Ah, my g/f doesn't want to go over, so in the same boat. Think it's going to make the time left here quite awkward. I don't think I can stay though, as one day I'm going to turn around and say "why didn't I go when I could".

So, any single females going to Adelaide, will see you there!!

yep that's the above 4 of us in the same boat on the ex gf front! still rather attached to mine too i must admit, although haven't even seen her for 4 months now to try and make things easier. It's really hard isn't it? Makes you think you're doing something awful to her, but we must all be the same and not prepared to compromise on what we want our lives to be!

It's messy and yep, makes being here still very awkward. Lots of arguments - "you love a country more than me / if you loved me you'd stay" type stuff. Sure you know the drill. I've had it for over a year, very draining.

So Scuba Steve i'll be joining you at the bar! What part of sydney do you reckon you'll head for? Coogee or Maroubra for me (bit of a surfer).

xzibit shame you won't be able to attend! Although god forbid we turn ourselves into a sorry load of lonely hearts missing our exes! :rofl:

Greyrabbit, feel bad for you mate, get out and have some fun, join some clubs. And don't worry, the BE singles night will be there to pick you up soon.

Xzibit, over 10 years ago I was given the opportunity to go and live and work in Sydney for a major airline, my fella at the time didnt want to go so I said no.
I regretted it every day since and has now taken over my thoughts! which is why my ex-partner (of 3 years) understood that this is something I have to do. You will def regret it if you dont give it a go.

At the moment, I feel excited about the prospect of going. BUT every now and again I think that maybe I should just stay as I don't want to leave her. But then I know for a fact, that one day I will resent her or the decision. And this is the reason why I have taken 6 months of thinking and still not sent my Vetassess app off. But now I know I've got to try it, and get everything submittted.

Just managed to speak to my old college. I told them I'm having my skills assessed for emigration and they need a diploma supplement to acompany my certificate, and the woman (head of HNCs) said she'd never heard of one lol.

So looks as though me waiting to speak to her has been a waste of time. Just hope they don't demand one, as I won't be able to get one if the college have no idea what it is lol.
