she was almost 9 years in our house, and moved to my sister's for the same job, i confided to her at times i got problems, she does the same, she's like a sister to me, early this week she asked my sister she wants to go home because she has her newfound textmate who also wants to meet her and promised her to bring her to his family somewhere in the south, i was really worried about her because she might just be cheated by a person we all don't have any idea who he is. but my friend insisted to meet her at once and promise too to bring him to her children for they are all married but the man is a widower and my friend is separated a couple of years back. in the first thought i was happy she has found someone she can lean on and for sure i know she wants him for companionship, how could we hold her? its her life she's fighting for now. but i think, its too soon to decide to settle down. can you spare some of your time? we talked to her already and held no choice.

I can relate to that because I also have a friend who have the same situation as yours. You know I don't think she will ever hear your advices as she is in her top of feelings right now. She might be cheated I'm afraid too of that. But she is an adult and she has her own feelings and life. Whatever her decision is, maybe we just have to accept it. All we can do is just wish her luck. She might have a happy ending or sad whatsoever. But at least she has experience loving a person again. Who knows their relationship will work out. So just pray that she will be guided and she will hopefully in the right track.

Hi there, it's nice to know that you and your house help get along well and a best friend at that. I'm also close to one of our house help so i can relate with you. I understand that you are worried about her situation because you don't know what kind of person she has to meet. But can't you trust her judgment of the person? It's nice to watch our friends being happy with their lives too, right? So, all we can do is give them some pieces of advice every now and then so that they can be reminded of things especially at times like this that we are in doubt of the things that she's getting into. Besides, I think she is old enough to know what she is doing...and that i am sure that whenever she have troubles , she will confide to you. Just be there for her at all times. God Bless!
