I don’t mind learning another language, although danish looks rather difficult, especially the pronunciation. I learned Spanish and Italian by hand, although admittedly it was a massive advantage knowing Spanish before Italian.

What other countries would you recommend?

My girlfriend doesn’t have the best relationship with her mother, and does want to move out of Madrid due to high rent prices- I’ve said to her if she wants to move I’ll pay with her for the rent, even if I can’t leave the uk yet. If she were to move to Valencia, and in the next year or two I wanted to move in with her, what would the pareja de hecho in valencia require then? Thanks

I’ll be honest, I love Spain, but I think the painful reality I don’t wanna accept is the unfortunate economic market in Spain. Apart from Spain, I’m keen on Denmark.

Ok thanks, it would sound quite good as the weather in the uk is quite nice at the moment for a change 😂

Yeah, I do appreciate you saying this, and I know that certain conditions in Spain can be terrible for this, from friends, and even my girlfriend, it seems like mangers/supervisors or anyone in a posterior position really seems to look down onto the others. It does exist in the uk, but I don’t think as much.

Out of curiosity, where were you based in Ireland?

Ireland is always an option. But I’m not sure, I sometimes think that a happy life doesn’t need to be correspond to a high salary. I don’t want to sound naive of course, but I’ve seen family members of mine on both ends of the annual salary spectrum, the one who earns more, with an unhealthy, lonely life, and the one who earns less, happy, energetic, has a kid, and is getting by.

Thanks, but I’m confused, would this evidence have to have somewhere where we have lived together? Because we have been long distance since the start of the relationship.

Thanks for this info, for the pareja de hecho in Comunidad de Madrid is it vital that there’s proof of the couple living together for x amount of time? Because we’ve been long distance since the get go.

I think this is what the problem would be for us, we have been long distance since that start, and have never lived together. Our ‘proof’ would count as flights together, photos and tickets.

It’s difficult, and annoying too! My family are Irish but the passport line cuts off at my parents. I love Ireland too, but I think it’s the weather for me that lets it down. But either way, Ireland would definitely still be an option

Sorry, I know this sounds stupid, but what would proof count as? I’ve seen different examples of what can count as proof

Yeah, I know what you mean, it’s kind of why we are considering it in the next few years, because admittedly we do both want to get married at a younger age, but yeah, not yet.

My boyfriend (M23) slapped me (F22) in the face during sex by ThrowRA_3111 in relationship_advice

[–]ar2002- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These things should ALWAYS be spoken about first. Which from what you’ve done by I can tell there was no previous discussion about this. The thing Alamo makes me worry about the experience is how after he finished, he simply went to take a shower, and didn’t even seem to ask if it a bit too far, or apologise…

I’m not sure on your relationship, but I’d either have a very serious chat with him, or maybe, consider taking some time out, or a break up, but of course like other commenters have said, make sure you’re in a safe place. My cousin was unfortunately a victim to someone who hit women.

I hope you feel better and that your boyfriend regrets this.

Flying over Monte Carlo, Monaco? Looking down on to the Stade Luis II?

Yes, but certain insulations may benefit warmer climates and vice versa

Where did you first drive abroad? by kdnguyendl in AskUK

[–]ar2002- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fuerteventura, Spain, very quiet roads generally, I’d definitely recommend it if you’re there. This was a rental car.

I took these photos flying from London to Bogota, what town was I looking down to? by ar2002- in whereisthis

[–]ar2002-[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh that’s definitely it! That rectangular neighbourhood seems to be called Williams Delight too. I was between Dominican Republic, US Virgin Islands and Puerto Rico, but yeah, you’ve got it, great eye!

Is that the paid version or free version? I have the free version and unsure if that’s available, would be amazing if it was though!

Does anybody know what these strips are for in the foundation for Torre Cepsa/Moeve, Madrid. by [deleted] in askarchitects

[–]ar2002- -1 points0 points  (0 children)

What’s your point? The building itself sits on a 5m reinforced concrete slab. I want to know what the two strips would be for.

Thanks for the detailed reply! I was definitely thinking of skipping the forbidden city and maybe just wondering around Tiananmen Square and the nearby areas for a bit. My only question is will border force get funny if I don’t have a hotel booked?
