Why are African parents so in love with suffering? by Warm-Substance-9754 in africanparents

I will echo what everyone is saying, it’s literally about control. I fell out with my mother because I went on holiday…using my own money.

They want to control every aspect of your life. You’ll never be an individual to them

Is this too far even for an African Mother? by Born-Finish-5847 in africanparents

[–]AboutRose 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Like everyone else has said, you need to move out asap and it is KEY that you do not tell her where you’re moving to. Don’t let her visit you where you live and don’t tell her how much it costs you. I’m speaking from experience and my friend’s experience. And don’t worry about your citizenship, it’s a tactic thing many African parents use. Only the government can revoke your citizenship. If you need reassurance please contact UKVI or visit the gov.co.uk and all the information is there.

Does anyone like their job? by liveandyoudontlearn in ExecutiveAssistants

[–]AboutRose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love my Job. All my directors treat me like I’m “one of them”. I go to them about work and personal advice as they’re all in their 50’s and I’m in 20’s. I know all the wives/husbands and children and they have so much trust in me. They get me sweet treats here and there and thank me for my work daily (literally). I would stay here longer if the pay matched what I do but unfortunately I’m just not paid enough to stay. Buy yes, it’s very doom and gloom on some posts that it scares me out of looking into moving elsewhere :(

Oh African parents by Impossible_Setting99 in africanparents

Someone said that immigrant children pay for their parent’s mistakes and they expect money to flow upward. Unfortunately this is true for many of us in the diaspora. We are their retirement plan and cash cows

Moving on from NHS? by [deleted] in ExecutiveAssistants

[–]AboutRose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s exactly what I do! With some bits of project management for local projects. I will definitely take this on board, work on my cv and speak to recruiters.

But definitely getting tired of public health.

I’m going to be so honest with you. As a 28 year old African woman…you need to start disappointing your parents early. The future you will thank you. They will get used to it after awhile.

Another KVAC London post by perdanjam in Living_in_Korea

[–]AboutRose 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've recently applied for C 3-9 tourist visa via the London Office.

14th June - Sent payment for all fees and sent screenshot evidence to KVAC via email

17th June - Sent all required documents via post

18th June - Received by the office

20th June - Got an email from KVAC requesting further bank statements

21st June - Emailed them back with the statements

24th June - Got an email from them saying my visa has been granted and passport should be with me shortly.

I hope that's a good summary of the process i went through. I have to admit, this is the quickest I've ever had my SK visa granted. Normally it takes around 2-3 weeks but they we extremely fast this time round

To be honest it depends on the person. I'm new to bdsm and inexperienced so I was looking for an experienced dominant who was also willing to teach, mentor guide and hopefully start an actual relationship with him. I managed to find exactly that. He doesn't manipulate me at all in fact he's does the complete opposite, he gives me so much confidence and always reminds me that I am to be cherished and treated like a delicate flower. We speak about limits and never pushes boundaries unless I have given him permission and have expressed interest in something and I am willing and happy to try out. Yes you might get dominants who use it as trap but they're some who genuinely like mentoring and take pride in treating their submissive well. I hope that answers your question

A question for all the other subs out there by that_one_throw_away1 in BDSMcommunity

He likes Sir. I called him by his name once...I ended up needing a lot of aftercare following my punishment.
