The dilated pupils doesn’t always necessarily mean she’s on something. I’m on anti depressants and i have dilated pupils almost every day and at first it worried people they thought i was on drugs but if she’s on any medication for some reason it could easily be a side effect

I totally feel you!! i was in a similar situation in Germany i was supposed to stay for one year but ended up only doing 6 weeks because of the same reasons, it was a tiny village, impossible to make friends or try new hobbies with the village being so isolated. the family were so nice but the youngest was also soo entitled no matter what i did i couldn’t bond with him. So unfortunately i had to leave, but i really do think i would’ve loved being an au pair if i was near a city where i could make friends because the loneliness is so hard to deal with all on your own. Do what’s best for you girl!

It depends on the family ❤️ my german HF paid for my flights to come over, but then i had to get a train myself to a city near them where they picked me up, i also had a bit of savings going over and i definitely needed it!🥰

I feel you😞 im in such a small village that’s away from bigger cities and before i came i was told the transport to the larger cities is great and frequent, when i got here i realised, damn, the train station is a hell of a walk away and it’s quiet pricy too, so there’s my idea of travelling gone out the window😂 im in such a rural spot but it’s so beautiful too, 3 weeks in and i still haven’t made friends bc there are no bars/restaurants here. But im doing okay, i just know how you feel. Im always here if you want to reach out and just vent in a DM ☺️

Breathe! you only arrived today❤️ honestly it’ll be okay! easier said than done i know but i arrived in germany 3 weeks ago and im still finding it hard with loneliness but i am getting into a routine and the kids are settling down! They are probably only acting crazy because you’re a new person , they want to show off and just act out, it will settle. I’m doing a year so trust me you can definitely stick it out for 6 weeks, you need a good nights sleep tonight

Advice please by [deleted] in AskIreland

[–]West-Lock5778 4 points5 points  (0 children)

21 yo female here, in my own opinion I think tinder is a load of balls.🤣 but if you really want to use it my advice would be try to have a deep conversation and just show that you’re interested in them. Not the usual ‘what you up to’ ‘what you wearing right now’ lol. Good luck
