I hate these surveyors.

Used to have 'em come in all the time in the skinhead forums I used to browse.

Go 'way will ya?

I'm slowly finding that many external factors make it difficult for my gf to have a relatively stable life and relationship with me including family financial pressures, family socio-cultural pressures, and other differences between her family and my own (as well as our own inherent differences) that make it difficult for her to be at ease in our relationship. If you do not mind sharing, what types of external pressures affect your relationships adversely and how did you get passed it, if at all?

There is so many that I dont even bother having a relationship and don't bother looking for one either. My family keeps telling me that my life is passing me and going to waste....pffft like I care...cause and affect biatches.
