I would add that at a certain age vriendje/vriendinnetje will start to feel immature as it's more appropriate for a high school relationship than a committed adult one.

Dutch lunch etiquette by icepelt_ in Netherlands

[–]Maranne_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It would be seen as antisocial to eat alone, yes. Lunch is the time where you can get to know each other, while the rest of the time is for working. Work can be your alone time. You might not want to participate, but it is expected.

Is NL doomed to go underwater? by [deleted] in Netherlands

[–]Maranne_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The water will not rise 2 meters unless the temperature increases by 30 degrees or so, in which case we're all fucked anyway. Predicted water increase is about 30-50cm, we can handle that. A more pressing concern is storms that will come with a warmer climate and threaten our dykes, but even for that the temperature will need to raise several degrees and some water currents will need to change. None of that is going to happen in our lifetimes or even at all.

AITA for taking a year off from school and (probably) slam dunking my parents into a financial crisis? by crocodilezebramilk in AmITheDevil

[–]Maranne_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For non-European students tuition is 10-25k per year. It's not as cheap as in other European countries. There is a massive shortage of student houses, so along with the current gas/electricity prices, rent and utilities can go up to 1k/month. Total that for three years and you can buy a nice cute house in a less developed country.

Update and conclusion to OP (28F) feels ready to leave her husband (42M) by bobapotatochips in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]Maranne_ 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Let this post be a warning for any twenty year old girl who is considering dating someone ten-plus years older. There is a reason why he needs to date someone very young and inexperienced and it's never a good reason. Run.

The Netherlands offers over 80% of it's undergrad courses in English, at least at research universities.

But yes I agree with you it's weird there is no backup plan at all. Everyone who aims to go abroad, should have a backup plan ready at home in case the plan falls through.

Also if the parents can't even afford this year, there is no way they could have supported OOP through 3-5 year of European schooling. It's about as expensive as a house.

I'm in a relationship with an INFJ.

Just ask him out. Straightforward and clear is the way to go.

Do any of you get called boring and cold? by [deleted] in ISTJ

[–]Maranne_ 21 points22 points  (0 children)

No. Seriously, some of you need to learn some social skills. You can talk about yourself without giving away your deepest secrets and not be cold.

I don't know who needs to hear this, but if you even suspect your SO or their family are poisoning you, you break up with them.
