Hey allSo today at work they asked me about working in Pakistan for a week. It is an opportunity but I am confused. There is another reason to go...but I am unsure. I don't wish to force something, would prefer to go it is meant to be. Would appreciate some insight as I am too confused emotionally to read clearly, Grateful, Sparkling IP: Logged |

ring-heart-garden are you thinking of going for a love interest as well as the working? this says you will connect with someone romantically in a place of gathering ...if not romance, then it will be a very emotionally rewarding experience for you IP: Logged |

Oh my! YES, my ex boyfriend is there...had to move back and was so difficult when he left in October. I had let him go and we haven't messaged in a few weeks but work presented this idea that we need to go there for work...so yes I was all confused! Sparkling P.s what the cards? heart in the middle?

Hi Yes am thinking it through carefully, will do a risk assessment and am asking friends of friends who have been to Pakistan. We have risk managers who will say no if deemed too risky. It is something I am still unsure of. Sparkling IP: Logged |

Risk manager said NO. Very unsafe for those working in international education...I am pleased not to go...not safe enough. I wouldn't have anyone to look out for me either. Sparkling IP: Logged |
