None of this is receipted. In the near future, the graduation cost and licensure examination ...
I'm aware of the low pass rate and on the Nursing thread have posted details about registration requirements for nurses wishing to work in the UK; even if they graduate they need to work a full year in Philippine hospital(s) first.
I've enjoyed learning from, and contributing to, the forum, and been reluctant until now to share my situation here. However, I've already said others have privately voiced their concerns By nature I'm compassionate
But you have all helped me decide : the vicious circle of giving more and more HAS to end, and I owe nothing more to someone I haven't met I really DO want to re visit the Philippines after many years' absence (President Marcos has long since gone) and it's suddenly become affordable


Alan, as i've said b4 i've done the same thing as you..

how did your g/f survive before she met you online Alan ?

why does she need you to pay for most if not all her bills now ?

take it one step at a time, your g/f has not even graduated yet, and will probably need time to revise for the PRC exam ( in nov?) like i said that should only cost 600php? so keep hold of your money until she really needs it.

it's always possible you're being scammed, more likely your being 'used' a bit ( as i think my misses did to me ) your g/f has gone from relying on someone else (parents???) or had to work to get herself thru uni, and now you've come along and everything is paid for her (i'm sure you've told her you use to be a doc and well she thinks your )

like everyone else has said, go and met the lady asap.

also be careful, don't accuse her of anything( not without evidence), a few times, i could have, nearly did accuse the misses of taking the , but i didn't and when i finally met her, and years later, I know i was never scammed by her, but maybe 'used' a bit

goodluck. and go and see her
