What are you like with text/sms messages?

[Sim11UK]

Thanks, I sent her a text message about 30 minutes ago saying that I had been worried about her and asking her to just let me know everything is ok.

I hope you hear something soon, it's not a nice situation.
Have you made any plans, to visit her at all? If you haven't, you need to move heaven & earth, to do so.

I know you've mentioned money being tight, but to be honest, it is for most of us...I'm certainly struggling.

Can you sell something?...do a few carboot sales? or something or other that will bring in enough money, to get out there.
We are a long way from the Philippines, it's hard for these girls to take us seriously, if we don't make plans to visit them, they wont wait forever.

My now wife, didn't really believe I was ever going to visit her, until I waved my plane ticket in front of her.

I really want things to work out for you.

Thanks Not made plans yet, but am trying to do things so that I can. Was kind of frustrating with the courier and customs/VAT charges for the parcel that I sent her for Birthday and Christmas as with what I had spent on those and the presents I could have flown to see her (would still have needed somewhere to stay though & spending money though)!

I've spent a lot of spare time over the last few weeks taking photos, writing ads and putting stuff up for sale such as car parts, clothes I've not worn, some new women's clothes (that I had bought for an ex when I was still with her ready for Christmas & her Birthday, then she disappeared!), books, dvd's and sorting out lots of magazines. Some of the magazines I will throw, some I will see if anyone is interested in a few years of certain ones, if not then throw and some I will keep. Not sure about boot sales as once I went, I had all brand new clothes etc at great prices and sold £3 worth, so with the table costing £11, I was £8 down and had wasted several hours & effort! Seems the more rubbish the things you have for sale are, the more interested people are & the more you sell!

At the moment, I'm trying to clear my spare bedroom, so I can knock-out the built-in wardrobe and then decorate it, then I can move into there and then get a lodger into the bedroom that I'm in now. I also have to finish my bathroom and have other decorating and furniture needed. Am looking for another job as well.

Good for you Tim

My first 2 trips were paid for by selling stuff on ebay.

Sounds like you doing the right things, very true that you need to try your hardest to go out to see your mahal. From first meeting the missus in Jan 04 i went out to meet her in june the same year but had made the decision back in April if i recall correctly. Luckily I was able to afford this but it is vital to go as early as possibly you can for both of you.

Once out there you can live very cheaply and people on here will help in any way they can with advice and local knowledge.
Its probably the best way to be as well not living like a king and setting high standards.
Ask any Lady on here and they just want there Mahal with them and a trip is nice wheter its Jolibee or la de da resturant. If it does matter to a lady how much is spent then walk away quickly as you will have problems ahead.
