i met a south african guy over there that left his girlfriend. they tried the long distance thing and it worked out. they were engaged as soon as he got back.
but, then you drop the dad thing. sounds like she is mooching and is trying to escape her situation.
then again, what do i know?
little persepctive, thanks a lot for your input. It really is helpful as I am trying to figure all of this out.
But I have a few more questions. How easy or difficult is it to go teach abroad. If she decides to do this, does she have to get selected or will they pretty much take anyone?
i taught in korea. super high demand. really easy to get a job. just be a native english speaker and have college degree. oh yeah no criminal background.
btw, my jaw hit the floor when you said your girlfriend's dad lives with you. i have never heard of anything like that. sounds like sitcom material. i can't imagine the shame he feels every day. no offense intended.
