Love / 20% of adult Poles are single and live with Mummy! [241]

nomaderol: this concept 'being adult' is problematic.. as i said above, most of married guys are like children of their wifes. their marriages are like leaving mom for another mom. i trying to educate father to make him adult even at his 80 years old. imagine the rest.

Yeah well, maybe girls don't like smart guys?

Exactly, and it isn't only happening in Poland..

Yeah, it's always easy to talk when you have money. It's even easier when you're one of those marketing parasites.

You can get yourself a bit of a tan in the shadows aswell you know, that way, the chances you'll burn are minimal. No beaches for you young lady. Hey, and you can do so many other things outside during the Summer?

That's exactly your problem.

Well, she's a hottie..


Well, I happen have fair skin which tans easily, and I also look a little more tanned during the winters than most fellows do around here. (Maybe this has something to do with the bit of French in me?) Anyway, what I wanted to say.. My skin tans very easily, but I keep more summerspots every year. People with a lighter skin don't seem to have that problem, because they usually avoid sunbathing, or atleast they're more careful. I don't really sunbathe that much myself, I'm just not too worried about using sunblock during the Summers. So I guess fair skin which tans easily isn't everything either..

Maybe the grass is always greener on the other side?

No, it's nothing like that. The guy mentioned that many people think he has something mediterranean in him, and well, I've known a few half-greeks from England who do look a little like him. Roma aren't always very dark though. I have a Roma friend in Holland, and if I didn't know any better I'd call him Greek or Latino.

Love / They seem nice, but could Polish girls be "gold diggers"? [196]


No, but it's not like I can do anything about it.


Hey, believe it or not, but some of us do..


Yeah, but that's because.. (It's probably in my best interest to shut up now?)

Love / They seem nice, but could Polish girls be "gold diggers"? [196]

I have my pride. I want a girl to know who she's sleeping with. If that's not good enough, then that's too bad. (I'll keep my honour, thanks!)

:)

Love / They seem nice, but could Polish girls be "gold diggers"? [196]


I'm not saying it's all known to me, but ofcourse I understand why women tend to choose the more succesful ones.


Fair enough.


Well, over here girls usually talk to eachother about a guy they might be curious about, and that's how they find out if a guy is doing well for himself or not, or if he fits in their community or not. (Not all the girls care about such things though!)

;)

Love / They seem nice, but could Polish girls be "gold diggers"? [196]


I feel the same way. I've worked with some really hard working girls from Poland, and I know one who even showed up at work when she really should've stayed in bed. She was really sick that day, but she was afraid she would lose her job. I basically had to drag her home, and I made sure that she didn't. I never came across a girl who was so fragile who showed so much character. She had a very big mouth too! (Which I like.)

:)

Love / They seem nice, but could Polish girls be "gold diggers"? [196]


I do understand, don't you think that's probably why I'm discussing it?

;)


So you're saying that a woman who's doing well for herself - in this day and age of equality - can't be with a guy who's doing not so well for himself? I mean, can't women secure themselves these days? Just as much as guys can? No offense, but your way of thinking is traditional for a woman, and you seem to apply the same logic, even when it's obvious that times are changing. I mean, the more women reach higher positions, the more guys will be left out for these positions. (Which in itself isn't a bad thing!)

Maybe this'll explain it better? We have fifty job offers. We have fifty guys, and we have fifty girls applying for these jobs. All these guys and girls have the same qualifications. I'm sure you can do the math as to how this affects the traditional role-pattern? So are the twenty five guys and girls who will not succeed at securing this job automatically losers? Or even stupid? I beg to differ.


I just want people to be aware of the fact that being single or not can really make a world of difference for younger people these days. Just a decade ago it was doable to develop yourself on your own, all by yourself, but today it's a lot more difficult to survive on a minimum wage, especially when you're single. (It's the same for both men and women ofcourse!)


They'll probably learn when they're older, but in most cases, they'll end up alone when their sugar daddy finds a younger girl to play with. (I understand women well enough to know that the competition can be killing sometimes!)

