Love / Is she genuine? - I would like some advice please re a Polish girl. [130]

I really don't think this is getting anyone anywhere...

How does it help seeing if she has bad grammar? I've come across several people that are very poor with grammar, and spelling.

What's not to say 95% of what she says is legitimate yet she's a scammer?

This can happen anywhere and by almost anyone.

I have had friends get burnt. One close friend saw a woman for some years in a long-distance relationship and got burnt when she fell pregnant to one of her other "boyfriends" (she was not in Poland, but nearby).

Simply put - you just can't tell and have to go on instinct and have some guard up.

At very best you might be able to find out if she's pretty much who she says she is - lives where she says etc. That won't protect you against someone just seeing what they can get. Not much different to anywhere - much like being in a bar and girls flirt to get drinks bought.

I'd just say, if you enjoy your discussions with her, feel free. If you can meet her, even better. Be somewhat cautious if asked for money or to pay things.

(Different matter - don't these forums have any notifications? I've not had 1!)

Work / Does it make sense to move from the UK to Wroclaw for this salary? [50]

He said he would be moving with his partner + baby, do you really think he will be able to give out less than 1000zl/month for food???

As I started reading through this your estimate was suprising to me also. At the time I didn't know he was moving with partner & baby - and he hadn't said this when you posted this!

Some others have said it also, but there can be more than just the pay packet to consider. I left good money in Manchester (though Australian myself) to come here and not regretted it for a sec. Partner is Polish, and her family and friends have made me feel so welcome - more so than most ever did in the UK.
