Love / I was raised in Poland. My Family hates my wife because she's American ... [69]

my mom was so mad that she didn't come to the wedding and on top of all that she tried to blackmail me now here is the kicke

Has she done what she can to please your family? Cause I don't think she can appease them.

Really, sit them down in front of your wife and get them to fess up what it is they want you to do differently. Confess to them the strength of your love for your wife and remind them of the beautiful grand-kids she has bore.

Admit that marrying an American (outcast if you will) was not the first choice for their happiness, but that it is essential for yours. But find out exactly what it is you can do about it?

There's no point in them hanging on to lost hopes for you to marry the village princess or anything cause you have been out in the world and have found yourself a foreign woman.

Unfortunately you simply don't know if they would take this approach with any woman you married. They are looking to have some sort of control of your life; Are you the eldest/ only son? Are your folks happily married?

Good luck.

News / Can Russia be a good partner for Poland? [42]

Yeah cause there aren't many other emerging economies in Europe... :S
Poland has the good fortune of a fairly untarnished political and economic reputation.

UK, Ireland / Do Poles in the UK pretend to be uppity because they have an inferiority complex? [60]

Inside every superiority complex there is some inferiority at work...

Not sure this applies to all Poles, but they are easy to scrutinise on this basis as there are a lot of them abroad and that makes them stand out.

They also appear to go for safety in numbers so you tend to judge them as a group rather than as individuals which often leads to poor understanding of individual circumstance.

You can also hide a lot with pride.

USA, Canada / Moved back from Canada to Poland:). Here are the reasons why. [868]

Funny Aphro, I've been reading your posts here for the best part of a month and i've got to laugh at the similarity of our experiences...

I moved to Europe eight years ago and returned back home here to Oz on 23rd September as well...

I've been doing some adjusting but sh1t, it seems having to dig your way to your car would just add difficulty to a big move...

I prey that you get through this winter and enjoy a lovely spring cause I think you're going to find it a lot easier once you have a nice warm period to immerse yourself in. I can see you're resilient and have a sense of humour and know you'll get through these difficult changes...

Just imagine all the nice places in Europe you will visit in a few months. :)

Happy New Year.

History / Watch Poland grow and shrink (interactive map) [52]

That interactive map requires a lot of detailed study. It's hard to know which city faired the best.

I wonder how it will change in the future? Probably just from within but who knows?

UK, Ireland / I'm going to a Polish New Years Eve Party in England, help?! [12]

You'll be right. They're not going to ignore the only foreigner there... They'll speak to you in English or you could strike up a conversation too?

It's New Years Eve, just get drunk and have fun! Either way you'll know a lot more Polish by tomorrow morning...

Happy New Year. :)

As long as you promise not to use anyone else's resources...

UK, Ireland / I worry about the Poles working in the UK [77]

There is something in the determined man's mind that will never let them believe that anyone owes them anything, they will always stay flexible and adept to achieve their security... Though eventually a generation or two of prosperity may change that.

In any case, If unemployment is still higher in Poland and wages lower they will continue to be better off abroad and they will know that. Those who found it difficult will probably have already left...

UK, Ireland / I worry about the Poles working in the UK [77]

In truth, I don't think the Polish have much to worry about. As has already been said, Poles are a resilient bunch and probably better equipped to ride this out than most of their British counterparts.

Probably because they haven't invested as much capital in their lives in Britain... and, well, they can always go home.

News / POLISH CHILD ABUSING A CAT.. [74]

I think part of it is because the body chemicals released during this activity makes the meat more digestable

What, urine...?

News / Polish twins have different fathers [67]

Ok, this statement is going to ooze charm and class, here goes...

All women want is a man to f*ck them all the time. All men want is to f*ck women all the time... Unfortunately men want to f*ck different women all the time while women have fooled themselves into thinking that this is not the case for them... Men contribute to this by thinking of women as their own private property. But try to own a man and he walks out the door...

Situation is folks that a women is the moon while a man is the sun...

What's love got to do with it...?

It all went downhill after the Neolithic period.

Goodnight. :)

News / Can Russia be a good partner for Poland? [42]

I think those tensions and feelings are overplayed, or used by others sometimes

Well it's true that at least they have a history together... :S

Well, maybe not ......however there is always a possibility however slim

Do you plan on being the foreign diplomat?

Interest of both country's would be on stake, problem is ; can Russia understand that and act accordingly

The interest of Poland is peace and prosperity (finally.)
Can stronger ties with Russia offer that? Not necessarily. They may be able to help broker more favourable trade deals with the Chinese but it may also get them more involved in the whole North Korea debacle at some point in the future which wouldn't be wise... especially as Russia is not aligned with the EU where foreign policy is concerned.

Russia are simply too hot to handle...
