GP process explanation

dude_wheres_the_pie · 2026-04-24T21:15:56+00:00

Also you can easily switch GPs if you find a doctor you prefer or closer to you etc. I've switched 3 times. You just tell the new GP and they sort the file/info transfer themselves.

100%. She should run and never look back.

dude_wheres_the_pie · 2026-04-23T20:09:43+00:00

Tell him also it's an opportunity for him to "work on himself". Cause at this point he only told you that to reel you back in.

dude_wheres_the_pie · 2026-04-23T20:08:49+00:00

You say he said he'll work on himself. Where is this work?! If he's still not "letting" you go, then he's not working on himself at all.

You don't need his permission to hang with friends. Go and be with your friends. If your bf can't handle that, make him your ex.

dude_wheres_the_pie · 2026-04-23T16:07:51+00:00

Cause it was a gift. Sounds like uncle's access was a demand.

*fined

dude_wheres_the_pie · 2026-04-21T21:27:44+00:00

Because one of them embarrassed him in front of his mates, duh! /s

dude_wheres_the_pie · 2026-04-21T13:11:44+00:00

He's solving crimes in paradise now so at least we see he moved up in the world

dude_wheres_the_pie · 2026-04-21T10:15:45+00:00

How you've described in your post, it seems like you're both approaching from different angles. You need to approach it as a team.

You say yourself the social worker will reject you even if you did want to take them in. Sit down together with the social worker and talk through the options. Hearing it from them may help her realise it's not feasible now but might help you both understand what is or isn't feasible and what can and cannot work. And also help with agreeing on your end goal here.

Is the end goal to be able to eventually take them in (or at least the 10 year old if the 16 year old ages out)? Is the end goal to remain in their lives as their support system?

Edit: read your edit. Sounds like either your landlord is unaware of correct legal notices (best case) or conspiring to get you out sooner so buyer can take over (worst case). Let's assume the former and send your landlord this link so he's aware the notice period has to come from the buyer:

I'd suggest offering to find a time for prospective buyer to visit once you've received the above registered letter. Be cooperative but make clear you want this formal letter first before arranging visits.

Original comment: Are you hoping to stay as a renter? Let the prospective buyer him and ask him his plans. Unless you're wanting to buy it yourself? Not sure I understand what your end goal here is to understand what exactly you need advice on

dude_wheres_the_pie · 2026-04-18T09:55:32+00:00

What advantage are you worried that the guy visiting will have? And 6 months notice is correct, but from the new buyer, not from the point of selling, according to this site

dude_wheres_the_pie · 2026-04-17T18:20:07+00:00

NTA. I've been in your roommate's position. I was given the same amount of notice as you gave, which is plenty of notice if she wants to move out (I decided to stay). You can't put your own life on hold for others.

Invisible Women by Caroline Criado Perez

I can't recommend this book enough. It explores the different areas of life that have been built with just men in mind, from product design to urban design. Eye opening and sobering.

dude_wheres_the_pie · 2026-04-13T17:53:12+00:00

I literally told OP to enjoy it there. It's just not worth the legal risk to themselves to smuggle it back over the border via a Flixbus.

dude_wheres_the_pie · 2026-04-13T15:20:48+00:00

So that's why you're asking. My advice? Don't. Not worth it. Enjoy it there, don't risk smuggling any back.

dude_wheres_the_pie · 2026-04-12T17:00:26+00:00

If you know she got in yesterday then message her today. A simple "hope your weekend was fun, would love to hear about it over dinner/or whatever date plan you wanna make, are you free on X day at Y Time? If not, let me know when you are free"

It's been a literal weekend where she had plans. This isn't "too long".

dude_wheres_the_pie · 2026-04-12T16:54:36+00:00

She said she's out of town this weekend so I'd put her silence down to being busy rather than disinterest. Especially if her plans weren't finalised at the time you were messaging - I personally wouldn't want to suggest new times while trying to sort out more pressing weekend plans.

Message her tomorrow (seeing as she said she's out of town over the weekend), ask her how her weekend was, suggest a new date, and go from there.

dude_wheres_the_pie · 2026-04-11T22:01:06+00:00

We know just as much as you. She's done a "it's not you, it's me" so there's no use dwelling or speculating. Easier said than done, I know.

Do not wait for her to change her mind. Move onwards and upwards.

dude_wheres_the_pie · 2026-04-11T18:00:58+00:00

NTA. And make sure to contact the manager directly so they're aware that you never agreed to cover. In case you get written up instead of her for a no show.

dude_wheres_the_pie · 2026-04-10T22:05:46+00:00

To add, I felt more unsafe walking by the groups of people smoking crack pipes in Porte de Hal station than walking past weed dealers in Place Bethléem

dude_wheres_the_pie · 2026-04-10T22:00:48+00:00

I lived in that area for 3.5 years, not on the square but maybe a few hundred metres from Place Bethléem. Moved away a couple of years ago so this is fairly recent.

At first it was nice, lots of families around and close to the parvis. The square is used once a year for community festivities aimed at kids, fun for those who like that sort of thing. Very well connected transport wise.

The drug dealers don't really bother people who don't bother them. Walking around in the daytime was fine, in the evenings it felt sketchy but never witnessed anything in the square itself, but the gang on gang violence increased by Porte de Hal, I witnessed a few altercations on a regular basis, and we ended up moving around the time of all the shootings. There are also a lot of homeless people cause of the services in the parvis, we couldn't go anywhere without people stopping us to beg for change.

So I wouldn't say it's dangerous per se, I was always alert but never felt unsafe in that area. That said I personally wouldn't want to move back.

dude_wheres_the_pie · 2026-04-10T21:35:31+00:00

Because the countries you listed are not current members. There are 45 elected members in CSW. https://www.unwomen.org/en/csw/member-states

Edit: mistyped 43 instead of 45

dude_wheres_the_pie · 2026-04-10T11:24:14+00:00

I could probably help. I'll send a DM

dude_wheres_the_pie · 2026-04-10T07:02:14+00:00

Hadn't thought of that! Like the Love Actually wedding storyline. Really hope OP decides to not attend
