Pregnant ex-gf moving back to PH

Cyr et al3 concluded that Tintin suffered from growth hormone deficiency and hypogonatropic hypogonadism from repeated head trauma.

Explains a lot!

so--Tintin has useless bollox?

Tell her you want another kid after this one. This is just the beginning

Thanks for your support. Actually thanks to everyone who decided to offer constructive and positive advice, it’s appreciated.

…And to those who want to criticise and mock, an easy and cheap unfunny joke is all it is, nothing to be proud or for me to be worried about, after all none of us after perfect.

Quick update:

B unblocked me on WhatsApp, but here comes the Karma… she must have changed her privacy settings previously to blocking me bc I couldn’t see her profile photo, which means she was either giving me a ‘message’ or wanted to hide something. I raised this with her as a FYI, but it wasn’t a request, and she said she’ll look into it. On WhatsApp you can choose who sees your profile and exclude people which is what I assumed she did.

B registered her WhatsApp without backing up, and lost all her data, messages, everything…! I feel bad for her.

B is now blaming me for “playing with her emotions” . She said she was trying to see a message that I had deleted. she is obviously very hormonal, annoyed and I feel this would be upsetting for anyone.

I’m gonna end this thread here, before Karma kicks me in the ass. Sigh.

My mother, who is no longer alive, once told me "Don't try to understand a woman as she doesn't understand herself.

15 quotes that will help you live peacefully with women

From life, literature, film and poetry, we impart a few of our favourite quotes on the art of understanding women, or as it seems…not understanding women.

1. “Women and cats will do as they please, and men and dogs should relax and get used to the idea.”, – Robert A. Heinlein

2. “There are two ways to rule a women and nobody knows them…”, – Anon

3. “To understand one woman is not necessarily to understand any other woman.”, – John Stuart Mill

4. “When a woman says, ‘I have nothing to wear!’, what she really means is, ‘There’s nothing here for who I’m supposed to be today.’”, – Caitlin Moran

5. “Women only nag when they feel unappreciated.”, – Louis de Bernières, Captain Corelli’s Mandolin

6. “You should never say anything to a woman that even remotely suggests that you think she’s pregnant unless you can see an actual baby emerging from her at that moment.”, – Dave Barry

7. “There are two theories to arguing with a woman. Neither works.”, – Will Rogers

8. “The Creator made women to please the eye, and to boggle the mind.”, – Robert Jordan, The Wheel of Time: Boxed Set

14. “After about twenty years of marriage, I’m finally starting to scratch the surface of that one (understanding women) and I think the answer lies somewhere between conversation and chocolate.”, – Mel Gibson

15. “Men learn to love the woman they are attracted to. Women learn to become attracted to the man they fall in love with.”, – Woody Allen

The bottom line is that, ultimately, nobody can help anybody else with matters of the heart.
We have to do this by ourselves.

My wives favourite expression is happy wife happy life ....

Not a shock, coming from your wife

i know that feeling.

Not quite finished…

There won’t be any more updates on the relationship bc I have an fairly good idea of what the prevailing sentiment is regarding my situation.

However, were I to move to PH on my own accord, where would be a good place to stay/live. I’m retired with some money, and enjoy sport, the outdoors, night life, music, beaches, sea food, water sports.

Thanks

Hi Oss,

Thanks for your reply, it’s not a small point, it’s actually very significant. I’m sorry to hear about your account, it must have been frustrating and distressing for you.

So, a British national has no rights at all in PH re anything? Could you please elaborate because I’ve been considering the possibility of moving to PH in the future, and I now realise that I know very little about the PH culture, their way of doing things, and their view / treatment of foreigners.

When you say “never argue with anyone lest you be risking life or liberty”, that sounds pretty tough!

Anyone, as in a position of power such as the police, or anyone anyone such a Joe Public?

Hypothetically, could I get a long stay visa, open a bank account, buy land, buy a car, open a business, get married, raise a family easily?

Nope.

I see, my initial assumptions were off. So, how do ex-pats live out there?
