Good afternoon gentlemen,
Please forgive my ignorance, I am new to the site and spend a few minutes to read some of the experiences you have all been kind enough to share.
For the most part I must say that the overall picture is rather disappointing.
I have had a couple of bad experiences myself with the scams but, being somewaht hopeful I have not given up just yet.
Having grown up in western Europe, I believe I can have a more meaningful relationship with a European background lady as compared to most Americans hence my search.
I have just met what I think is a very special lady in Sumy, Ukraine from one of the sites.
She speaks and writes English so no translator service.
I am thinking of a way to invite her here instead of me going there, I know getting a visa will be a problem.
Any suggestions or insight for you ladies and gentlemen will be deeply appreciated.
Good luck to you all.
Sincerly,
Sire.
Sire,
You don't say where 'here' is but the chances of her getting a visa to come to you are, at best, minimal. If one wants to achieve the end goal then one needs to put in the legwork and get their backside on an aeroplane to FSU.
