I'm sorry things aren't working out the way you hoped, especially after all your deliberation. I agree with Outhere, I think you need to talk to him. You need to make sure he's aware that your connection has changed to a romantic relationship rather than just friends "with a bit more" (I'm trying not to say it!). I think he's being very unfair by not giving you the "relationship" yet not wanting you to spend time with other males. Cake and eat it, perhaps? Don't invest too much in this until you know exactly where you stand with him.

Do be aware that you could end up in court/jail if you're not careful. Don't name people in arguments, don't insult people, don't take the **** out of people. Do be nice, do be aware that what you say is never, ever private and can be held against you. Don't give out personal detail or contact details. Do be careful what photos you post.

I will give feedback, just isting the points that disappointed. I couldn't say anything at the time as I really was in a rush due to kids finishing school (service was a bit slow too :) ) I've spoken to the manager before today and he seems a reasonable man so I'll give my feedback and see how he responds. If he takes my points on board then I will go back, but not for at least a month.

I'm on a contract so don't know if they can run up my bill? I just told them I wasn't born yesterday and hung up. Is it really worth reporting to the police or Al Ameen?

Didn't you know EW has a classifieds section? Or you could place an ad on Dubizzle. It put paper ads on notice boards. Or you could hope that someone sees your question here and buys it?

check the packages. I have an iPhone, DH has a BB. He was thinking about changing to iPhone but as of a couple of months ago neither Du nor Etisalat had decent data packages for use overseas. DH spends a huge amount of time overseas so needs to be able to send and receive emails, and sometimes have access to the internet. It's included in his Etisalat BB package for round about AED 400 but I couldn't find an equivalent for the iPhone. Shame, as I love my iPhone.

Thanks Ladies. It's been a long time since I've been. I have the markets pegged as being open very early, couldn't remember about the souks and had no idea what time the abras started running. We're on a very tight schedule today (have to come from RAK) so wanted to maximise our time showing a guest around.

My understanding is that you are in the wrong if you have room to move out of the way of a faster car and fail to do so. Also, don't assume that any car that hits you up the back is automatically in the wrong, especially if you hit the brakes.

She was too young to die and her addictions caused her and her family a lot of pain. An addict is not an addict by choice as some judgemental people presume. Addicts suffer a lot and at most times are helpless & unable to give up their habits. RIP Whitney. what nonsense - an addict is an addict by choice; they choose to take what ever they take. And no, they don't suffer half as much as the people that are near them. So it wasn't you struggling to give up smoking last year then? its still a choice - i choose to either smoke or not smoke. You stopped and you started again. You "chose" to fail. I would hope that someone who has found it difficult to kick a habit that is bad for them would have more empathy. <em>edited by Sanddy_Dogg on 12/02/2012</em>

Or he could be telling the truth and just into ready to put his trust into someone and potentially get hurt again. I wouldn't try and force the issue though - don't put too much effort into trying to change his mind as that'll make hm run for the hills.

Good for you! There is a resident vet at RAK Animal Welfare Centre. There is a coffee morning every Thursday morning on the corniche, I've never been but I understand it's well attended. Same again Yes, you can Don't know, but there are several. There are a few museums and also an area, similar to Deira all around the pearl roundabout Several places making curtains, don't know about furniture (although there is a nice shop called Maison Chic which is similar to Marina). Yes. Bars in the Golf Clubs and all the hotels. You can also email me on lazylakite @ yahoo . co . uk

No. If you go away it would be a good idea to turn them off, especially the water heaters as there's no point heating water if there's no-one using it. Otherwise leave the switches on and turn the appliances off when not in use.

Yes, but not for a couple of years. A representative came into to the school to talk about the activities, accommodation, staff, health & safety precautions etc and to answer questions. DD went once, possibly twice. She had a great time and if they haven't changed then I'd have no problem recommending them. they work with quite a few schools in dubai
