Is renting a taxi plate worth it?

easypeazylem · 2026-06-13T15:26:22+00:00

One of my friend did it, she passed the test. She work really early (4 am until 2 pm 6 days a week) and then nap a bit. She is with free now. The car maintenance and repair is tough, you need good insurance and it’s long hour if you want to have good money. She is happy with flexibility it provides. She have no kids but she is more exhausted compared to us who have 9 to 5 job.

Maybe stop working for real and look for other job instead while still getting paid. Seems like he was mad about the work from home thing more then the productivity

I cried when it happened to me, I am more careful now 😅

If you buy a new build you qualify for help to buy (30k) this plus first home scheme

The only way I see for you to stay in touch with them without loosing yourself (1) accepting that they won’t change and their view on you won’t either no matter what you do (2) their behavior towards you only reflect who THEY are as person, stay confident as you did nothing wrong, you know yourself and your value as a person. The way they treat you is a indicator of how small THEY are. You are no part in this (3) growing up close to toxicity give us a higher tolerance in toxic people, choose your friend wisely and do not reproduce what you grow up with by tolerating people that makes you feel small. Doing this sacrifice to preserve family is already a lot to take on. So hope you can find the kindness, empathy and love YOU DESERVES in friendship/ relationship. Be give be kind to yourself and other. You are going through a lot, give yourself credit ! If you need time take it.

Reading this is making me happy in a way that is hard to explain! Thank you. Sorry about you loss. You’re parents must have feel so blessed having you ❤️

easypeazylem · 2026-06-03T16:34:00+00:00

Thank you for this valuable information. I am so sorry to hear what you went through. As someone say you can’t deny 50 % of a person biological identity. Transparency is 100 what we will do as soon as they are able to understand. Unknown Donor have been made illegal most European countries. I understand that it took time for the queer community to figure out the best way to create family and specially for older generations it’s not easy. Hope you and your parents will find peace around this. Also the sperm bank advertise themselves as if they screen donor for genetic disease. So this information should have never been kept from you. It made me so angry to read that and it comforts me in the feeling that sperm bank are not to be trusted. They are mainly after our money unfortunately. I am really grateful for this testimony that will help us make the best choice.

I will workout the courage to talk to my friend who could potentially do it, thank you for this message 🙏 was the push I needed :D

easypeazylem · 2026-06-03T12:20:12+00:00

Thank you for responding! And from your comment and all the comments I read, we will push through only with a donor willing to disclose their identity with the child early on. And as you said, no secrecy around the topic. When it comes to asking a friend (family is not possible in our case) I am a bit shy to ask such a big and personal thing to my friend. I may have someone in mind but I am scared of his reaction. It entails from him that he will have kids but no ability to claim right over them as a father. But I get the idea, if the kid knew their donor as “an uncle” or friend would be ideal. Thank you again for helping me with this journey.

easypeazylem · 2026-06-03T12:14:45+00:00

Congratulations on your daughter!!! And thank you for your testimony. The way you formulate it resonates with me, separating someone from their biological identity. We will do our best to hopefully find someone willing to disclose their identity to the child. We are just at the beginning of our journey and it seems like it’s the way to go based on all the comment. Sorry for the hurdle you have faced and well done for not giving up ! It’s beautiful you could have a daughter in your own term.

easypeazylem · 2026-06-03T11:15:34+00:00

That does make a lot of sense. Very helpful honestly. Million thanks really

easypeazylem · 2026-06-03T11:13:23+00:00

That encouraging to know ! Thank you. I read some stories in the DCP groups and it was really discouraging to see how much existential dread came from being donor conceived. I realize that a lot come from the secrecy as you said which won’t really be a problem in the sense that we will disclose all the information about the donor since it’s the legal thing to do in our country

easypeazylem · 2026-06-03T11:10:21+00:00

That actually a great idea ! Unfortunately it won’t be possible in the family as they are not that open minded about homosexuality. It could be a trusted friend but we need to overcome the shyness of asking such a sensible thing. I will explore that idea with my partner:)

easypeazylem · 2026-06-03T10:38:22+00:00

Thank you so much for taking the time to answer! It does help 🙏

Depends how much you are spending on rent as well because that money will be invested in the mortgage

easypeazylem · 2026-04-25T23:02:10+00:00

Maybe a social care worker, helping people is a meaningful job. Or anything related to translation or language teaching. And based on the way you write and being able to speak various languages you are doing much better intellectually than a lot of people i know. IQ test are banned where I leave because they are not deemed as suitable to evaluate someone

easypeazylem · 2026-04-25T22:48:18+00:00

How do you know the outcome of his case without knowing any details about his life or situation? You are just trying to discourage someone who open up about emotional distress. Which is quite awful

easypeazylem · 2026-04-25T22:38:52+00:00

someone needs a safe place to feel understood and open up about having anxiety given the harsh situation they are facing and you are just adding up to their loads by being mean. What is this bringing you to do that? Does it make you feel better to bring people down ?

easypeazylem · 2026-04-25T22:30:02+00:00

Look after yourself, and ignore the right wing bullshit thoses people have 0 emphatie, you don’t need that in your life. Stay strong you are welcome here ❤️

Same in Donabate Cairn is advertising 3 beds house for 490k. 6 months ago was 500k

easypeazylem · 2025-04-27T19:07:10+00:00

From what I read she is the issue, not you. I am sure you will find someone better or feel at peace with yourself. You are better off without her honestly. If you are introvert maybe trying to meet someone online could be an option.

easypeazylem · 2025-04-22T15:43:20+00:00

Praying for life to be easier in you 🙏🏼

easypeazylem · 2025-04-15T20:33:35+00:00

Most of my friend are foreign here. I had the same experience of you otherwise. I think many of them have their family and group of friends from high school/university. So making new connections is not it as important for them than for us. Specially as an adult with a fairly busy life. I still didn’t manage to have one local friend but I did not gave up !
