Python is a good choice and the syntax is simpler to grasp compared to some other languages. Whether you're going to build systems, mobile apps, etc It might also be good to get a grasp of HTML/CSS and JavaScript. Codecademy.com & freecodecamp.com would help you.

No worries. You can also make key stakeholders in the project know that your Database and its Tables & Fields are subject to change till data migration is complete and remember to mention that this might affect deadlines eventually. Good luck

Thanks very much

Your welcome. Well you need to know the features that would not be needed so such fields can be left out of your new Database schema. If management is not cooperative you can ask the people that use this application on a daily basis. Infact interviewing users helps a lot when designing databases from an old application.

If management and users are not cooperative, my brother you might have to move on because at the end of the day when issues arise you will be the first person the blame falls on so be careful.

If you are going to migrate the old database to the new one, you need access to the old database. Maybe the customer is trying to avoid a copy/paste situation so he wants you to create your own database design first.

As long as you can use the application though and you have a good idea of how it works, you can create your own Tables with corresponding fields/records even though it might not be exactly the same.

When it's time to migrate the old database, you can export old database to excel then map excel columns to columns in your new database.

Very well written. You come across as someone that has read a lot of romantic books and stuff. Well versed in these kinda topics. Weh done ma

I was on course to ignore the belligerent mentions from guys; but since you played the GE card, you've successfully pushed my buttons.

The Op says he's not a good caller. I don't think there's anything wrong with that in particular (mostly because I'm so terrible at that as well) But then he says he's not perturbed that she told him it's over; and before that he told her that she could end it if she won't accept him for who he is. You might think that's proper and self-evident, but it's in fact a very careless statement to make; people make compromises for their loved ones all the time, but the OP seems to have given off the vibe (even to his girlfriend as he has here) that the relationship wasn't of much value to him and didn't deserve any adjustments on his part. So, in my opinion, the problem isn't that he's a bad-caller but that he doesn't even love his girl to begin with. Why would he stress himself?

A lot of commenters are wondering how a person could squeeze out three calls to their girlfriend/boyfriend from their "busy" day. (WTH). Once in the morning, as you wake up; once before bed; and over lunch (that is if your day is so tightly structured that you have to schedule it properly). But, people who really mean to call, make it organic: to get her opinion over an argument you are having with a co-worker; to help you choose what brand of an item to buy in traffic; to find out if she's okay after you hear unsettling news from the state she lives in. It's possible. If you don't consider it necessary now then...........I wish you love in your life.

Now, to your grouse. This is not about entitlement it's rather about reciprocation. People have different ways of expressing love, and in a new(ish) relationship, there is often that period of 'storming' where people learn each other's love languages. It's not uncommon to go by what you're familiar with in the meantime, while you're figuring it out. If a girl is used to expressing her affection with frequent calls, she would interpret the Ops behavior as extremely cold. He already said she's financially self-sufficient, so he may not even be giving her the occasional gift to tell her she's on his mind. Well, it's obvious now that he didn't care for her; but if he did, it would have been up to him to show her how he expresses his affection. And she, in turn, would have learnt to trust it.

Love this, very mature advise

Dear op wateva this will mean to u.
I for one don't emulate or respect couples that haz had it rosy, i mean it makes its easy enof to stay married.
I salute couples that have bin broken, squeezed, ridiculed and judged by others, trust me nothing can pull them down again.
U can't claim to love someone if u cant forgive the dirtiest of secret or wrong, in short u shud give them that free rent in your head.. life iz easy don't make it complicated in your head.
Will u b hurt? Yes, will u go crazy? Yes, would u feel blah blah yes... but move on from it, dare to love even more.
I mean u ain't a juju that shouldnt be wronged , even God
get wronged on a daily. And how ever little or big the matter is, is just exactly how u make of it.
No one is a monster and no one is overlyholy, the fact that some pple handle certain things(temptation) beta than others don't qualify them for a judge post.
Except its already a habit or there are other factors not in place in the relationship , I don't c any big deal here, cos its not enof to b one in my head, that is what i have made of it.
P.s what she has done is reallyyy still very wrong, and any action should be based her attitude towards how u feel. Oya lemme run along

Naija police don bring out suspect cut am deal telling him to confess. I don't have an ounce of belief in our NPF. I can almost swear this guy had nothing to do with it.

OP sorry to hear your situation, it really can be depressing. First off I think you need to distance yourself from her, just get some alone time to think cos you're the only one that knows where the shoe really hurts. In other to make good decisions you need a clear head.
You need to also find a distraction, a positive one like work. If you have a job that you like or a side job that you like just try to focus on that.
You also need friends you can share this with over a drink and find a way to laugh about it, most of us guys have cheated or slept with girls that had bf's so don't kill yourself over it. What doesn't kill you only makes you stronger. Girls face this kinda situation all the time.
Finally if you're not planning to forgive her, find a babe that would serve as a distraction some1 that makes you calm down and makes you laugh. Those girls you've been pushing away, you might need 1 of them right now. Good luck
