The way I see it, they can say yes or no. Which is basically 50/50 so you have a 50% chance of passing this stage.
The rest of it is easy work as long as you're all young, fit, combat trained, able to fake at least 3 european accents, have solid bowel movements, have international underworld connections, a bit of business sense, and a small fortune in a swiss bank
Convince your loved ones to sell all of their material belongings, announce as a group that you are a band of undocumented Romanian gypsies, get deported, arrive in Romania, hoof it to the Ukraine border and claim to be Ukrainian refugees, be accepted into the UK,
Open the first Michelin recognized hotdog and burger food cart, sell your life rights to netflix, go back to the US with all your new money, shit in a paper bag, set it on fire, leave it on the doorsteps of people that have wronged you, go back to the UK, find out that the nearby shawarma shop has stolen your clientele, get depressed, get in a physical argument with the shawarma guys, get deported back to Ukraine,
Channel your anger into fighting the Russians, become known as the Ukrainian ghost sniper with 420 confirmed kills, die a hero, your grandchildren try to sell your war memorabilia on the dark web for vape money, uncover your hidden past as an American, they shit in a paper bag, light it on fire, then leave it on the front porch
I assume they don't charge you to get deported so there's a free ticket there and I'm no geographist but there's a couple countries that also use english as their official language
No offense to Americans, I understand some of you are great people, but I wouldn't need much of a reason to leave America at this point. If not for my safety, then for my sanity. If not for my sanity, then for eggs.
Ya I understood what you meant and it would be insane of me to legitimately think I'm the only one in this situation.
I've worked through a lot of cptsd to reprogram myself to take my own emotions into consideration. Parents have a huge effect on their kids. I was subconciously drawn towards people who reminded me of what was familiar, my parents, which most people couldn't be paid enough to deal with long term. I was constantly told by them and their "friends" that my job is to take care of them, that is why I was brought into this world. When your brain is still malleable, you tend to believe things as they are presented.
Yes I do try to only seek out people who I aspire to be like now but it's not always easy to figure out who someone truly is. Constant struggle between being forgiving and recognizing red flags for what they are.
I changed careers and cut off nearly everyone I was "friends" with prior to understanding what kind of people I was attracting with my personality. I do things that I want and enjoy now, I just don't know how to recharge my social battery back to where it was. If it's even possible.
When I burned out of the corporate world, I went back to school for horticulture and became a gardener. Nature bathing/green therapy is very real and I agree very important for people to do regularly to ground themselves in this chaotic world.
