Norwegian, hm...I think that my dictionary got lost somewhere:)) Just kidding:)))
Well you caught me on my words:))) OK OK in this region 3 languages are spoken: Ukrainian, Russian and English. Sometimes German. So I can write and speak on these languages. I know some Polish...but without any practise, I almost forgot it, luckily Polish is very similar to Ukrainian, only alphabets are different, that it is not a problem to speak it at all:))))
Hm...maybe I should learn some Norwegian now??:)
you really are a sad specimen Martin......people try to listen to you....try to see both sides of your arguement,and almost always offer some sort of compromise,do you listen?????.....do you hell....you still persist with your abusive rants towards toad and now it seems american men in general.
A good arguement here is welcome,as is good debate,neither of which you seem able to comprehend.If that tiny fact is beyond your capabilities Martin then go read your airline schedules to one your multiple personalities.
Hey,Martin. Your negativism and inappropriate postings have evolved further than just your unrelenting attack on Toad. I say that you are a better man if you can give up this tomfoolery,and reserve judgement of another human being in your own mind- Martin,it just brings the room down,and does not seem to do you justce either. This place is a support group,and not an alley where grown men defile each other with barbed words,and profane retorts. Now it seems less important the truth of the matter,then how it is dealt with .I am sure for any living being,it would matter what class of gentleman you are. I know that you have a relevant statement to make here. But Toad does too--whether he has been to FSU or not. He brings much needed character and inteigence to this forum. This is what I meant about being a contributor to this group.It really is your own decision. I only ask that you will forget this small fissure in the forum,and become a beneficial friend to our gathering, and serve to enlighten us all with the knowledge of your own unique experience. I for one will be reading.
This is to all and is just my observation of what has happened in this forum.
While I enjoy reading many of the posts, it has come to my attention that one person in particular is not a constructive character here and only serves to degrade any conversation no matter what the context is into his own personnel vendeta against what in my opinion again is a person that actually is a constructive character (and a character he is!).
But this is what I have to ask those who are here. Why do you even respond to this person that has nothing to say worth anything because he cannot let it go. Martin, frankly I don't care what the problem is and why you just won't let it go. This is the only time I will ever even mention your name, for it is not worth my time, nor those that come here for the advise, opinions, or just to talk to each other about whatever. Should I make a comment in response to whatever you had to say, then I am only fueling your ego because I let something you said get to me. I watch my children do the same thing, because that is the way you act. My kids will pick on one another just to get a reaction, and mind you they are 2, 4, and 6 years old. I watch time and time again, the people in this forum respond to this person of no value. Just ignore him. You know what it reminds me of. You get a sore and it scabs over, but you pick at it. You continue to do this and the sore never goes away, but ends up only leaving a scar. If you would of just left it alone, it would heal, no scar, and nothing to worry about. So I say to all of you in this forum, do what I am going to do, Ignore it! Don't even give him a second thought and if he feels the need to say something it is because noone will talk to him otherwise. Eventually every child gets bored when there is no response and will go play somewhere else. He can say what he wants about what I have written here and I will not repond one bit to it, and I ask that all of you do the same. I see to many threads with to many wasted words already about this person.
Just my 2 cents, and now I am broke again. Anyone want to pay for my kids college? =P
Ive seen alot of jerks come and go here over the last few years, but I'll tell you that you can line them all up and they all don't compare to this reject. And thats what you are loser, a reject. Alot of people here give this fool to much credit. Yes, you are a reject, just look in the mirror and there you are, a reject to society. I dont believe you have ever been anywhere, I dont believe ONE word you ever said here. Any FSU woman that would ever want to talk to you is on drugs, or has no serious intention of finding someone abroad. Continue your idiotic tirade you child. You are officially ignored. Obviously Olga and staff can do absolutly nothing about you polluting this site. Your not driving me away reject so keep it coming because your words are falling on deaf ears. Thats the last I have to say about this cancer we have on this site now.
Every once in a while I've heard comment that there must be something wrong with a western guy who would go to the FSU looking for a lady. I hear it from a lot of people. I could easily list all the resons that we do it and point out that, perhaps the more intelligent among us, are the ones willing to go so far - but giving all those arguments to you guys right now is like.... preaching to the choir. You already know it.
Then along comes one character - who makes us all look bad. On my best day - I could not put together a reasonable argument that Martin does not have major screws loose. Most other nut-cases (and we've had a few) are identified for what they are and they go away. Not this one - he continues to attack a guy who is now In RUSSIA - with an ongoing vendetta and his only reponse when asked why is "He started it."
I am going to TRY (I make no absolute promises but I WILL try) to ignore him as well from now on.
Since our moderators either can't or won't do the right thing I suggest that we all completely ignore his posts - don't comment on anything favorably or disfavorably. And when newbies come in who don't know anything about this guy and assume he's a "normal" contributor - perhaps we can correct them through private email.
Moderators did warn Martin, and banend some his IPs. it is impossible to ban somebody from the forum. one can change IP, can change registration. moderators will do best to clean up threads. Ignore him and may be he will loose interest in being here. again, everybody, if you want to say something to each not on a thread subject say it privately you see each other's emails.
we had alot of constructive discussions in the forum today. Martin you can be usefull to the forum, please be. do not continue your war here.
You said:

Do you realize that you and your lady will often get that negative attitude from USA people, especially woman. And may be you will feel so uncomfortable that you will decide to through her away?
Bagira: I don't know much about you. I have only read a few of your posts. I have to admit I know Ptichka and even Annika - though not personally - much better than you.
But I have a difficult time understanding why you are so negative.
I' am trying to figure out where you are coming from. Did you have a relationship with a western man that went bad? Or are you, perhaps, an aging Russian woman who resents the attention paid to younger Russian woemn? Or are you just someone who likes to "rain on the parade" of others?
Trust me - of all of the Russian women I have been involved with - and especially with the one that I am engaged to marry - NONE of my American friends will meet them and think that there is anything wrong wuth THEM or ME or anything like that. If ANYTHING they will compliment me as being the luckiest guy in the world! (And they will be right!)
My comment above - about people wondering if there is something WRONG with an western guy seeking an FSU woman refered topeople who have never MET ME - or the other guys here who are seeking such a woman. There is a stereotype - a popular myth - that such guys are so desperate for a woman because they have personality problems or something that they would "order" a woman (mail-order bride?) sight unseen.
My comment did not refer to anyone who actually knows me. Trust me. Those who do, do not question my intentions or my character.
As for "throwing her away"??? - I would be more likely to throw away the Hope Diamond, or a priceless piece of art. Its not going to happen.
