My relationship started here

Hey, I'm back :)

Now I know some people here don't like me, some even think I'm a phoney but I am real and I find it very hurtful seeing arguing over me. My last thread was removed because of the arguing and that arguing prompted me to make the decision to stay away from here to keep the peace amongst everyone. I became very anxious after the last time, so can we keep this peaceful?
It is nearing 6 months since I first joined you guys seeking advice on how to date a British guy. I believe it was thanks to you guys that he became my boyfriend. If anyone can recall the thread that was removed, I was on my way to the UK to see him. I have now been to the UK and I'm in the process of creating a video montage of my trip which I would like to share with you guys, because without your advice it is most likely none of this would have happened.

If you would like to see it when it's finished I will happily share it but if you want me to stay away then just say and I will go away. :)
Whoops-a-daisy :cool:

    You're clearly a mental but you seem nice and I enjoyed reading your questions and opinions, even if this is the first time I've said anything in one of your threads.

    I'd suggest that sharing a video montage may offer too much personal information unless handled very carefully, so please do be careful, and perhaps also check with the poor lad before sharing.
    Q: What kind of discussions aren't allowed?
    A: It goes without saying that this site's about MoneySaving.

    Q: Why are some Board Guides sometimes unpleasant?
    A: We very much hope this isn't the case. But if it is, please make sure you report this, as you would any other forum user's posts, to forumteam@moneysavingexpert.com.

    Just tell us how it is going? Did England turn out to be as you expected? How you were describing it, I would assume you realise it was quite different to the stereotype you imagined, but still found it charming and inviting? Was it a case of a dream coming true?

    What are the next plans?

    ps: The weather is September is NOT normally what it has been. You were very lucky to come at an exceptionally nice time. Just in case you decide to move here and think the weather isn't that bad after all!

    I don't know why you'd say people don't like you'
    I don't even know you.

    Take no notice of the "sarky" posts, Oduliet - glad you enjoyed your visit to the UK - how's the relationship going? Going to be long term/long haul do you think?
