RomanceRe: I Love My Colleague But She Has A Boyfriend by dirolad(m): 9:22pm On Aug 21, 2023
Poten111:
I have fallen in love with my colleague. She has been so helpful and close to me. We hangout a lot and she creates time for me. She dots me. She is always in a hurry to help and support. If i have a complaint she scampers to look for solution. She buys me lunch and surprises me with snacks and gifts.

I a have a place to go and I impromptu tell her. She volunteers to drive me there. She has a car and I don't. E speak at length every day. Morning and night.

In all this, I reciprocate the gestures. I show her love and respect.

After about a year. I came to the conclusion that I want to date her against my principle of dating colleagues. We once lodged in a hotel where i made my intentions clear. She said she was in a relationship. A distant one but the guy is ready to marry her. He has met her parents.

I know women love to keep their options open to avoid disappointment but i felt betrayed because how is she making out time for me.

I have re-emphasized my interest on two more occasions. She is thinking about it. I feel she wants to go ahead with the marriage plans.

So i have moved on. Cut off consistent communications with her. I rarely respond to her message especially if they are not work related. I have subtly told her that we cannot be having a subtle affair.

She doesn't seem to keep off. She has maintained her fake interest in me.

What do i do?
grab her from the waist when you are alone together and satisfy her. She can't leave her man but let you slide in. Know your boundaries

So, yesterday, 8th of May, 2023, I finally decided to let go of someone I've made an habit. It's been over six years I met her.

We've been very good friends and kind to each other in our ways. The thing is, I fell in love with her deeply, and she said she doesn't feel the same towards me. We talk for hours. The flow was too smooth. We understand each other to a great level. I still find it difficult to believe she didn't feel a thing for me.

I decided to kill my feelings for her and keep her as a friend. It didn't just work.

I recently knew she's now in a relationship with someone else. She told me.

And I can no longer remain friends with her.

So, I finally decided to let go of someone I've made an habit. I needed to.

I'm saying this here, maybe the pain will go out a little bit.


I feel so much pains. Farewell, girl. I'd miss you. Let me wish you well, from afar.

Do know that Daddy wish you well always, Daddy's baby girl.

We meet to part...
you don't become friends with whom you loved from the jump. You must have spent a lot of time and attention and your d!ck was never part of her life. I hope you are emotionally capable to move, always remind yourself why she was never useful and won't still be, with that, you will let her be.

If a human being was making money from something, the human will focus on making money by using the skill. The person wouldn't have time to teach people he doesn't know from Adam.


If someone you've not known before offers to teach you how to make money for a fee, be rest assured that the money the person is making is the fee you pay for tutorials.

Hello brothers, i need an advise. I currently live in Yankee though i never get my pali. I met this single mother also a Nigerian who is a divorcee. She really helped me settle in with gifts and everything but recently anytime i try to bring up the issue of settling down, she always brings up one excuse or the other and I am beginning to fall for deeply for her.

Please how do i gain control back.
she will never settle down with you because she will never be your option if you are have the almighty thing she could offer "Pali". You too know you will see are not from love perspective but age and other things, you will be irritated. Someone must have won her in that game previously and used her for what she stands for "Settling down in U.S". Please impregnate a young lady and process your stay differently or through other route. She will waste your time.

you have to reapply with the appropriate document. The judicial system works only if you are eligible and qualify for it including it wasn't your fault but the other party. This refusal was your fault not the other way. Save yourself time and money.

Hello everyone,

My mum was refused, a visit visa in 1995( first ever refusal) She is a retiree, she retired in 2019 and was not paid her pension until mid 2022. Last year she applied to attend my brother’s graduation but was denied the visa because she has not received her pension. She stated in her application last year, that her daughter was going to sponsor her trip.

Last year, the fed govt paid her pension and we decided she apply again this year. My brother got his tier 2 visa and also sent all his supporting documents.

She was refused again on the basis that she has large deposits in her account. The large sum is her pension lump sum payments that the govt paid, which we explained in a cover letter and also attached the pension documents and bank statement highlighting the deposits.

They also mentioned inconsistent monthly spending- we tried to calculate her monthly expenses and arrived at that figure. However, that cannot be accurate because sometimes, she spend more than 150k monthly, buying medications and a few other things that is just one time purchases. We give her monthly income( money from family) and also the monthly pension stipend she receives from the govt and calculated all of this, that’s how we arrived at yearly income.

Additionally, the Visa officer mentioned 3 refusals and she has just 2 ( the one in 1995 and the one last year).

I have attached the refusals, the one for last year and the most recent one this year. Please attached. I am so pained and I feel like she should reapply because the reasons for refusal is just something else. How soon do you think she should reapply and what do you all think we should have done better.

Please what do you all think? I would appreciate the feedback.

Apologies for the long write up. Thank you all!
keep her incomes "specific and accurate" for 6months either pensions or from Family.

Keep the monthly outgoing funds "specific or ranging the declared" if possible.

Explain every income sources including the pensions in a cover letter.

Keep the travel budget reasonable.

I was refused a visa in 2021 and I lost my US student visa refusal letter. It is required for a student visa application I’m making to the UK, I was given a conditional offer to the school pending when I send the letter across. I have explained in a letter that I have lost the letter and stated the reason for my denial (home ties), but they’re still insisting on the letter, what do I do please?
visit the U.S.A embassy and wait for the people that's going for an interview to receive thier results. Beg Anybody refused under the 214B blue paper to please help you with the slip, nobody is refused with thier name on it. Send the document to the School that's requesting it.

