Re: I think today I've gone 'troppo' - help!

Re: I think today I've gone 'troppo' - help!

lol! I love it! I don't know where you live but this seems to be the case so often in the US. Here we either have the yucky trash or the yuckier trash. :D

Re: Just another cursed expat!

That's my experience too. It's like people who are pro-gun seem to justify it all by saying 'that's why more people need guns'. It's a battle I am sick of partaking in because like you, I just feel...

Re: House swap

Hmm, while I was pretty confused by your post especially the tax bits- I really need things laid out strictly in layman's terms- I do see your points about having our residency there be legit. I...

Re: I think today I've gone 'troppo' - help!

Thank you very much for saying that, all of it.
I'm glad you've begun selecting who you continue to help, that one woman sure as heck doesn't deserve any more of your time. I have people like that...

Re: I think today I've gone 'troppo' - help!

Funny thing is I feel the same way. Like the only time anyone seems to want anything to do with me is when they want something. And the greed, oh my gosh the greed! I am continually amazed at how...

Re: I think today I've gone 'troppo' - help!

This post has caught my eye. I really feel for you, windsong. I guess mainly because even though I am not an expat in the US I also feel those same exact feelings of being lonely. Difference for me...

Re: Just another cursed expat!

Truth is it's not just expats. There are Americans (myself included) who can't seem to fit in either. I suspect that's true with all countries and cultures, there are those that seem to stick out and...
