In fact I had a similar idea. I thought that by pushing him to use a forum he could both improve a bit his English while also learning how to use a forum (since he isn't much into social media). However it seems that I miscalculated a bit because he has troubles understanding to begin with. Thus he is quickly losing his initial motivation.
It might have been too early for him, I don't know
. Probably I have to rethink my plan and take it slower. Thanks for your kindness anyway.

I do know learning the second language is not easy and it is required alot of courage,patience and determination.

Welcome to the forum butterb. Hope you enjoy being here, please write if you need any help.
Hi violetz, everyone has their down days, but I don't want to bring my unhappiness among others to make them feel the bad vibe. While it's hard to cope with the changing environment, America taught me to always bring a smile so others will always feel welcomed around you. I hear and I see things out of my control, but it doesn't help matter any better if I join the cries, our parents always taught us to be strong and stand up to it.
As we lived adulthood, we don't want the stress to get the best of us, because life is too short, we can't take anything for granted. We have to learn to love and appreciated what we have left and be strong for those that looked after us as a role model. I try to be polite and keep my own issue to myself. I looked happy in my picture, I looked happy in person, but I'm not happy with so many things.
Today, someone I cared so much for, lied to me. Take me as a fool, make me feel stupid, I really want to punch that person in the face and throw sand, but I can only breathe it in. It hurts deep inside, because I can no longer care for that person anymore. As much as I hate losing another love ones, I'm torn to stay around people I can't trust.
Sorry to hear about that Hunnie. Being lied to by a friend or relative sucks. I would definitely be torn too.
I guess I had to learnt that the hard way, anyway people make mistake and you cant fix the damage but you only learn from it. There're things you cherish in front of you that you wont realise until its gone. life goes on, and it best to stick with what you have and look forward to the future.