;)

I understand to a certain extent, but who says that someone who doesn't appear to have a future, won't have a future tomorrow? It all starts with having character, and the will to work for it. I really think that sometimes, some guys could really use a hand, and who knows they might even surprise you under slightly different circumstances. I guess I mean to say that some guys might actually do much better under a bit of a woman's influence. I'm not saying we can't do it alone though! It'll just take longer without a partner. Sort of like how some girls will be able to get an education because their boyfriends pay for their appartment, and stuff like that.. (Sharing the rent might also make a HUGE difference!) It's easy to call someone a loser on the forehand, but I think both men and women know that this world isn't always fair for everyone. It's not always the guy's own fault, that's all I'm saying.

I don't think gold diggers are clever though. I mean, one day you'll wake up, realizing time has passed, and that you've spent most of your time with someone you didn't really like, and then you'll realize that you've never shared a real connection with anyone. It can be a cold world without love you know.. (Regrets can really be a bítch sometimes!)

Life / Do you think that Polish people are rude? [951]


Just spend three weeks in my country. I think some Polish people can be a bit socially clumsy from time to time, but I find them rather cute and innocent compared to Dutch people in general.

UK, Ireland / Why are Polish people, especially women, so disrespectful toward the English? [437]


Not entirely, no. I wouldn't vieuw any woman as a piece of meat, but ofcourse there are women who choose to sell themselves. I fail to see how rape comes into this. If you would talk about women trafficking and the exploiting of women who live in poverty, then I'd say you're absolutely right.


You have a point, but it's not like every woman would agree with you. Oh, and vieuwing a woman as a piece of meat would be inhumane indeed. She's a human being with feelings and emotions, just like yourself, but maybe you'll understand when you're raising your own little lady one day. (You never know!)


I understand you completely, but it's not like I'm expecting anything to change soon. I can only hope that one day the people who call themselves liberals will understand that it's in their best interest to treat people fairly. I'd almost call it a law of nature, because it's a very simple, yet universal truth. You reap what you sow.

For the ones who still don't understand; If you want people to respect you, you should treat them with respect. You can't expect people to respect you when you're talking about solidarity, respect in society and all that charity-talk about reducing poverty, when all you have to offer is lip-service.

I gave up on politics, but I will keep talking about simple values. It doesn't matter if you're left or right wing, or a centrist, because we're all human beings, and we all want a decent life for ourselves.

Love / How do Polish boys feel about foreign girls? [163]


I would agree with you if we were talking about murder, physical abuse, domestic violence and rape.


I don't think it's a complete mystery to most adults that almost everyone has the potential to do some damage under certain circumstances. I could understand a person who steals out of hunger. I could understand a person who protects him or herself. I could understand a prostitute who has mouths to feed.

I don't understand why some people get socially stigmatized for a few screw ups that most of us made, or could've made under the same circumstances. Things like losing your job, losing your partner, cheating, lying, or even punching the dickhead who keeps insulting you for no good reason. I guess that's what I mean.

:)

Love / How do Polish boys feel about foreign girls? [163]


Yes. Simple and honest. We don't have to pretend we're still living in the Victorian age, because that's the only reason some people are afraid to be honest. Why should we want to make everything so complicated?

We're all different, there's no shame in that. There's no need to generalise, and there certainly is no need to place the blame. (The famous pot and the kettle story.) I'm all for etiquette and friendliness, and I've always liked watching discussions between people who are able to make their point and bring everything with a certain flair..

But on the other hand, I think we all need to vent sometimes, and I know I'm not unique! It would be nice if that wouldn't be taken too seriously all the time. Just because I'm mad about something, doesn't mean I'll be mad for eighty years. When I insult someone, it doesn't mean I can't say sorry, or admit that I was wrong.

Forgive and forget. Live and let live. Boys will be boys, and girls will be girls. Variety is the spice of life. Simplicity is the key.

I like these kind of phrases. People should keep in mind we all make mistakes, and that we all learn from our mistakes, if only we could admit this without recieving such a harsh treatment for admitting those. I mean, isn't that a sign of honesty then? I think it's a pity how harsh some people judge others, because if we wouldn't it would really make a difference.

I know you're kidding, but it could be true. I mean, Greece has a population of about 11 million people, and Poland has a population of nearly 40 million people.. (Which means more women!)
