Not necessarily....
Thanks for your mail - I also do not know how this will work. I would like to finish here, they're counting on me til Feb cuz the new guy starts in March. But I can also just leave they cant force me. The thing with Amanda is clear for me. She knows I do not want her in CH, so she is planning to return to Singapore. I'm looking after her thats true but it aint a relationship and were not having sex either. For me that is very taxing. When I come back to CH in March I look forward most to the children, that I will always live with, surely I will see them more than in the last 3 years. I do not really see us working out, though you never know... I had the same issues the last two times I was home and it was rather difficult. Despite that I really enjoy it when we can all do things together. Sometimes we have good moments, something we could build on.. my problem is that I dunno myself what I want sometimes ..
phew.. that was long - better thank me  Looks like you still have a chance, but unless you are looking for material for a soap opera .....

are you sure you were the intended recipient Englishdude? Why would somebody write you a letter in a language you don't understand?

Is Englishdude a bloke or a girl? The letter seems to be addressed to a girl, that speaks Swiss German.

ummm .. this is probably not important, but the term 'Industrial Union' appears a number of times in my translation! I wonder where that fits into an 'i-dont-know-what-i-am-saying-but-i-will-pass-the-ball-to-you-because-i-think-i-am-in-love-but-not-sure' letter?

Reminds me of those scenes in the movie Doc_Hollywood where Michael J. Fox's character reads the letters to the couple who don't know how to read. Becomes an ongoing soap opera where all the participants want to know what happens to Ellen and the Pakistani!
As much as I don't want to interfere in Englishdude's life here I'd really like to know more about Amanda and what role she plays in all of this |

- Bird 2
- 2 timing Bloke
| | | | | We continue with: - 2 timing Bloke who looks forward most to his "live-in" children????
- A journey to "find himself" which probably involves more women from Singapore that will have sex with him. . . .
Question: Is Amanda the girl from Singapore?
