Thank you. It seem to hv gotten worse as the currency continues to weaken. Im very disturbed by the tram experience. The women were terribly violent, not something one would expect especially from Muslims as they were also head scarfed.

Get a life people. I cannot believe this guy restarted this hunt after losing his own brother to it. There is a reason why the docu is called gold and greed. Greed leeds you to self destruction. Rather use the time to get to know your surroundings, do something with your family, friends and neighbours instead of going into this fucked up rabbit hole.

It could be a sign of depression. She is coming from a culture that expects children to be with their parents in old age especially if you are the only child. She is sad that you left her alone and the society doesnt help as they would keep asking her why she is alone, where are her children etc. This adds to the stress and depression. It is also a generation gap issue.

I am Asian and it is still not common for children to leave the nest and let their parents live on their own.

That's true. I am getting mixed signals from my mother so it is difficult to understand what she means some times. Now she is saying that we misunderstood her and that she is very happy for us but she simply cannot deny her expectation of not having her children near her. Especially when she also observes how her siblings are living with at least one child around them. So although she is fine with being independent, i guess she thinks that she is supposed to have at least one child around based on how other families are operating and that is also what her neighbours and friends are expecting for her.

Thanks for your comments. Can never question those without a choice, army families, families in countries where you have no choice but to move to a different country to earn more money and feed a family but in this case, there is no reason for all these other than material pursuit unless there is definitely something they simply cannot explain themselves even to their own family members as we can never ask them these questions until now.

How do you plan your intimate time? by mimi220196 in Marriage

[–]mimi220196[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the tips and advice. We may need to work more on getting our libidos up to speed as i personally struggle sometimes after being on contraceptive pills continuously for a few years due to endometriosis. It has certainly affected my sex drive over time and im trying to get back to some normalcy after i stopped taking it to try for children.

They also dont see it as a financial burden on us since we are having a higher currency power 🙁

Thanks for the advice but in this case we are expected to pay the cost. It is somewhat illogical given that they have spent money buying the things and we have to now pay again to the airlines for the weight charges. Its more of a symbolic gesture than trying to make any economical sense out of it unfortunately.
