Love / DO POLISH MEN DATE OLDER WOMEN? [169]


thats very true. Very very hard to do in reality, but you cant force someone to stay with you if they are no longer in love.. and who knows, they may come back to you...as the song goes.. if you love someone set them free.. Good luck to you Razz

Love / DO POLISH MEN DATE OLDER WOMEN? [169]

everyone is different.. some will forgive and others wont.. my partner's wife would take him back tomorrow.. even though he left her for me and we've been living together for 18 months and seeing each other for 2 years. Personally, I wouldnt forgive because you can never forget..its always there at the back of your mind.

do you think they ever consummated that relationship?

Love / DO POLISH MEN DATE OLDER WOMEN? [169]

I am no expert, I only speak from experience that its not good to confuse the two. How old are you? I have had experiences with younger men, that were fun, but definitely lust..(although at times I thought they were love) Now Im in love (and lust) and I recognise the difference... guess it comes down to whether your relationship is based solely on sex or whether there is a deeper connection.

Love / DO POLISH MEN DATE OLDER WOMEN? [169]


Says who? this is total rubbish, maybe in Poland its not common, but here in the UK I know plenty of gorgeous women in their 30s and even 40s who have never been married.. by choice! (and I include myself in that).. I am 4 yrs older than my Polish bf and its not an issue for us. However, some narrow minded family and friends (Polish) wonder why Ive never been married at my age.. its merely a cultural difference, nothing more.

Love / English Men vs Polish Men [207]

not sure we should be generalising about whole nations of guys... after all there are good and bad specimens of mankind (and womankind) in both countries. However, in my own limited experience of these matters my Polish bf has much better manners than many English guys I have been out with, but there is a flipside to those traditional values, eg) in terms of male attitudes towards women...

Food / Barszcz czerwony recipe (Beetroot Soup) [48]

Peterweg.. your fathers method sounds like it would taste great, but Im thinking it sounds a bit messy and may seek another option. Thanks though, youve got me thinking about trying it out this weekend. Worried about cooking Polish food though.. as a non Pole it is never gonna match up to his (my partner) mothers is it.. could be a recipe for disaster :)

My dad used to make great Mulligatawny, but its not exactly Polish.

Food / Barszcz czerwony recipe (Beetroot Soup) [48]

you wouldnt put yeast in it though would you? do you use fresh chicken stock? guess i should just look up the recipe.

Food / Barszcz czerwony recipe (Beetroot Soup) [48]

thanks for this. I love that soup and would love to have a go... Im not sure where I would leave beetroot to ferment for 10 days though.. maybe an airing cupboard? Can you still make it the same way without the fermenting or is this absolutely vital?

??????? does anyone know what this Spaniard is talking about? answers on a postcard.

Peterwerg, what you say is true and I agree that people shouldnt work for less than the minimum wage.. however the reality is that many do, as they are desperate for work. I know of people in th UK (mostly Poles) who work for less than £4 an hour. Im not saying its right, but there are always going to be ruthless employers looking for cheap labour.. and there will always be those who wish to avoid paying taxes and are therefore prepared to accept such low wages.

News / Polish Immigrants Leave America for Europe [210]

these may be the official statistics.. but I dont think they are truly representative and may be misleading to some who might come here seeking work... it clearly also depends upon skills, qualifications and type of job. C'mon guys, stop quoting stats and get real.

If the average Pole turns up in London expecting to get a job earning £40K they are going to be in for a nasty shock.

News / Polish Immigrants Leave America for Europe [210]

wow! I agree those figures are inflated. Of course there are high earners in London, but I would say the average wage was nearer to £20K.

Language / Polish Swear Words [1242]

I know.. sorry I was just being silly... it does seem to be one of the most commonly used words amongst Polish guys in the UK though... and Im including my bf in that... though not to me, obviously. No, kaka is quite endearing really..its mostly used by small children to describe goovneh (sorry dont know how to spell that). Anyway, Kaka, nice to 'meet' you. Im off home now.. hope to speak again soon.

I like cooking and would love to have a go at Golabki, but all this sounds kind of complicated. Does anyone have a tried and tested quick and easy method.. and how long does it take to prepare it?

Food / What's your favorite Polish beer? [870]

sorry have no idea about that one, but Im sure someone else could help you if you start a new thread in food and drink. God I could do with a Zubrowka right now.. but Im at work so maybe not the best idea.

Food / What's your favorite Polish beer? [870]

no problem..its great isnt it. not sure where you live, but you can also get it in some supermarkets and off-licences in the UK. Traditionally drunk with apple juice, ice and slice.. although Ive recently tried it with Bitter Lemon and Cranberry (not together), which werent bad either..

Food / What's your favorite Polish beer? [870]

How about Redds? Its sweet and tastes like a cross between cider and beer... or is that just me?

Zubrowka... available in all good Turkish supermarkets in the UK.. for the hefty price of £15! much cheaper in Poland.. obviously
