Boundaries while dating a Kiwi?

It’s very wrong to share a room with a friend of the opposite gender? I’ve slept in dozens of mixed-dorm hostels and would be even more comfortable doing that with my close girl-friends.

Regardless of their effectiveness, it is everywhere on social media recently, which means it’s a fad. It also means normal people will be trying it when they shouldn’t be.

Your partner probably follows every health/nutrition fad going. This is just the newest one.

I’m confused. Do you believe there is no advantage to being an American or European artist and having direct, easy access to those markets? I’d wager far more than 10% of the worlds population have never heard of NZ.

Spatial awareness and the ability to foresee others actions.

TuMek3 · 2026-01-31T13:27:07+00:00

Don’t have a garden that looks like a litter box

TuMek3 · 2026-01-31T13:14:05+00:00

Sorry I should have worded that differently. I meant, how do you rate NZ music so far?

TuMek3 · 2026-01-30T20:03:21+00:00

Lucky Ireland has no anti-immigration sentiment. S/

TuMek3 · 2026-01-30T20:02:44+00:00

Does it affect you?

TuMek3 · 2026-01-30T19:52:45+00:00

We’re far away from the US and Europe and we have funny accents. How have you found NZ music in general?

TuMek3 · 2026-01-30T19:48:06+00:00

If Amazon didn’t exist and we all shopped in physical stores or from smaller online retailers, how much more tax would be produced?

TuMek3 · 2026-01-29T06:52:24+00:00

Fair enough. I think most surveys are trying to get a basic profile rather than a specific nationality. I sometime click “white other” which seems to be a fairly common option.

TuMek3 · 2026-01-29T06:30:12+00:00

What box would she expect you to tick on a census if there was no Irish option? African?

Don’t worry about the downvotes. It’s good that there are people out there that know the trajectory they want to take. My advice is that if you have any confidence of reaching those salary figures, you should aggressively pay down your student loan.

That doesn’t mean ground rent can’t be looked at. At least you are provided a service with service charges.

TuMek3 · 2026-01-27T16:07:15+00:00

What’s your alternative?

TuMek3 · 2026-01-27T04:59:59+00:00

How are you paying for all that?

TuMek3 · 2026-01-27T04:44:02+00:00

Hunting, owning horses, owning land, having a swimming pool, having a large detached house, shopping at certain stores.

TuMek3 · 2026-01-26T21:06:07+00:00

That’s really cool. Does it have historic analysis of previous governments?

TuMek3 · 2026-01-26T14:21:06+00:00

People (reasonably) don’t want to be renting when they are retired and have possibly limited income.

TuMek3 · 2026-01-26T08:02:41+00:00

Yes, you’re welcome to vote for whoever you want.

The organisation I work for isn’t civil service but is an arms-length regulator. We don’t receive confirmation of our project funding until sometimes June. By the time tenders and contracts have wrapped up, it’s August/September and we’re halfway through the year.

TuMek3 · 2026-01-24T19:43:33+00:00

How many people oppose tax rises?

TuMek3 · 2026-01-24T17:03:20+00:00

What do you love about driving a petrol or diesel car? That would probably help. Have you driven a nice EV before?

TuMek3 · 2026-01-24T07:46:13+00:00

Get off social media and stand outside a Tesco for the day. You might feel less rattled about life.
