Respect...no argument here...
marcus...embarrassment is what we feel when we know we fucked something up that we shouldn't have...because we're supposed to be smarter than that...
Kudos for moving on...
---Update---
You're joking I hope...if you rely on your Mrs. then you're a bigger loser than I care to comprehend...
Are we not supposed to share in relationships with people we love?...does sharing not presuppose that one is in possession of something in order to be able to share?
if you're relying on someone you claim to love then I have only pity for you...but more so for the one you say "I love you" to...because you're not in a sharing relationship...you're in a business relationship and that relationship is not based on mutual respect or love...but rather mutual gain and will only continue as long as both parties continue to receive that which they need from the other...
That's codependency mate...not love...

Not much love and cameradie on this forum...I wonder if the Thais had an overseas forum dedicated to a bespoke profession...in a parallell universe would it be so riddled with bitching and moaning?
hmmmm
Yes probably

I've never understood this idea of supporting everyone who happens to have the same job as you. I certainly don't support everyone else in my profession--why should I? I do try to support people who need it, people who are mistreated, people who are abused, etc. Some of those are in my field, some aren't. Why should it matter?
Without sounding cheeky I'd like to know too. I wanted to sign the contract in person, shake hands, and then proceed but there was a time crunch. Truthfully on the phone and emails he seems like a nice guy so I don't think that would have helped.
Samsara or whatever also said I fucked up like a noob, once again not sure what a pro would have done.
I had to tell my school and students, but I could have waited to tell family and friends.
But nothing matters at all anymore as I just got the Tiger beer girl's phone number, and she is sweet. Is that karma... not sure.
"Is this really a Teachers forum?" Phil Hall
yes, but with a lower case "t", so we pretty casual
It probably doesn't - I have an old fashioned set of ideas - I'm over 40 - barely, using the comma instead of the parnathesis because my keyboard is shagged btw -
So flame on - but I get a feeling of running feuds and nefarious subterfuge that I will never be privvy to ...hmm I may try that phrase on the other english Teachers at my school....so have fun y'all

---Update---
I'm not here to teach you how to live your life...your parents should have done that...and supposedly you are a grown adult...I say supposedly because the following doesn't really strike as the actions of a grown adult...
But all that being said..what I object to mostly is you coming on here with a sob story looking for sympathy and justification...would have been more prudent to have just sorted it all out and then come by to let us know what happened...your timing smacks of poor me...the victims attitude...that's why I posted what I posted...
it also illuminated just how many victims are running around out there and that's what really sucks...all the respondents with their cheap platitudes...victims who go through life blaming others for their own ineptitude...sighting luck and karma as substitutes for taking responsibility for their own decisions...good and bad...
It's fucking stomach turning...

Ok you win the basic grammar quiz - please wake up and see that maybe my keyboard is screwed - there is no way that you and I could have a nice conversation if you keep on referring to a fundamental tome. I also teach Jazz guitar...have yoiu anything relevant to offer..maybe a few Jeff Beck licks?
