I wonder if in Poland, the 1981-1989 crows also ended up being losers

I wouldn't say so. I would say in a way they were the winners. Still old enough to enjoy childhood of social interactions rather than social media but young enought that they escaped the drinking, auto destructive etc behaviours.

For thousands of Poles 90s were a bumpy ride without happy ending.

Even that simple change ' you can't drink at work anymore' left many behind. My mom said how suddenly with changing administration structures and switching between offices it was made clear - try the old sh*t and you are out.

Love / Smitten and Wondering [81]

it is not the same, a dude can cheat and recover without losing anything

Even if we assume that is right (which I think guys usually grossly overestimate to give themselves an excuse) that guy is not in a relationship with himself and it's not about if it will affect him but what it does to his relationship and to the women once she finds out.

Love / Smitten and Wondering [81]

Maybe she is a gambler, a drug addict, and an unfaithful drunk ...

Then he should decide whether he wants to stick around or not and act accordingly and not trying to fool around

It sounds like he fell in love with another woman.

This has nothing to do with love. He likes how she looks and that hug gave him a notion he actually has a chance and here we are.

decides to cheat on his wife, it means his marriage is over anyway.

Not necessarily. I don't think he would be mature enough to safe his marriage though.

what do you guys think?

I think you should evaluate your life/marriage outside of the recent lust and see how you feel about it. If you think your marriage is generally a happy one and you love your life forget the girl, work on your marriage and hope for the best.

If you feel the marriage is over no matter what happens with the girl talk to your wife now,

News / Poland - A True Bastion and Defender of Free Speech [250]

It's a separate room in a separate building far from the main Sejm building and meeting hall.

Still part of Sejm complex with daily masses.

But I agree there shouldn't be religion in government spaces so let's close the kaplica and stop doing the Chanuka. Deal?

How can you have a functioning society if people are doing their own thing and not wanting anything to do or have anything in common with anyone around them?

Who says nothing to do? E.g. Tuwim had everything to do with our culture and enriched it at the same time.

Then why are distinctions made only if someone is Jewish?

Because for some, like you, that makes a difference. For me? Who cares?

Why do you have a problem with Jews fully integrating into a society?

I don't. It's up to them as individuals.
Not to mention that they can be integrated and still be Jewish as you don't have to be Catholic to be Polish .

Official masses were held inside the Sejm?

And what happens in 'kaplica sejmowa'?

It was placed by MPs

At night, without any authorization.

they should have fully integrated rather than prefer to live apart in a state of coexistence.

Why?

The Krzyż sejmowy however wasn't installed by religious clergy

How about all those official masses, bishops blessing everything etc?

There I met a Catholic priest assigned to that school. No other religions were represented there.

I hope he still has something to do considering to numbers of kids refusing to go to religion classes.

Off-Topic / Russian Views On Poland and Vice Versa [382]

The guy had to make a lot of difficult choices in his life but he had brains and balls, and - most importantly - huge love for Poland in his heart.

Ok, I feel like I'm in an alternative universe. I have to agree with you again!

I generally think there was a big part of society that tried to do the best for Poland, let it be as policeman, prison staff, military.

Is it as impressive in reality as in the photos?

Not in my opinion. It needs investment. But then I was there about 12 years ago so...

I admit that it's not the most desirable state for a woman to be in

I would say that it's to be decided by every women by herself.

As to me, you really don't have to worry about my love life, I manage perfectly well on my own.

single, a good Catholic with a decent stable job in insurance, university-level education, 35 years old, no long love life history, he had one, unrequited love - a sad story - and that's pretty much it.

He sounds lovely but despite the fact I'm not interested would you really wish me on a 'good Catholic'? :)

That freedom of speech in Europe is a funny thing...only if you don't offend anyone...God forbid...

Do you think a single person would leave if the owner changed the forum location?

this description fits perfectly with your Żoliborz idol. :)))

Lol

But don't bother. He is one of those old farts (even if young in age) who think being single still is some big problem not realising that even Dżuma is better than being near them.

Not that he has any clue about my life

There is more to it and you all are lying why you are here...

No, there really isn't. I was always curious about outsider's look on Poland. I have books about it, I read articles, watch videos etc.

I also translated quite a lot for people here. Just for fun, imagine that.

And what do you think? Anyone here is hoping that 'posting on PF' will make a difference on their visa application for US? Seriously?

you ignored my response about the president and the constitution

You are generally best ignored and I used that rule to your ridiculous comments about Duda putting army on the streets (facepalm)

get this Kaczyński has a succession plan and PiS will survive and thrive.

Good one. Didn't hear such a good joke in a long while

That's why you post on PF, not a forum in Poland.

Buahaha. Yeah, we came here to talk about Poland but somehow it's all because of US ...
Do you really think most people even checked where the servers are, where it's registered etc?

sounds like you

are even more bu*thurt that a women tells you how it is. Must be tough...

Not after all the scandals and theft.

I don't think it's the scandals.

PiS was Kaczynski's creation, ruled completely one handedly and for a generation he understood
Now Kaczyński and his base are getting too old. They don't know how to connect with younger base. And once Kaczyński is gone...the party will explode

Amiga is amazingly bu*thurt about the elections. I think he (as the rest of PiS supporters loose the belief that they will get to power again.

You know as in the head of state and commander in chief?

You know as in the person who has very little power?

Anyway no, the parliament ones. Clear by the fact they weren't able to form a gov
