h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Missed your posting onR2 Life board due to sleep finally catching up with me and the board now shut!!.
Hope you are ok?....

Thanks for asking ST 'bout time you caught up on some sleep,Me an sag(miz307)Are on the "anyone Fancy a chat" Thread if you care to join.

you didn't say whether you were ok or not?.............

not wanting to be too nosey but are you "married" to this guy or is it partner?........It seems he's causing you some difficulties......

I'm ok always am Married,but i don't live with him.Complicated at the moment,to say the least.

ok.....well can only say as before.....take whatever time is needed....don't allow yourself to be rushed into anything you are nor 100% happy with........



(voice of experience....believe me....)

Thanks ST

Thing is ST i want to help him and i also want to go aboard (for a new life) But can't every time there is a light at the end of the tunnel,we always seem to just have incredibly bad luck Its good to have a third person that can contribute without "taking sides" so to speak and i'm really sorry for burdening you with my problems as i know everyone has them

Hi LMB...I'm assuming he's a similar age to you?...if so then there's time on your sides anyway.....just remember the grass is always greener on the other side untill you get there.....at least at this stage there are no kids to consider because then it gets tougher.
One blessing I think from my past is no kids.
(big assumption on my part the no kids, you haven't mentioned any.)!!

No ST,no kids just the dog.

Not much more to say really....it's one of those situations where despite any amount of advice you ultimately have to make the decision.
I would cetainly be dubious about keep giving out money...bit concerning that he wants to start business etc abroad yet keeps turning to you for cash??....seems odd to me.
I'll chat anytime, it's not a burden and if anything I say is of use then great.If you think I'm being too nosey just tell me...
Best of luck!!

The buisness is set up out there,with all the suppliers and contacts needed having already been got,even down to a home to live in and a job with another firm for the pair of us to go if anything bad happens.He went back the day before new years eve to finish everything off and also collect some cash he was owed,seen the man go to the bank and put a cheque in was then asked did he want to wait for cheque to cash,he then thinking i would go mad if i had to spend new years eve alone said no best get back,now he's just waiting on the all clear from bank to say cheque has cashed.

Well, sounds like everything is set from his point of view, you obviously have some doubts somewhere for some reason.It's a big move in more ways than one....leaving behind family friends etc....so it's understandable you have reservations.
What you can't have is reservations about the relationship...you need to be as certain as possible it's what you want or business or no business, it'll be a diaster.

What i want is yes to see the world as when i'm old i'll only say now why didn't i do that? As i've heard countless other people actually say.I want to see different things,and exprience a different culture,it's now just time for him to unstick his finger from his behind(sorry tried to make that as nice as poss) And get us over there,instead of every day saying i want to be back over there and i wish i was there.I don't feel as though thats got through to him yet.To change your life you've got to do the changing,not expect to just suddenly wake up one day and for it to be changed.

So very true....one has to work at it.....I don't have a problem re. the world travel scenario...never had an inkling to go abroad....never had a passport!!!!!
My view is there's still far too much for me to see and do in this country despite our weather!!

I've done quite a lot North of the Watford Gap and nothing down south yet.

reading between the lines...cyberly speaking of course....I get the impression you are impatient for change?

See there's so many things to do and you do only get the one go at it.I'm impaitent yes as I want to do so many things before ,well i cant.Does that make any sense?

yes I can see exactly what you are saying...it's known by the wise folk as the 'Impatience of Youth'........Has to happen now...not tomorrow....tomorrows another day!!!
Sorry if that sounded 'Parental'...wasn't meant to be but I think it describes you and thousands of others in similar situations.
I'm only actually 46....yet get told constantly I'm more like 66 in my attitude!!Insulting in one respect, complimentary in another.
I could go through a whole mix of quotations for this situation but it's pointless and would be meaningless to most anyway.
You are right though...things like this won't 'just happen'...they have to be made to happen and that involves committment and resolve from all sides in everything...good,bad and indifferent.

*blimey, did I say all that*..

Actually it's quite funny that you get told you act older than you are,because i normally do as well,never been one for clubs or anything i'd rather sit in a pub for half the price!

Too true an all....can't be doing with all the head thumping noise either me..............tend to go to a country music club every Monday now, has a live act every week...mixture of talent...some good some so so, others c***p...only costs a quid to get in so no big loss!
also a quite local on outskirts town, no jukebox, ideal for chatting.As I don't drink, brother does so I drive!

My mum always gets stuck driving as she's been tea total for about 10 years!(nothing medical,her choice and she sticks to it)

sensible lady.....I never have....never will.......was never a big drinker anyway,can't stand beer...used to be a whisky man me!!!
