News / What's the stupidest question asked about Poland? [414]

I was recently at a gathering and one of my friends told someone that I'm originally from Poland. The guy turns around and asks "Are you from Poland, Ohio because that's where I was born?"

News / What's the stupidest question asked about Poland? [414]

If people don't know where Poland is all you have to do is mention the Beloved Paul John Paul II and they all know where his is from.

In my college years I met a few foreign exchange students who asked me where I was from and they thought Poland was somewhere in Asia. I mention I came from the same

country where the Pope is from and they automatically knew it.

Genealogy / Is tallness common among Polish people? [201]

It all depends on our genes. Okay, my father's family is tall. His parents were 6'9(205cm) and 6'5 (196cm). My father and I are both 6'1 (186cm) and my youger sister 6'0(183cm).

Now, my mother side of the family is average I think. My mom is 5'7(170cm) and my oldest sister is 5'8 (173cm). My son who just turned 11 is as tall as my oldest sister and still growning.

Like I said it's all in the genes. :)

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

Wow if I were left for another girl I'm not sure if I could take it.

What if you were the cause of it only to find out he was married???

It hurt me more to know that I was the cause for his marriage to fall apart, but once I did I worked my hardest to get them back together. I actually pissed him off so much that I did drive him back to her.

Now I feel better! The only thing is now I don't trust any guy! It seems to me like they always have something to hide.

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

I don't know maybe because I believe till death do us part. I felt guilty and it wasn't even my fault. He wanted to leave her and three kids and I wasn't going to let that happen.

I didn't want to be the woman who took their daddy away.

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

Hey RazZ, I never said they are but because of my experience I have a harder time trusting them. You yourself stated that you are still in your healing process and I guess I'm in mine.

Just from my experience they are, but that doesn't mean all of them.

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

RazZ I never said they were. I know many who cheat on their boyfriends or husbands and I don't agree with it. Hey, I had a hard time dealing with my ex who was married.

I agree with U, but form my point of view I only see guys. Hey, maybe I'm just a magnet for married guys and need to be demagnetized.

Life / Why are Poles always so miserable? Why do they never smile? [512]

I am always miserable and never smile so I do not know the difference.

Why are you so miserable and never smile???

Life is such a precious gift that I cherish it even though I have struggles in life. Smiling is just one of those quick pick me ups to enjoy life before I go down permanently. :)

Love / 6 months with my Polish girlfriend and I still don't understand her.. [208]

Yo Sparky, how long do you think you will keep on doing this to yourself. if you are in poland, i suggest that you take some time off to go and enjoy the view or go to clubs and try to get a date, it might take your mind off ( Easier said then done) but do try it.

People have a hard time letting go of their suffering. Out of a fear of the unknown, they prefer suffering that is familiar.
Thich Nhat Hanh

Listen to RazZ and Daffy they know what they're talking about! PEACE :)

Food / Types of CHEESE in Poland [150]

as for polish cheese... oscypki... oh yes...

oscypki.jpg

My favorite! My mouth is already watering for it. Love it and can't get enough of it. Everytime we go to Chicago I buy it by the tons. I think it's because of all the salt and I love salt.:)

News / Polish-American soldier and his wife murdered by four marines [163]

My prayers go out to the families. I heard about this story on the radio. The motive for the murder was "financial gain." Yeah, right!! It seems to me more like racial hatred and prejudice. In a perfect world, their marriage would be accepted and celebrated. However, this world does not look at all marriages as love between two people without regard to their race and two innocent people lost their beautiful lives. How sad. :(
