My kids have had passports since they were babies. Every 5 years we renew. And if the child is taken out of the country usually they require a notarized letter from the other parent stating that they have their permission. My husband was working overseas and knew I wanted to take the kids to Canada for a day trip which he was totally fine with. I was told I needed a letter even though they have passports because their dad wasn’t physically with us.

I don't think the situation is recoverable, to be honest. You broke up with her on Valentine's Day specifically so you could date someone else, and now you want to get back with her now that the other relationship didn't work out. That's not a sign that you're ready for a long-term, stable relationship, let alone trying to rekindle things with an ex. Let it drop, learn your lesson, move on.

Well, same for Europeans going to Asia, Africa or America. Travelling is expensive, but you grow so much as a person going abroad instead of travel your own country only.

Btw wasn’t meant as personal critism. Just an observation that a lot Americans have never left their country border. Maybe my thinking is different, I couldn’t live my life without discovering different places.

You're not a bad person, it was an accident, and as much as you wish you could've helped it, chances are if you'd caught it, it would've bitten the crap out of you. Wild dogs, especially injured wild dogs, will attack if they feel threatened. I don't know where you're located, but maybe Google animal control or animal services or wildlife rescues, and see if someone can keep an eye out for a limping dog.

It's absolutely not normal in America, and I'm saying this as someone who just renewed my kids' passports for an upcoming cruise.

The US makes it a huge pain to get a passport for a minor. It is only good for 5 years, you have to renew in person, and it's expensive (over $100). No one is going to all that trouble unless they are at least casually planning a trip, or live near the border.

He dumped her for another girl on valentine's day. 99% of people would want nothing to do with Him after that.

Sure, he realises he fucked up. But this isnt Hollywood. In real life, regretting that you were cruel or stupid doesnt magically make it OK or win you the girl. In real life? When you fuck up? You normally dont get to try again.

It's been a year. I guarantee she will almost certainly be either sewing slmeone else or wanting nothing to do with him.

But you don't understand. He's lonely and she's prettier than girm number 2!

I agree. He's put no thought into her feelings. He simply doesn't have a right to approach her again after the stunt he pulled.

If a man broke up with me on valentines day to go fuck done other woman, he's be dead to me. And if he came back a tear later to ask to try again, I'd tell him to go fuck himself in the most explicit language.

He's probably the last man on earth that girl 1 wants to see again.
