I think you need a new girlfriend.

This sounds like hard work to me....and it's supposed to be the best bit !

Yep, this was exact initial reaction. But you how it is. You get attached. I know this girl isn't a hardened user or cheat. She is only 19. In fact, that may be half the problem here. Too young and lacking in maturity. Along with her mate.

Have to agree with Graham unless of course you are already loved up.

Moral of the story, pick more wisely

I couldn't have got much unlucky really. She was simply a nice shop assistant. I got talking to her and liked her. And that was that. I couldn't have possibly imagined this.

For sure I'm not the best person to be giving relationship advice, but I've really learnt a lot since going to the Phils and most importantly since being a member on this forum.
But I say this is too high maintenance.

Paul, I read your earlier posting on relationships in Phils and Hong Kong and your advice to others, you should know better. The words "Physician, heal thyself" come to mind.

Think very carefully about you really want out of this.......if anything.

No offence intended Paul, even though the way I put the words down may seem so.

It's easy to out now than later unless your already 'gone'

Gone mate, completely gone.

And yeah, just illustrates the point I was making on the potential hassles here as compared with somewhere like Hong Kong. But really, I was going to be here for a time and I was single and I find it is actually harder *not* to get involved here in that circumstance!

Anyway, I'm going to drop the bomb later and see how she reacts.
