Thanks again,
JayBee, well said in relation to LivinLOS’s statement and I have to agree with you but mostly I try not to care what others think and say. I guess that it is how you feel when you are with them day after day other than just the bonking.
Whether they are for real is the big worry of us all as it is their living to convince you that they like you and of course that you are the only one they really like. Guess you just have to hope that eventually it would turn into a genuine feeling on their behalf, but just so long as I am convinced and I don’t think that I am being taken for an idiot I can live with that reality.
I did not think that River was paranoid either and I will definitely be spending far more time with her before I commit to anything. Due to my concerns of finances I do not plan on bringing anyone over here permanent. Here de-facto is enough to entitle them to the same as if you were married and I think that it is 2 years and they get a grab at it. Can’t afford to and won’t take the risk on the financial front on a permanent move.
On a side note I went to the Song ran festival in Sydney today and there was the Thai welfare stall there and they had all of the brochures, in Thai, about family law in Oz and their entitlements, what they can get from you, scary or what?
From what I have heard also is that they can change and not for the better if you bring them home. You may not get the best of both worlds, you could end up with the worst of both.
joecoolfrog, that was my intention all along, believe me.
Thanks all.
