Long story short: Will you marry me ?

Send her a photo of 'your' tiny tackle. If yours won't suffice, someone on CUK can help

If the tiny willy doesn't do it, the fact you send her a naked pic of your bits might.

Fail!

You never know the kind of fetish women have.

Does she know about GF?

Caution should be exercised, I should think. You may need to consider making up a whopping lie.

BTW, about that colony on Mars...

[QUOTE=jamesbrown;2060066I mean, what's the "let's think about this" part, FFS?[/QUOTE]

Because, for a while, I thought "hell, why not, get to live in (other country) with a nice woman, start a whole new life, what the heck!"

It took maybe 30 mins for it to dawn on me that in fact that's not what I want to do. I think the idea becoming a reality made me consider it seriously for the first time. And duly considered, I realised that I don't want to move and start over with a woman I don't know very well.

If its in the country that I am thinking of, you could just say that you like working there, on occasion, but don't fancy making your life there?

If its with the same company that I am thinking of, do you not think that, perhaps, she would like the opportunity of getting a spouse visa and coming to live/work in the UK?

A contract (however long running) is not worth getting married for...

Yes she does. I'm VERY open to suggestions about a whopping lie.

Tell her you are into necrophilia, sadism and bestiality. It may work or you might be just flogging a dead horse.

Does she?

This sounds more complex than you're letting on. Particularly since you actually [albeit it for 30 mins] considered actually taking her up on the idea.

The lie needs to be something you can carry through to work, I assume? An easy one might be telling her that you're sadly going to need to drop contact with her, as GF has discovered your secret flirtation.

I don't think it's the country you're thinking of, but that line could still work really well

If its with the same company that I am thinking of, do you not think that, perhaps, she would like the opportunity of getting a spouse visa and coming to live/work in the UK?

Same company, but no, she would never want to come to live and work in the UK

Yeah I know. Stockholm syndrome, I've been doing this so long I feel like a hostage with no options

Good advice, thanks!

Definitely won't work. Sounds like she's in so deep emotionally* that something like that wouldn't put her off.


*i.e. a dangerous state of infatuation that should be approached with care

Gawd. I think the best outcome is to pretend you thought she was joking. She'll be embarrassed and never mention it again, but will, of course, think that you're a complete twat, which doesn't bode well for a productive working relationship, but you never know.
