Recoil Posted January 20, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 20, 2011 (edited) Lol KR Lisa - Thats an impressive memory. I was married and the plan was for both of us to come over. We ended up getting a divorce around the same time my Case Officer was assigned. So she went her way (london) and I stayed in SA for a bit longer and eventually got my visa. I then activated my Visa in november 2009, sold my house and car and moved to perth in Feb 2010. My Ex and I did not have any kids so that luckily didnt add any complications to our situation.On the Singles side - I've met loads of people, but none that have really appealed to me. Many australians I have met here are very cliquey. They are all very friendly but its really hard to break into their friendship circles that they have had since school days.

GI dont find that so at all, I have met quite a few who are keen to make friends because many of their school buddies all moved over east!

This whole cliquey thing happens to a lot of us when starting off in a new Country. Remember, all our childhood memories are in SA, schooling and of course what made all of us today, our family and of course friends. Very sad for most of us, as that void will never be filled! Sure you will find friendship circles to break into soon enough..... E Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enrica Posted December 8, 2011 Report Share Posted December 8, 2011 There is a facebook group called Local is Lekker , perhaps join there and see if anything comes of it.There were a few singles at the picnic on Sunday, its a pity that not more singles come and join these things.I do realise that its very off putting that its mostly couples, but if we cant get you guys togther, then its not going to work!!!
