This is getting to be anoying. Sorry guys I just need to vent. I'm not giving up on my local ladies. I visited a local singles site and decided to message a woman who's profile said she was living in my city. I get a reply and she wants me to write to her on her personal email address. Guess what kind of email address it was? Russian! Again! That damn place seems to have been invaded by them. I had tons of old emails on that account. I haven't checked it in months. Over half of the messages were from Russian women. A few of them did not hide that fact. But a large portion of them posed as US women. What the hell? This last one I was duped into writing said she promised to show me she is real is I write her. What kind of sense is that? I'm supposed to believe her after misrepresenting herself. That's even if it's a she! Sorry it has gotten to be a bit frustrating. What the hell?!
Scammers will use free personals and personals in america or ecomomic countries. Places where people believe most men have money. That was the beginning of my getting on this site or how I found it.The beautiful lady emailed for a few days then ask that I correspond and pay an agency. The agency is listed on google as writing letters to men from ladies that do not exist. You may be like myself and have more ideas about life in common with FSU ladies. Be very careful from sites that are not listing ladies in the FSU. Never send money. That is the rule I use! Frustrating, I know how you feel. Does that come before or after anger? Just a little concerned about your experience with scams! I hope you don't have any. I have not been a sucker YET but I have been tried many times.
Thanks for the advice. I know what you mean. I have written to some Russian women that have responded to other ads I have. These did not try to hide the fact that they were not the women my ad as intended for. Most of them eventually asked me for money. As a few of the guys here may remember the $400 for a microwave request. Another asked that I send her half the money for a visa and a plane ticket. I have another right now professing her love for me and I have yet to tell her anything about myself. HAHAHA Then there was another who initally called herself by one name then all other emails to me she used a totally different name. She also was professing her love for me and pretty mush said I was the best thing since sliced bread. When I finally noticed the name thing I send her an email asking for her to tell me what the deal was with the names. I haven't heard back from her in 2 months now. LOL So I'm here on this service and well am not too impressed. Many of the women don't have a whole lot to say. At lest not the ones that have contacted me and said they are interested in getting to know me. I write volumes they write maybe a few lines and rarely answer all the questions I put to them. I don't know if it's because my letters are too complex for them or what. I suppose they use translators or some of those translation applictions. They are horrible. I speak both English and Spanish fluently and tested a few out. They can translate simple stuff fine. They garbled anything near a normal conversational level. I even asked them if I write too much or if they are having trouble understaning my messages. They say no they love that I tell them so much. Whatever the reason it sure is a let down.
Groon, How soon do you want a woman. Preferably sooner than later? If you stay with your local singles site, it could take years before you find someone you're happy with. Been there, done that!
The first rule of Date Club is never send money
The second rule of Date Club is NEVER send money
The third rule of Date Club is if she asks for money, the date is over
The fourth rule of Date Club is if you haven't seen Fight Club, you won't get the humour in the first three rules!
I'm in no rush. It happens when it happens. If it happens at all. It's just... I don't know... disheartening to put so much energy on all my messages to these women and to have them seem to ignore my questions. One woman I told her about my weekend then asked some small questions. In her reply to my message she onlt answered one question then asked me what I did on my weekend?! I just don't know....
lol you see what I'm saying? I can the same responce here why bother looking half way around the world to find women that only pay half attention? And what's worse if I'm paying for it. Here I can get that for free!!! LOL
LOL I wish I knew what was up with these ladies. They say they are very interested but their messages don't communicate that very well. Kinda feels like I'm wasting my time. If I am misreading this whole thing then I ask one of the vets in this place to clear it up. I do admit this whole thing is still new to me.
Groon, I also have noticed that a good many letters I get in return for mine are rather short and not exactly relevant to mine. If I had to put a percentage on it, it seems to me 70 are fluff and 30 are real. I am am cautiously optimistic that I did find someone with whom I can really connect, all I can say is don't give up.
About ladies.Yes they are interested, but they also know that 70% of men who wrote them will never write them back after first responses. Ask an average lady how many letter she got in the first week when her ad was placed in a catalog and how many men were still writing her in two months after that. Some men disappear after few months of correspondence and long detailed letters...Thats why many girls just dont bother for the first couple of weeks to send good responses. They write short messages just to keep a correspondence alive. They want to see who is really serious and who is really worth their attention. Men choose and ladies have a right to choose too. Sometimes you may think that this process is really difficult from your side only...but please understand ladies have same problems. It takes time ot real chemistry that happens sometimes with the very first message when both understand that this is her man( his girl). It happens but not very often. For other people its a long proces of writing letters and analizing those, trying to sort things out and get rid of the rubish.And it works the same from both sides. As I alreday said, there can be female scammers and male scammers. Male and female heartbreakers. Just keep going and if you have a certain idea of what your girl should be-keep up to this and dont give up.
It takes time. It took me 4 months here until I found my lady. In the months after we sent eachother probably close to a hundred photos each and we connected through our letters right away. Before our meeting we probably exchanged over a hundred letters and talked maybe 10-15 times over the phone (many flowers also). During our meeting we fell in love and now talk to each other as much as 2 times a day and still exchange letters often although its getting a bit expensive for me as I am not on the same terms with the agency as before our meeting. I plan on buying her a computer soon, and after we get her K1 visa her parents may have it so they can keep in constant contact with her. So keep digging guys, if your dedicated to this you will find her eventually as I did.
I agree totally Olga, these things take time, and it is much easier for us to write personal letters, I agree that as soon as they have chosen you as someone they would like to write to, then your letters will become more personal
This is a 2 way interview. How are you supposed to know enough about the lady to determine if it will be a good fit if they don't really write more than just "Hi, how are you doing?" for a while?
Groon and do you open your soul and heart in real life to the person whom you met 5 minutes ago???:) Think that you don't...and from e-mail you want that girls write you deep letters without seeing who you're first, without making any image of you??? I think it's not possible. I think that when people make friends in real life, and when there is a hope for more then friendship, people also are careful too!!! As feelings are easily hurt, and cured very very hard...IMHO
