You're not the first to get bored after arriving here Others on here have said the same. It's just an adjustment period and a matter of finding things to do and keeping your mind occupied.

[cherrysorra]

yes i know nothing to do here dont know whats gonna happened nxt

Surely your partner should satisfy your doubts as one assumes he's gone to all the effort of getting a visa organised and you over to the UK

Don't take this the wrong way but I'd shake him up

Hi Cherry, welcome to the forum and the UK!

I guess it hard at first coming to a new country, keep your patience your local job center is a good place to start when you are allowed to work here, ask to speak to one of the advisers there they should be able to help.
Before then you can make sure you have a good up to date CV and know how to write a good polite application letter, it increases your chances of getting a job greatly.

Lots of job vacancies in the local papers, newsagents windows and by word of mouth. Looking for a job is a job itself sometimes.

if you cant work yet maybe you can take a part time class some are free or inexpensive or a sports or hobby club, even your local church all are good ways of making new friends

welcome che,
Reading between the lines does your partner want you to work,or does he wants you to stay at home,did i read somewhere you partner was on benefits,your partner should be helping you make friends ,maybe meet other Filipinos in the area,I hope your partners not a control freak,heard many stories where partner dont give you no money cant have friends drive etc,wants a maid not a wife,sorry if i sound negative. The first thing when my wife came to Australia on a 3 month visitors visa so she could get used to my place introduced her to other Filipinos and my friends give her some spending money,