LittleBigDick:
My worst fear came true.
My ex came crawling back after I started getting serious with another girl.
We broke up 7 months ago. We'd been together since uni. I'm 25, she's 23. She said she needed some space and wasn't sure we would work out long term. I tried to fight her on it for two weeks but eventually gave her the breakup and went ghost mode

First couple of months were rough but I applied myself at the gym and other things and when I was feeling better about my physique made a Bumble account just to gain some self-esteem back and also take my mind off her. Met this girl about 2 months ago and we've been fwb since then. We Bleep every week and recently we've been talking about making things serious. I confess I'm starting to become infatuated with this girl, and she's already head over heels for me.

The problem is that I still love my ex, way more than this new girl. She reached out today saying she regrets breaking up with me, she was depressed and got some therapy and realized I'm all she wants. She says she went on a few dates but "didn't have sex or even kiss any of them."

She said I could check her phone if I want to. Obviously she could have just deleted any proof but I'm inclined to believe her considering she was very prudish when we were together and also I was the one that disvirgined her

The problem is I don't know whether I stick to this new babe or accept my ex back
it depends on the value she's adding to your life, if none and it's just love, please transfer it to who accepted you after.

Thank you very much for your response. Do you mean I should opt for administrative review or what?... It's not a microfinance bank it's an investment Institution.
If you can continue receiving lectures pending the time you get your visa sorted through AR with the school knowledge, fine. Or beta still, lobby for extension or request new CAS for the next entry period. Better still, request for the bank and the school to contact the UKVI on your behalf just like this link below. It took less than a week.

unless the ECO didn't verify it, if he/she does check, then they are refusing that your business is not active and trading or generating profit.

Hello!

I apologize for disturbing you, unauthorized.

Firstly, I intend to apply for a tourist UK Visa.

Previous Travel History: Morocco (Sticker Visa), Lebanon, Ivory Coast, Ghana, Togo and Benin. (Pending SA visa)

2. I work as a Freelancer meaning self-employed however I have my "brand/company" ID card but the business is not registered.

3. I have 2 bank accounts: 1 for my day to day activities (the balance is always low) and the second is primarily for savings (with about 10M) as the closing balance.

4. There's no pay slip nor any note in my transactions stating a "salary". Always, I change USD and I get the exchange value normally in naira via exchangers.


With all I've said above, do you think I have a chance? Or I shouldn't even bother?


PS: I want to do this because I've been previously denied A US visa hence I want to visit a Tier 1 country before trying the USA visa again.
you stand a chance, as long as you can prove you are going to leave.

'If you are intending to visit the UK you will need to show that you are a genuine visitor who is coming to the UK to undertake a permitted activity, that you will leave at the end of your visit and that you have sufficient funds to cover all reasonable costs in relation to your visit.

It is recommended that you provide information about your circumstances in your home country and details of the activity that you will be doing in the UK.

• business registration documents or recent invoices that confirm on-going self-employment'…

So you will need a business registration document for your self-employment and recent invoices and/or recent Tax Document to show you are trading and earning profit from your business. Most payment platforms or paying platforms issues receipt/Payslip for every transaction as evidence for future references. This is just one part of the consideration.

Hello Guys, i Have a question. Please dont quote me, else the site will ban you.

You can just type my moniker in your reply.

I visited the UK for 20 days and i am back to Nigeria. I still have about 3 months valid visa left.

I want to apply for a visit around august, but i want to do it early enough.

Can i apply now against august with the valid 3 months visa i have, or should i wait till it expires?

Also, Some people are saying i have to apply for another 6 months, before i can apply for 2 years. Can i apply for 2 years Visa straight after the first 6 months, or must i apply for another 6 months?

Waiting for response. Thanks
if you want to visit in August, you are advisable to apply nothing more than 3months prior to your travel date. I.e you can apply only around May/June upward, and this current visa could have expired by that time (May/June).

Yes. You can apply for 2yrs+ since you are already having a good travel history with them.

Thanks for the contributions so far, amount declared as spending is 100k, I will attach a copy of the bank statement, first, the Eco claimed I had only 5 salary credits if you count you will see 6, i ticked the salaries with pink, secondly, he said there was a deposit on 02/06/2022, whereas I didn't submit a statement for the month of June, maybe he asked from the bank, even if he did I don't have a deposit on that day mentioned. I think he was complaining about my opening balance i don't think that should be his problem if I had 500k I might decide to save some of my salaries and also decide to spend some and save 500k like it was.



The only error I can find on the account is on the 14th of July someone credited and debited my account within 2 mins I believe it was a transaction done by mistake by the bank and I address it on my cover letter.

Now if you look at the credits there is no other credit aside from interest from the bank and the above-mentioned.
sorry for my wrong analysis. I hope you are able to reconstruct your application more better from other people's discovery.

Good evening house finally the decisions came today and all were refused, I think the UK embassy is presently tired of granting visitors visas so I will take a break here till they are willing again, but I will still like to share the refusal notes maybe few people can use it to work towards their own applications afterward, and if there is any advise to share to enable us to change status when applying in future.
your opening balance made large portion of your closing balance and if your monthly disposable income is been added properly, you should be having more balance than the opening balance. I.e you are probably spending more than declared and you are leaving fewer amounts of your monthly salary in addition to the opening balance which makes your opening balance more.

It's not expected of a fixed salary income earner to have scattered or flexible income. So other credits needs explanation. The ECO didn't just State it straight that you are spending more than declared to have your opening balance making almost majority of the closing balance. The salary income is still of the previous application which the previous ECO complained about spending 2 months disposable income, the salary hasn't increased and you intend sponsoring 2 people again under same financial condition without assistance, it wasn't listed as reason for refusal but it's likely the reason is repeated if you ain't getting support or positive changes in financial condition.

Assuming your disposable income adds up as stated and your travel budget is not questionable, you are on the winning side because your employment tie is solid.
