Real Estate / Księga Wieczysta (no entry) [16]
Rejestr Gruntów is not a Księga Wieczysta.
If the seller does not want to change entries in Rejestr Gruntów that's ok. She's right to say that it's not needed in this case.

Language / Need help spelling a Polish word (Mosiek?) [5]
It's mosiek.
It was a slightly derogatory name for a Jew but it can also be used to describe a dumb person ;)

Love / Are polish men very welcoming to foreigner and my doubts? [30]
You madame, have a textbook type of an, at least interested in you, Pole.
To say the least, this is not just common courtesy. If a polish guy invites you over for Christmas and talks about you with his mom he definetly sees you as something more than a friend.
Wish you best of luck ;)
So my questions are, Are polish men very welcoming to foreigners? As in willing to spend time all his time with the girl, prepare meals, invite the girl home, introduce to his friends and told his mom about the girl? What do you think about my doubts?

Love / My Girlfriends Decisions! Am I overreacting? British guy with Polish girlfriend. [11]
God...
Provided that the fellow Pole is also an ex-con. Where are you getting this bullshit from?
The girl is probably a nut-case, some women just like "dangerous" guys, especially those coming from a low social background that are used to men being abusive and agressive .
If you are willing to accept it it's ok, but mind that you will have to face her other "friends".
I think, though, that unfortunately you have crossed a cultural line with your girlfriend. I don't know what your cultural background is, but certainly in the above scenario a fellow Pole would have probably congratulated his efforts to resist arrest, consoled him over not being able to be at home, and offered him a drink and a bed for the night.
