Merriweather: That would be right... I doesn't snow in Perth, any more than it does Adelaide... , but I reckon I'd be fascinated...
I bet you were secretly proud that you could show another soul something different... well done...
I was feeling to cold to feel proud
It was kinda facinating however..because it's something I deal with every winter....She couldn't stay out there long enough...Good memory for sure of the time I was with her.
I am in a weird situation. Well, at least to me it is weird and I have no clue what to do. I met this guy in the US. We dated since June and in October I had to leave to my home country. Love was (is) strong and we didnt want to lose each other and decided to get back together. He told me to wait till we figure out what to do. Time is going and still nothing. I ask him if he has any idea of what we are going to do, he says "i am working on it" or "we will talk about it later". It does hurt me. He doesnt look like he is fooling. Probably he is an indecisive type and it takes hi long time to become ready for something. But what about me? I am tired of this distance and I am tired of him having no idea what we gonna do.
I just thought i am going to give him a deadline (yes , kinda weird choice of the word, but still) early January. Early January I want him to tell me he is coming to meet my family, early january is the deadline for him to elaborate a plan and everything.
my question is should I give him such deadline or should i leave it as is ?
i am feelling lost
Have not read the whole thread...
But... within 2 months you're having doubts?? Doesn't sound too strong from your side of it either...
What are you going to do?? What do you want to happen?? I doubt you'll find a guy that will go live in Kazachstan... But what are you doing towards making things happen...

If you put pressure on a person too much at times, they will retreat and perhaps question, is this the person I really want to be with, due to all the hurdles that have to be crossed, given you are from two completely different countries.
morgan5: Hiya Pat Just don't think we can always except to have everything we want given to us, and play yhe female card when it suits.
Just to be serious for a change I honestly believe in give and take in all aspects of any relationship. At times one partner will need more than the other. It always works out 50/50 in the end but as always certain folk need more support in different areas. OOOOOO that hurt me serious y the way -8 tonight bloody cold outside

plainlyjune: no deadlines. I mean no need to give him a deadline. But you can give yourself a deadline, to decide whether you want to continue waiting. Take other things into consideration and build a life without him in it. A contingency plan of sorts. Whether he makes it to you or not, you have a life to keep you grounded.
Should you decide to give him an ultimatum, be ready for the worst. Lots of people don't work well under pressure. But i do hope you achieve your goals.

My grandmother used to tell me: "When a man says he doesn't know what he wants, it's usually because he doesn't want what he has." She hasn't been wrong yet. I'm not saying he won't move, or that he's a bad guy - after all, it's a big ask, to move your entire life to another country. I wouldn't hopld my breath on this one. JMO.

ultimatums and deadlines never work......if he loves you and wants you to be with him then you will KNOW ......and he will do everything he can to make it happen......if hes lukewarm about it then maybe its just not meant to be

Wish I had known your grandmother, sounds like a wise woman.
