the reason im only now replying we share a home together,is purely because his family and i only found out 3 weeks ago that hes been married for the last 8 months all the time hes been coming home on leave ,sharing my bed, acting although everythings normal, i found out by accident what hes done, he didnt tell me his sons or his sister, hes obviously not so 'very much in love' as he was ashamed to either end our relationship, or tell anyone, hes completely gutless, he plays the 'feel sorry for me 'card very well and gullible isnt the word! sorry to moan but truly this man has lied so much its unbelievable! trixi :O) xxx

i love the girl but i have no choice but to leave her and take the job cause nothing will happen to us if its always like that i mean what will be our future if we don't take opportunities knocking on the door..and if she loves you she will understand because its for the two of you and u can take her with you soon right..in the end f both of u can pass this test of love it will mean that she is really the one for u..right?

yes john do plz clarify why exactly u ask other ladies their plans when you have had a partner for 13 BLOODY YEARS that u share a home with! and y u got married last november without telling any of your family back home and in fact were found out, and you STILL denied it even after i d/loaded your wedding certificate!and y u shared my bed only 5/6 weeks ago,after being married without telling anyone for 8 months? and y u told me that you loved me n couldnt wait to be home?trixi :O) xxx

If she really loved you she would go with you or wait for you!! I followed my boyfriend, now husband every where and wouldn't leave him. I left family and friends behind and sacrificed a lot, to stay with him.

greentea he was also telling me his partner of 13 years that he loved me and asking my advice re: singapore saying he wanted to come home to uk and me! he was in my bed only 6 weeks ago sayin he loved me wanted to be with me, i found out he had 'married' 8 months ago by accident he didnt tell his family nor myself"! hes sent me loving emails sayin he wants to come home etc etc, and was foning me on his way to work so his wife didnt find out! troll isnt the word, deluded/sly/sneaky/liar/ who believes his own lies, the hurt he has caused at home is unbelievable! trixi :O) xxx

You seem to have already made your bed, so you will have to lie on it I'm afraid. You have turned the job down, so whether you were/are being silly or not doesn't really come into the equation any more, does it. It's done and dusted.

Strange though that she is prepared to marry you, but won't move to Singapore with you. Where will you both be living after you marry? You're still employed here in Qatar, I presume.

Singapore would be wonderful!

then his life has definitely changed in the past few months. I spoke to him on the phone about a year ago, to arrange to play squash. He'd just returned from vacation in the UK and was desperately upset, over the phone, about missing his family back home.

Now he has a girlfriend he wants to elope to Singapore with?

johnjo - if she doesn't want to join you (all expenses paid) then I'm not sure she feels as strongly about you as you do about her! IMHO

Have you offered to take her kids with you both to Singapore too?

By logicsays• 16 Oct 2008 09:15
logicsays

you asking for? are you seeking comfort that youe took the right decision or are you regreting inside you turned down the offer?

There is great difference bteween the two, no one can help you take a decision because no one knows how much you are in love, how much you are currently eraning, what was the offer for, was it a career move or just a move, how much your GF loves you, if she loves you so much why did she not agree to go with you ...etc

when you have the right answers for all the above you will know if you took the right or the wrong decision in that time .. but I guess time will tell

Good luck

get your priorities right,john.....sit down in a quiet corner and think well.....is your GF so special that losing her will mean the end of the world to you?or do you think that u'll never get a job as lucrative as the one you were just offered?

if i were in your place,i'll tell you what i'd do.i know i'd fall in love with only the person i intend to spend the rest of my life with.and i'd not lose him for anything.i'm educated and i have the confidence that i'll get a better job later too.but such a thing cannot be guaranteed about that special person in your life.this is just my perspective.

To

Juliet

Grade 7.0 S.M

Sub: Offer of love!

Dearest Ms Juliet,

I am very happy to inform you that I have fallen in Love with you since the 14th of October (Saturday).

With reference to the meeting held between us on the 13th of Oct. at 1500 hrs, I would like to present myself as a prospective lover.

Our love affair would be on probation for a period of three months and depending on compatibility, would be made permanent.

Of course, upon completion of probation, there will be continuous on the job training and performance appraisal schemes leading up to promotion from lover to spouse.

The expenses incurred for coffee and entertainment would initially be shared equally between us. Later, based on your performance, I might take up a larger share of the expenses.

However I am broadminded enough to be taken care of, on your expense account.

I request you to kindly respond within 30 days of receiving this letter, failing which, this offer would be cancelled without further notice and I shall be considering someone else.

I would be happy, if you could forward this letter to your sister, if you do not wish to take up this offer.

Wish you all the best!

Thanking you in anticipation,

Yours sincerely,

Romeo (HR Manager)
