    No, I am a dual national.

    And your plan is for me to contact an agency, but you don’t know what agency?

    There are many job offers for expats.

    Cool. Get me one.

    As a UK citizen I think it’s even easier to live in an EU country then a US citizen.

    Oh, you think so.

    I asked you for a plan. You’ve given me a bunch of vague and unhelpful shit after admonishing me for doing my best.

      Hey, you’re tasking me to get you a job right now. That’s not how it works. I’m not saying you’re not ding your best, I’m just pointing out your initial argument makes other European countries look like expats aren’t welcome and we all force gay people into conversion therapy.

      Oh, you think so.

      Yeah, because there are deals between the UK and EU to make working abroad simpler, so I think so, yeah.

      And your plan is for me to contact an agency, but you don’t know what agency?

      I’m a national, I’ve never dealt with any. But expat friends did. A simple Google search led me to this:

      NL:

      https://www.expathelp.nl/

      https://hollandexpatcenter.com/en/settling-in/

      https://living-in-holland.nl/toolbox/

      Norway:

      https://www.expat.com/en/guide/europe/norway/

      https://norwayexpat.com/

      https://www.lifeinnorway.net/norway-immigration-guide/

      Germany:

      https://www.iamexpat.de/

      https://expatra.com/germany/living-in-germany/

      https://expatguides.de/

      France:

      Forget France. There is only one place with Nice people. Even if they speak English, they refuse to because of French pride. I’m partly joking ofc, but France wouldn’t be my first pick if you’re not a French speaker.

      Just Google “expat help [country]” and you find loads of sources which can help. Countries love expats, there are too many jobs and too few workers.

      No need to be so offensive mate.

        Read your own fucking posts before you tell other people not to be offensive. Or did you forget you accused me of putting my child in danger because I’m stupid? Because I sure as fuck didn’t.

        Also, not one of those sites will give me a job right now or get me into those countries tomorrow. You admit you have no fucking clue what you’re talking about, so how about shutting the fuck up?

          I never said that. I would never. Please don’t put words into my mouth.

          You admit you have no fucking clue what you’re talking about,

          Again, putting words in my mouth. Please don’t. I never said that.

          Read your own fucking posts

          admit you have no fucking clue

          so how about shutting the fuck up?

          Dude. Chill out a bit. Your getting angry at things you imagine I said, which I never did. No need to curse. I’m going to leave this conversation now, I feel like I’m feeding a troll. Welcome back to Europe, please know you don’t need to be so extremily angry all the time anymore. You’re safe now. Have a nice day.

            You absolutely did.

            I said I brought my daughter to the UK for safety, and your response was:

            You clearly didn’t do your research when moving to Europe, and clearly have no clue on how other European countries are.

            And then I explained to you why I made my choice and you continued down that road with:

            Why didn’t you say you’re a UK citizen? So you’re not a US citizen and you moved back to your country of origin? I can understand that, although I still would have checked other countries first since the current state of the UK isn’t that attractive right now.

            So yeah, you absolutely accused me of putting my daughter in danger because I’m stupid.

            Just because you didn’t literally use those words doesn’t mean that’s not what you said… and you must really think I’m stupid if you want me to believe otherwise.

            So no, I won’t chill out and I didn’t imagine anything.

            I’m going to leave this conversation now

            Good. I never wanted you in it to begin with.
