The OcUK Relationship Counselling and Hugs Thread

Take something basic - piano lessons. From a quick Google they cost £15-30/hr. Hopefully you'll have the time to introduce your child to music, and maybe they'll want to learn an instrument. That is expensive, and you will be unlikely to find something useful at school unless you go to a good one.

Piano lol. Teach them something cool such as CS:GO for under £10 per life.
 
BRB, need to learn piano to be considered cultured.

WUT?
It was an example. I see it was too difficult for you to understand.

It could be anything, but it could easily be something that costs quite a lot of money.

This is all besides the point. A lot of people in the UK have a poor quality of life, and having children in bad financial circumstances contributes to this. If the poster wants a poor quality of life, and he want a poor quality of life for his family, then be my guest. Saying £25k is fine enough income for a good quality of life is wrong.

What exactly are you getting at with cultural exposure/cultural enrichment?

Surely at the very early years all a child needs is love and to be cared for.

I should imagine what he means is being engaged in healthy activities that makes you think, open your eyes to the world around you through nature, music and art..... Instead of being sat monged in front of a television and left to shart ones pants.
 
Good news everbody!

She's not pregnant, doctor thinks her period was delayed by the stress of thinking she was pregnant.

Going he after a 13 hour shift And have a few bottles
 
I had the exact same thing happen when I was with a girl back in my teens. The moment she got that news from the doctor she came on. The female form is blooming complex! What a relief though, so err... Congrats? Bag up? Etc.
 
I think I need to give up this job and go with the dull job with more money. I want to give this kid everything I didn't have as a kid.

I think there are probably a few ways to trick his partner in to aborting.


A tale as old as time, impending child provides the spark of spontaneity that causes a man to step up to the plate, be a man and provide for his family, internet troll recommends yanking the little cell ball out with a hook.

Oh internet, ye cruel mistress. Away with you PMKeates, you are an abomination. Back. BACK I SAY. BACK.

Abraxaz1, even though there is no baby, do not lose the spark that made you question your existence. Use that feeling, better your life.

My little boys mam wants to give it another go. Problem is though is that she told me to sling my hook about 5 months ago and told me to move on, and well I have. I've just had her on the phone upset and told her the score. I feel really bad and feel like I'm betraying my son in some way who means the absolute world to me. What a **** feeling :(

Why did you split in the first place?
 
She told you to sling your hook, she can't blame you for doing so. Evaluate why she wanted you to leave, and whether you would actually want to be back with her. If you do get back with her, refrain from trying for another one until you know you are sure.

It is not a betrayal on your son. Bringing another child into a potentially unhappy relationship would be far more detrimental to him than the possible benefits of having a sibling in such a situation. However as said, if you decide you want to have another go, make sure it's the right move. Chin up dude!
 
We split as to be honest we are totally different people and just aren't good together. Arguments, bickering different ideas etc. We won't get back together or anything I just know how I felt when the roles have been reversed in the past. Takes a lot to get over and I suppose I don't want her to go through that. Bloody hell it was easier when she was horrible to me! Thanks for the replies lads.
 
so what you're saying is, every family on less than £25k P/A has a bad quality of life?

I am a single ocupant renting from the council living on £11K P/A, I agree with this

things aren't terrible they are just bad. Plus not ebing able tosave for a decent holiday is depressing lol

The point (incorrectly) being made, was that because a person earns less than £25k means they and their family cannot be cultured. Do you agree with that claim?
 
Went on my third tinder date last night. She was very charming and quite pretty. She was around my height, lithe body and a cracking smile. The night progressed well, but it was clear that she was not going to sleep with me first night in, which is both ashame but quite nice, the hunt is always a unenjoyable but also intensely pleasurable part of courtship. She does bring my tinder date to sex ratio down to 33% however.
 
- Awesome lol

I've only been on three dates, that's probably why in fairness. I tend to leverage my sports hobbies as profile pics and the fact there some of the unusually flattering ones of me. However what I have realised is that once i get a date, the skills I've developed talking to patients during my degree have been damn transferrable towards chatting to ladies. Think along with the sociologist, there is a maths student who seems pretty interested, but whether its for something more serious than I'd like is yet to be seen.
 
Well it's been exactly 3 weeks today since I walked away from the 'relationship'. Still feel pretty **** about it all. Woke up this morning to see that the ex had sent a whatsapp message at 3am, just with a smiley ':D' and no other text. He's also blocked me now because his display picture has disappeared.

What a ******* ****. Why would anyone do that?
