, instead of the more important factors like personality and love, which is exactly why I was trying to tell you that you can't ever hope to buy a woman's heart. Ofcourse you should continue to ignore her feelings completely, and just pretend to be happily married, because I'm the naive and young guy who never wants to listen, right?

I am glad that most of you don't agree with my arguments. Because most people know the common sense about what a relationship should be, and look at the statistics of divorce. So, something different from the common sense may work, don't you think?

You couldn't be more wrong, because that 'something different' is exactly what makes most of those marriages and relationships fail in the first place. Ofcourse there's no single formula for any relationship, because we're talking about people here, but you simply can't ever ignore feelings when it comes to relationships.

I didn't mean a question. I meant an affirmation in interrogative form. The kind that politicians want to use.

It's okay to make mistakes, really.

;)

Great advice. Thanks. Last night there was a party next door. The smell of BBQ and perfumes mixed together coming from my neighbor's backyard was so unique. I will do that some time.

Well, a little effort doesn't hurt anyone, does it?

I will take the word of those who I know who have been together for 30-50 years and have been mostly happy. They know far more than young people on the internet about what true love is.

To me true love means you want the woman you like to be happy, wether she chooses to be with you or decides to try her luck with someone else. (I guess I'm not really the jealous or possessive type.) I think you should celebrate life with someone you really like, for as long as it lasts, and treasure each moment you have together. True love? It's the silence in between the notes which actually makes the music.

;)

Sure you cannot force someone who is unwilling but at the same time it requires work from both sides...it is not some magical event like most women and a lot of naive young guys would want it to be.

I'm not the daddy type, sorry. I want to help people, have fun with people and enjoy my life and do it my way. I know a lot of people would call that immature or even wrong, but I can't help I feel that way. Think of me what you will, but atleast I'm not cheating, hurting, decieving, or even lying about it, am I? I don't think there's something to be happy about when you feel trapped in a relationship, but ofcourse some people really are happy with their relationship. Which is good!

We are honest, at least we know what we want from the other without having to speak it out.

I guess I have different ideas about honesty?

We're no longer young and partying. We're in middle age.

And? You're just as young as you feel, and age really is nothing but a number. (To a certain extent ofcourse!)

However, we do want to work towards a better relationship through hard work, patience, care, trust, responsibility, understanding.

Well, surely you can keep working on all of that, and still throw a party from time to time? I mean, who says serious relationships always have to be so serious? (She probably still wants to have as much fun as she can have you know!)

Confidence - what do you think? Do I have it?

I really don't mean to belittle you or anything, because I hate it when people do that to me aswell, but if you have to ask other people if you're confident enough then I guess you still aren't. No offense, but you really shouldn't have to look for any kind of confirmation or approval at your age. You should simply know yourself best.

Sense of humor?

There are two types of humour. You can tell a joke every once in a while, but still be dead serious and dull all the time. You can also try to makes all sorts of little jokes whenever you're having a conversation with her. (Simple things like teasing, flirting, funny anecdotes or even cheeky replies to her questions.) Try to show her a bit of your own humour when she least expects it, and I can promise you that she'll respond to that once you'll get the hang of it. Don't be afraid to be a bit crazy sometimes! (Women are totally crazy, so that's why!)
