Living with somebody with different ethnic or religion in Poland

Quoting: Michal

I find Polish people to be very materialistic. Maybe, if Polish people are poor and live among other poor people it is not such a problem but when Polish people go overseas and see what is available and see for themselves 'how the other side lives', then that human element of 'competition' comes in to force and that is when the problems really start.

How can you find Polish second half between so many other foreigners? That what i am trying to find out living for 6 years in London. Or is possible to be with person from other country?What would be the difficulties when living with somebody with difference ethnic or religion in Poland.Would that be possible? As there might be some amount of racism in Poland?

There is a great difference. Polish women change a lot as they grow older so you must beware of these biological changes. Women can be nasty, especially once they hot forty!

Quoting: Shawn_H Menopause may be the cause. It is partly a medical cause and I think that it is also a poisening of the soul. As these Polish women see the better things in life they begin to expect everything the same themselves. I remember I worked with someone not so long ago who married a Moldovian girl. At first they would argue about little funny things like, 'should we have white or brown rice for supper' but as time went on it was 'we live in a flat but your friends have a house. Why do we not have a house too?' and 'our car is ten years old yet your friends have an almost new car, why don't we' and so on.

Thats because i love you baby and would rather sepned my time with you than earning money!! What is life all about anyway its about enjoyment not the best car or house!! Damn I want a Porsche 911. Polish girls are far less materialistic than UK birds, when i was in the Uk it was allways oh what do you do what car do you drive!! What fukin car to you drive was my question.

Yes, you may be right but materialism is a very strong vice and when Polish people 'come West' and see those 'better things in life' you try stopping them-they want everything. They become very very greedy.

Quoting: Michal They become very very greedy. not sure about that, im still stingy as hell.. i can still remember the queus for hours and hours, i think it has made me more caring about what i have and what i dont have, there are many of my friends who share this... what you must remember that in the 'west' you are inclined to purchase - the whole system culture ideology stems frm this.. mobile phones are a neccessity, ipods, this and that.. this is the work of many philosophers a few hundred years ago who put ideas in our head that this is the only life to live.. if you have this thinking then ovcourse you will do anyhting and everything to live this life in the best possible manner - hence pepsi - live life to the max.. i wouldnt say polish people are materialistic but i would say to an extent they have luxuries that they did not have b4 - same like people from other places
