Where abouts are you from, I’m packing my suitcase now

I am so jealous, you guys sound so cool..

And I’d love to be a DJ but I’m so shite with computers, I’m literally as bad as my grandad with them

Yeah when I told people that it was a Labrador they were so in shock and thought I must have provoked it!!

Lol, you're welcome to join us!

I'm from Poland originally but now I live in Massachusetts.
You sound pretty cool yourself!

Lol, you should have seen my grandfather with his iPhone!

People are always shocked that I was bitten by a Golden and a Border Collie too! Dog attacks aren't always provoked, sometimes there are just aggressive dogs. We get a lot of aggressive dogs where I work. I just tell them I'm not afraid of them though. Dogs are probably the only thing I'm not afraid of, lol!

Get my bed set up then, I’ll bring a dog or two

In the states?

Well dogs can tell if you’re afraid can’t they?

Of course

Yes, in the States.

Where are you from?

Dogs can tell if you're afraid, it's always best to approach dogs with confidence. If you're fearful, they're going to sense it and they may attack or react out of fear.

Great! See you soon!

I’m from Yorkshire in England. I’ve been to the states for 2 summers in a row now and went one Christmas. I go to Pennsylvania, New Jersey and New York. How far away from you is that?

I think that’s the same for horses

I've always wanted to go to England!

Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and New York are all about four to six hours away from me. My husband is from New York!

I’ve never understood why people want to come to England, we really don’t have much to offer at all..

Quite far then.. aw that’s cool, I had the nicest burger of my life in New York, and nothing has compared with it since!

Haha, I think the same thing about the United States! Like our country is a mess right now, why would anyone want to come here? Lol!
I'd rather be here in America than back in Poland though at the moment, because at least in America it's legal for my husband and I to be married

The burgers in New York are amazing!! I was in New York with my husband for a family thing last month and we stopped at a diner, and I got this burger with bacon, cheddar, onions, and a fried egg on it and it was probably the best burger I've ever had!!

Well America is a lot warmer than England, like.... so much warmer. You can get a tan there. You have good food! You have so many different states which are all so culturally different. And it’s just got a good vibe about it with the ‘American Dream’

I’ve never been to Poland, never really thought about going there, is it nice? And did you move after meeting your husband or before?

What do you think to five guys?

The part of America I live in has been very cold lately, lol! It was 12 degrees Fahrenheit today!

Some parts of America are very warm though. The State I live in has warm summers and cold winters.
I do get tan in the summer!

The States are all very culturally different, that's very true. Some areas have friendlier people than others too. There's a lot of diversity here, which is a good thing!

Poland is a beautiful country, but I don't agree with the current political climate there and I feel like I'm much better off in America. I moved to America when I was very young and I met my husband when we were in college.

Omg, I was just at Five Guys earlier today! I should post a pic of my leftover burger lol. I love Five Guys. It's a chain restaurant so we have them all over the place here.

I hate the cold so much I’d rather not leave the house at all when it’s cold or snowing.. our winters aren’t really that cold, especially compared to yours! But our summers aren’t too warm, we probably have 3 days of summer a year.. the rest of the time it just rains

Yeah the part of England that I live in isn’t very diverse at all... and basically 99.9% of the population is white British, I went to a residential about 50 miles away from where I live and honestly, I saw so many types of ethnic origins that I’d never seen before.. it was amazing how my area had caused me to be so ignorant until then

Aw that’s so cute, you’ve been together a long time then! Does your family live in America or Poland?

Honestly, I crave five guys burgers every day! We barely have any over here and the nearest one is probably 40 miles away! But wow... it’s unreal. I always get the little cheeseburger, extra cheese, mayo, bbq sauce and hot sauce and Cajun spices chips/fries.. AMAZING

I hate the cold so much too!

Today I was walking my dogs with two coats, two scarves, sweatpants and leather gloves on! I don't like to leave the house when it's cold either and snow makes me sad. I would rather live in Hawaii or Australia or something, somewhere that it's really hot outside all the time!
Oh no, I can't imagine having a cold summer!

I don't like it when it rains either.

The city my husband and I used to live in before we got married was really diverse, and the grad school I'm studying at is mostly minority population and very diverse as well. Unfortunately the town we moved to after we got married is not very diverse and is mostly white people too. My husband is from Manhattan in New York and he didn't really know a lot about other cultures or diversity either until he went to college.
I went to a residential boarding school when I was in high school, about ten years ago. I met a lot of different people from many different ethnic backgrounds, and my college was pretty diverse too. My grad school is also very diverse, like I said.

We've been together for a long time!

We actually just got married in November but we've known each other since 2012. My husband's name is Dave, you'll notice me talking about him a lot on here lol. He's wonderful. He's a sweet, sassy, funny, adorable guy with a lot of personality and attitude- and big blue eyes and amazing curves! Lol

He's my everything.

Omg, I'm almost drooling over the description of that burger! Lol. If I had a hearts-for-eyes emoji on here I would use it for that burger lol. I'm crazy about burgers. I always get a bacon cheeseburger! Dave always gets two double bacon cheeseburgers when we go to Five Guys and other burger places and I'm like "How can you eat those things?!" Lol.

Yeah everyone gets so excited about snow.. I like watching it from the window.. while I’m in bed.. with the heating on.. as soon as I go outside I just want to cry. One time, when I was drunk, I just stood still and cried because it was that cold...until my boyfriend at the time picked me up and carried me home embarrassing but I really don’t like it. Yeah I’d love somewhere that’s always hot, all year round, how perfect would that be?!

England isn’t so cold in summer that you’ll need a coat or anything but it’s not warm enough to want to strip down to your underwear

Omg!! Congratulations!! I bet you enjoy calling him your husband now? From what you’ve already said he sounds like the perfect guy for you, but if you want to share, just let me know!

Omg I could definitely have a bacon cheese burger right now, with so much cheese!
What’s your favourite food?

Hahaha, that sounds exactly like how I react to snow!

I don't understand why people get so excited about it either. When it's cold outside I just want to burst into tears lol.
I love when my husband carries me! I'm 5'4" and 115 pounds (I'm so short for a guy lol) and he's 6'8" and 260 pounds so it's really easy for him to just carry me around on his back lol.

Lol, I love weather that "makes you want to strip down to your underwear!"

That's hilarious lmao and accurate!

Thank you!!

I do love calling him my husband and he is the perfect guy for me, but we can share Dave lol, I don't think he would mind!

My favorite food is... burgers and bacon!

I try not to eat a lot of red meat because I'm really into fitness and weight lifting and stuff. But red meat is my favorite. I would take a burger over a salad any day lol.

What is your favorite food?

Did you find one that was right for you?

Oh yes! At least I think so. So far so good anyway. There doesn't seem to be any kind of side effect and I've been on this Fluoxetine for a few months now. I don't know much about meds. @Concernedgal is the lady on here who is a dab hand at medical knowledge. I do know there are many types of different meds that you can try though and it just means trying them to find what is best for you. But you mustn't let your doctor fob you off. Tell him how you are feeling and the effects. It is your right to get meds that will help, not hinder.

I’d love to play the piano but I’m just too clumsy

For sure no one is too clumsy to play the piano. Why not get yourself a small electric keyboard and give yourself some lessons? If you can type, you can play the piano. It's good exercise for the fingers too!
